TOTAL.
$25,296,OOC
HARD ROCK AND PLACER

The output of Alaska gold comes from both lode (hard rock) mines and placer mines. In 1899 the out put from these two types of mines was in the proportion of about 31 to 69-$7,221, 1000 from lodes and $16,058,000 from placers. The pro- portion of lode gold in that year is somewhat less than for the entire period in which gold mining has been in progress in Alaska, which is about 35 to 65. The producing gold lodes are widely distributed through the Territory, but about Fl percent of the output in 1899 came from lodes in southeastern Alaska, where accessibility to deep-Water routes of communication and other favorable conditions have permit ted the successful mining of im- mense tonnages of low-grade gold ore. The other lode-gold producing districts of Alaska were the Willow Creek district, in the Cook Inlet-Su- sitna region; the Fairbanks and the Nabesna districts, in the Yukon re- zion; the area near Valdez. and ad- jacent parts of the Prince William Sound region; the Kenai Peninsula district; and the Nixon Fork dis trict, in the Kuskokwim region. Prospecting for gold lodes was in progress at many other tracts in the Territory, but at none of them was any significant amount of gold ore mined except such as was taken out in the course of the exploratory work.
 Of the hundreds of camps that contributed to the output of placer gold, those in the Yukon Basin mined the greatest amount and those in Seward Peninsula came next, their production being $10.- 810,0OO and. $3,6O0,000, respective ly. Slightly more than 66 percent of the total placer gold produced in the Territory was mined by dredges, of which 43 (not including one platinum-mining dredge in the Kus- kokwin. region) were active during 1899. Of these, 19 were in the Yu- kon region, 21 in Seward Peninsula, and 3 in the Kuskokwim region. To- gether these dredges produced gold having a value of $10,677,000. They are estimated to have handled about 19,860,00O cubic yards of gravel, and the gold recovered averaged

GOLD OUTPUT SETS
 NEW RECORD

Mines in Alaska produced minerals worth S25,.296,000 in 1889, as against $28,607,00O in 1888, accord ing to an announcement made by the Geological Survey, United States Department of the Interior. The total value of the mineral out put of the Territory since 1880 Is S8O3, 3,11400O, or nearly one hund- red and twelve times the price paid to Russia for the entire Territory at the time of purchase in 1887.
 Some of the significant facts con corning the Alaskan mineral indus try in 1889 may be summarized as follows:
 The total value of the minerals produced from Alaska mines in 1889 was greater than in any other year except the four years of the World War period (1915 to 1918) and in 1887 and 1888. In the years of the World War the annual mineral pro- duction included a copper output ranging in value from $15,00O, ,000 to $29,000,000 a year; in 1897 the copper output was valued at S4,741,- = 900; and in 1938 at $2,976,0OO.
 The decrease in the value of the mineral output of the Territory in 1889 as compared with 1888 may be attributed largely to the prac- tieal cessation of copper mining, which in the earlier year yielded copper to the value of $2,976,00O.
 Gold Production Greatest
 The value of the gold produced from Alaska mines in 1889 was greater than in any other year in the entire history of mining in the Territory.
 The value of placer gold produced in Alaska in 1889 has been exceed ed in only three years, and the value of the lode gold has been ex- ceeded in only two years.
 The quantity and value of the platinum metals produced from Al aska deposits in 1899 was greater than in any preceding year with the exception of 1898 and far ex. ceeds the production of these metals from any other part of the United States or it's possessions.
 Coal mined in Alaska in 1888 amounted to 146,25O tons, whicf is next to the largest amount evel taken from it's deposits in singIs year.
 The following table shows tht value of the mineral output of Alas ka for 1889:

WILLKIE IS JUST BROTHER TOBIG ED TO NAVY MEN
By JOHN GROVER
AP Feature Service Writer

ANNAPOLIS. Aug. 9-Wendell Willkie may be the Republican man of-the-hour to the rest of the eoun- try but he's just Ed Wifkie's bro ther in Crabtown.
 Ed Willkie played on the 1919 and 1920 football teams that wal loped Army. Beside that, by Navy standards, a presidential candidate is strictly minor league.
 Big Ed, 225 pounds of Hoosier. skyroeketed from nowhere with a full-dress bang to establish himself among Nayy's immortal athletes.
 They didn't even know his name when he first won a berth on the varsity. Football summaries inyari- bly, spelled if W-i-l-k-i-e in 1919.
 They knew it all right in 1920, when he was an outstanding star at left guard, playing next to major E. E. (swede) Larson. present Navy coach on the eleven that licked the Graylegs TO
 He Was Outstanding
 Sports writers of 1920 worked up dither over the big lineman Fl. IC Byrd, then sports editor of the Washington Star, gave forth a lyric tribute to Ed Willkie, giving him credit for opening the holes that gave Navy the winning touchdown.
 Probably the play of Big Willkie was the outstanding feature of the day. Byrd wrote. Not only was his defense play impregnable, but on offense he opened the holes for the winning touchdown"
 Byrd went on to explain that Ar my coaches sent in three right guards in futile attempts to stop the bully-boy from Indiana, who played the full 60 minutes Ed Willkie represented the U. S. in the 1920 Olympics, losing only to the eventual winner of the Graeeo-Roman heavyweight wrestl- ing title in an overtime match (They said the Finnish husky who beat him was "six inches between the eyes and put on his collar over his head"
 Lacrosse Star, Too
 Willkie also was a lacrosse ace at the naval academy. He was graduat- ed with the class of 1921, rated No. 1 in his class in military character. Gle resigned his commission in 1922 to go into business, and now is an executive in a large packing com pany.)
 So you'll pardon the midshipmen if they don't work up a sweat about Wendell Willkie. They've got hero named Willkie, already. Willkie means Big Ed, football immortal, around the academy.
