SOUTHERN PHOSPHATE ROCK.
Product Since Mining Began in 1857
Valued at $162, OOO, 900.

From the Manufacturers Record.
Phosphate mining began in this country
on a commercial scale In 1867 In South
Carolina. and since then 80 64O, $40 tons of
rock. valued at $162. 329. 275. have been
marketed. OF the total South Carolina
has marketed 11.2OO.O74 tons; Tennessee,
which began to produce in 1904. 6.4S3. 9s3
and Florida, which came into the market
in 1888. has sold 2O,371,2 80.
Practically all Of the phosphate rock
mined in the country has been produced
in the south, the figures Of Tennessee in
Guiding a small production in Kentucky
and Arkansas.
How much phosphate rock remains in
the south cannot be estimated. Last year
there was prospecting in new field in
central Kentucky. which 1t Is thought
may become a considerable producer. and.
in the same year. Investigations in a field
embracing parts of Idaho, Wyoming and
Utah became the basis OF an estimate
that the field had a productive capacity Of
$500. 900 600 tons.
Exhaustion Of the southern fields Is not
likely to occur shortly. But when 1t
comes the western fields will probably be
more accessible. 30 that no one need

FAVORED CANDIDATES.

They send good reports of Milo Kelley from Juneau, and in fact all other parts of Alaska where he is known. It seems to be generally conceded that he is one of the four candidates who is certain to be elect ed from this division to the House of Representatives. And it will not be because of personal effort upon his part for he sailed for the outside a couple of weeks ago and win be gone until after the election is over. But he is regarded as one of the best qualified men for the place. And he is practical miner who has worked in Alaska for fifteen years and appre- ciates the needs of his class. Then again location favors him. The im- portance of the westward mining sec tion is just as much entitled to recognition as is the important coal and oil town of Katalla to the east ward And for that reason alone many of the voters in all sections of the division will cast their ballots for Milo Kelley, of Knik, and Capt. Bob Gray, of Katalla.

startled the thinking men of the states in his vigorous denunciation of the Pinchot theroies as applied to Alaska. He has been the means of opening the eyes of thousands to the iniquity of the policy as applied to Alaska, and is largely responsible for the turning of sentiment that is now beginning to favor the development of Alaska instead of continuing in the ruinous inactivity of the past few years. As member of the Sen ate Geo. E. Baldwin would work night and day to secure the endorsement of Congress to measures that would mean the opening up and develop ment of the Boring river and Matan- uska coal fields.

STANDARD GAUGE FOR ALASKA

As the Daily Alaskan was the first publication to take issue with Secre- tary Fisher in his Utopian dream of operating the five foot gauge equip ment of the Panama Railroad on the in Alaska, it is with some satisfaction that we find our argument endorsed throughout the land. Newspapers generally have ridiculed the idea and technical journals have shown the utter impossibility of utilizing the Panama equipment. Mr. Fisher, him. self, when he came to Seattle a fort night since, carefully refrained from putting out any additional ''press dope" on this plan that has only ser ved to bring forth some stinging criticism on the administration. In the August number of "The Worlds Work" is found fine series of artic- les on the Panama Canal, that en- gineering accomplishment that all patriotic Americans are following with so much pride. Farnham Bish- op contributes an article on The Builder of the Canal" and in the course of his interesting story he says.
 When asked his opinion (Col.
 Goethals) of the scheme to use the
 Panama Railroad and Canal equip
 ment, after it is no longer needed
 on the Isthmus, for building Govern
 ment railroads in Alaska, Col.
 Goethals replied Its advisability
 must be determined by two things: The cost of transfer and the character of roads to be built. If what are contemplated are comparatively short
 isolated lines running from the coast
 to the coal fields, then our five foot
 gauge equipment would probably (
 we'll enough. But if the Govern
 ment is going in for railroad build- 1 ing there on a large scale, there
 would be no economy in anything but new and standard gauge equipment AS for transferring the organization from Panama to Alaska, they will be
 none left to transfer"
 This gentle hint, coming from the uilder of the canal and one of Ameri- cas foremost engineers, ought to for | ever put quietus on the plan of Secretay Fisher in his effort to have | the government operate the Alaska Northern with narrow gauge equip ment.

CANDIDACY OF GEO. E. BALDWIN

If there is any question concerning the strength of feeling possessedby that sturdy Alaskan pioneer, Geo. E. Baldwin, over the inherited rights of the people of this northland, it will only be necessary to read an article published in another column. Upon every possible occasion the voice and pen of MT. Baldwin has been raised and used against the injustice that a horde of shadow dancers" would inflict upon Alaska. MT. Baldwin was one of the first men to aid in the development of the mineral resources of Southwestern Alaska, and particu larly of the Copper river countcy. He is g. man of the people; he knows their needs, and he appreciates the injustice that is being done in lock- ing up the valuable resources of this section of the country. While at times his language is forceful and more than vigorous, it is because of his relization of the great iniquities that have been visited upon patient and more deserving people.
 MT. Baldwin has spent the hes1 or his life in Alaska, and thoroughly understands the conditions here and the needs of the people. He is man of convictions and of sturdy honesty His views on Alaska, expressed be- fore the American Mining Congress and other organizations, have been sound and convincing. He is a man who believes in upbuilding and devel- opment. And it is because of these and other facts that the Daily Alas kan takes pleasure in supporting the candidacy of MT. Baldwin for a seat in the Senate of the new Legislative Assembly, that will convene at June au in March next. We consider by education, training and experience, that he is eminently qualified to we'll and faithfully srve the best interests of the people of Alaska, in the new Legislature.
The Chitina leader., 1912-10-29
PRONOUNCED ADVOCATES

T. B. Tansey and Geo. E. Baldwin have pronounced views with refer ence to the immediate opening of the Alaska coal fields. After they get to Juneau they may be expected to work up sentiment that will result in a strong memorial to Congress declaring the desires of Alaskans on this burning subject. And of course Capt. Bob" Gray of Katalla, will be one of the most enthusiastic support CTS of the measure in the House.
The Chitina leader., 1912-10-29
A VITAL QUESTION

There are reports going around in dicating that one of the candidates for Senator has declared that he doesn't care anything about the open ing of the coal fields. That he came to Alaska to make stake and that he intends to get out so soon as it is made. MT. Willard is quoted by a Valdez paper as having so declared himself at a Pinchot meeting held in that town year ago. If those are his views it hardly seems possible that Seward, Cordova, Katalla and the Copper river country will flock in very great numbers to the support of man who has so little concern in one of the vital questions of the hour.
The Chitina leader., 1912-10-29
COPPER RIVER CHOICE

From all accounts the Copper river people are beginning to realize that they entitled to a Representative in the Legislative Assembly, and that to secure representation it is neces- sary that they unite on one man for the office. And they have about con- cluded that the strongest candidate is E. H. Gilman, of Chitina About everybody along the line will vote for him. Some will vote for Mir. Barrett and two candidates from other sections of the territory.

Final crop reports show the largest corn crop but one, the largest wheat crop but two, the largest oats crop without exception. In the states business is brisk and sanguine. Everything roseate, if politics does not impose the check of tariff tinker ing. In the meantime Alaskans are playing a waiting game.

PROGRESSIVE DEVELOPMENT.

Reports indicate that Geo. E. Bal dwin is in good favor at Chitina and other interior localities. The strong stand that he has for years taken re- garding the necessity for opening the coal fields of Alaska has made him general favorite in those sections where they appreciate the iniquity of tCe present system that locks up our resources. Such strong advocates of development as George E. Baldwin and T. B. Tansey are entitled to, and will receive, generous support in their candidacy for Senator, in the towns of Cordova, Katalla, Chiti- na, and other Copper river sections.
The Chitina leader., 1912-10-29
