Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Phosphate Industry of the United States Sir: I have the honor to hand yon herewith a special report relating to the phosphate industry of the United States. This report has been prepared in compliance with the following resolution of the Senate: In the Senate op the United States, December 4, 1890. Resolved, That the Commissioner of Labor is hereby directed to examine and report the extent of the phosphate industry in the United States, the number of laborers employed, and the opportunities for the employment of labor in the future development of the phosphate deposits. The obstacles in the way of securing full information have resulted in many delays in answering the above resolution. At the date of its passage the phosphate industry had not been developed to such an extent in the state of Florida as to warrant very complete statistical information, while in South Carolina the industry had become settled and the conditions well known. The first attempts, therefore, to collect classified data relating to the industry were not particularly satisfactory. Many establishments were getting into working order, while others were closing up. A delay was thus unavoidable, but the delay resulted in far more complete information than could have been secured at an earlier date. As it is, this report practically brings the facts relating to the industry down to the first day of January of the present year. No effort has been made to follow along lines of other official reports, yet such reports have been most carefully studied for the purpose of corroboration and the avoidance of errors. It is true, however, that no other official report has taken up the industry in accordance with the exhaustive plans adopted by the Department under the resolution of the Senate.
