statistical and other information about
both tho phosphate industry and the

ment will bo presented, for instance,

beds. This will show that the royalty
tho State has received from crude rock
has reached the enormous sum Of 3d.
241 400 O6. The smallest amount oflroy.
atty paid in any ono year was in 1870
when it was $l,989. so. The largest
amount reooived waa in 1887
$337, ,150. Since then there has
been considerable decline ow.
ing to tho necessity OF reducing
tho royalty por ton and to the rap.
idly developing competition as new do
posits are discovered and opened up in
othor countries. Tho royalty this year
will bo lesB than last. Tho report will
also show tho development Of the forti-
lizer businoss in foroiblo manor.
From the time tho privilege tax on fer.
