Kondratowicz had authority with the miners as well. The scholarship under his name was established in 1902 at Warsaw Technological University and later on he took the doctorate degree in Krakow Mining Academy. The deputy member of the second and the third State Duma Zukowski – on the contrary – having succeeded in trade and commerce, was generally engaged in politics and charity. The deputy member of the fourth State Duma – Lempicki after more than 20 years of active work in Polish mining industry took part in the political life of independent Poland.
