oYEsPopuLATlos IS COMING.
Startling eslsslstions Produced at
Meeting Of the Rritlsh Assoc alton.

At recent meeting of tho British
Association Il. G. Rayenstein produced
an elaborate set OF statistics to shaw
that the world will, in the ordinary
course Of things. be fully inhabited in
about 1872 years. which estimate con-
siderahly extends the period at which
some learned men believe humanity
will be crowded out.
Having previously swept away the
arctic and antarctic regions as not be-
ing essential for his argument, he
parceled out the remainder of the earth
iuto: Cutiysble land. Is, 400, 600
square miles; steppe. scrub. poor grass,
etc. ID 90l 900 square miles; barren
deserts. $50. 600 square miles; total
of 46 $50 600 square miles. The popu-
lation living upon this he reckons at a
little over | 467. 600 600 divided thus:
Europe $50 200 600; Asia. $50 900 600;
Africa l27 900 600 G. much lower
estimate than most people compute);
Australia 4 $50 900; North America,
80 250, 600; South America $500 600.
Mr. RavenStein showed how. suppos-
ing the standard of life among the
various peoples to remain the same,
supposiug the population increases at
the rate of per cent in every decade,
and supposing there are no extraor-
binary improvements in agriculture.
the population Of the world in the wear
2O72 viii be 1894 900 900. In speak
ing of tho populations that these areas
would bear mentioning POI indiyidu-
ais TO the square mile AS a fair aver
age), he suggested that the productive
ness of the earth might be better util-
lied when people understood economy.
Iu expressing a general opinion that
tropical countries are not mt for
Europeans he granted exceptions to
the rule as, for example in certain now
wel-known highlands Of Africa. One
of the theories propounded is that
there is a gradual nigga ion Of people
southwark, so that in m race OF
European origin may a is who viii be
acclimatized in the tropics. On the
whole, Mr.. Rayenslein does not de-
SPAR that the world will be overpop-
ulated. because as new developments
occur new adaptations will be found to
meet them.
Rev. john Mackenzie expressed the
opinion that the Zambesi will all in
course of time be suitable for European
residents. j. w. Wells. who has
travelled 5000 miles in Argentina aud
Brazil. thought that there is every
prospect of speedy construction Of a
vast system of rail and fuvial COM
muncation all over the country. The
sum total of the discussion SO far was
an assurance that there are plenty
of places in the world fit for popu a.
ton. that there is demand for popu-
lation all over the world. aud that we
need not particularly worry ourselves
as to whether the globe will be over
populated in generations to come.

Election Returns.
NATIONAL TRIUMPH IN OHIO
FOR REPUBLICANS.
New York and Iowa Favorable to
Democrats, with only Local
Issues at Stake.
Results in other States Encour-
aging to Republicans.
GLORY EMO Ugh.

Wisconsin had no election this
year, but great interest in the results
in other states prevailed here.
Republicans have good reason TO
feel elated. In Ohio only national
issues were brought to bear on the
voters and the result was grand, Nc
Kinley sweeping the state by $4,000
plurality on the protection policy
combined with reciprocity and
sound money, and the legislature is
largely Republican.
In New York Flowers barrel
placed in the hands Tammany won
by about $4,000 The lines drawn
were decidedly local in nature, the
Republicans taking stand against
Iammany, and the Democrats max
ing great ado about the world
fair. The legislature is very close.
In Iowa Boies aud his bottle won
the race with from 5000 to 1000
votes to =. re. The alliance can.
didate has about 5000 to his credit.
Legislature Republican. The issue
was mainly on the prohibition line.
The Democratic candidate for
Governor in Massachusetts came
out 5000 ahead, by standing on q
platform square against the free and
unlimited coinage of silver, as
sustained by that party in other
states. Republicans hold the legis-
Iature by decided gains.
Pennsylvania has gone Repub.l.
can by at least 5000.
In Kansas the people are evidently
tired of the calamity howl. Al
though only county election the
Republicans achieved signal and
unexpected victories, which means
nothing but a singing rebuke to
PETER Simpson and other alliance
leaders.
Nebraska, Colorado and 5. Dakou.
also present handsome results of d
Republican stamp.
In all there is very little cause for
Republicans to feel chagrined. The
loss of New York and Iowa Is to
be regretted, but had issues of ma
tional import been brought to the
front in those states rs in Ohio the
result would surely have been diff
fereut
The Republican party is right in
line now with "Judicious Protection,
combined with Reciprocity aud
Sound Money" stamped on its
banners.

NJ. j. Minor,

In all civilized lands the use and
sale Of ale are general, and it is rec
ognized as moderate, temperate bev
erage with a world of refreshing and
cOmmendhble qualities. The English
people back home in "Merrie England"
especially praise it and in many fami-
lies its use is general. That they are
a stalWart sturdy race is to a great
extent tribute to its worth. But ale
to be healthy must be pure, and therein
lies the rub. Many brewers in the
competition of business turn out in
ferior or adulterated goods and seek to
place it on the market as being equal
to the best. The career Of such estab-
lishments however is apt to be short
lived. The educated potato, from
whence comes the bulk Of the trade,
is quick to distinguish the pure article
from the adulterated and he demands
the best. If he Hyes within 25 miles
of Mineral Point he is very apt to de-
mand the beer of NJ. j. Minor of the
Mineral Point Ale Brewery whose rep
utation for excellence and purity of
manufacture is unsurpassed.
This business was first established
away back in 1855 by James Argall
and was conducted successfully by him
until it was purchased in November
1887 by the present proprietor Mr. M.

W z PnrkiSOn.

The subject of this sketch Mr.. VIM.
B. Parkison, was born in Madison
county, Ills, in 1920, and moved to this
county in 1885, being among the early
settlers here, and has always been en-
gagged in agricultural pursuits and by
good business management has &C
CURED a farm of 270 acres which lies
four miles southeast of the city. Mr..
Parkinson has resided continuously in
the county with the exception of trip
which he made across the plains to
Oregon in 1915, which was one of
the first expeditions of the kind ever
made to that what was then an unde-
veloped country he was absent about
a year, and then again in 1850 made
the trip to California as many did at
that early day, but like his former
trip it was of short duration, and
since that time he has been identified
with Iowa county, and was elected a
member of the board of supervisors
and served for a period of eight years.
He has always been democrat in
politics and voted his convictions.
The farm owned by Mr.. Parkison
consists of 270 acres of as beautiful
farm land as will be found in many a
days travel. 230 of this is under
cultivation the remaining forty acres

and comprises great variety OF soil,
rich and productive Both soil and
climate are favorable to the production
of such grains and grasses, vegetables
and fruits as are adapted to this lati
tude; wheat, oats, and Indian corn are
the leading staples. Potatoes and
other root crops yield abundantly. BY
various engagements, additions and
embellishments the old Parkison farm
house has developed into a hand
some and well appointed ediice. The
buildings which are pleasantly stu
ated on a slight eminence, stand in a
large yard and are surrounded by num-
erous shade and fruit trees. The
house is two stories high and contains
nine large and commodious rooms. The
farm is supplied with large and
commodious barn, capable of shelter
ing large number of horses etc.
The other buildings consist of car
riage house, hay sheds, chicken house,
machine shop, and double corn crib
with a capacity of 1000 bushels of
corn. The farm is watered by never
failing stream of water, pure as a crys-
tal--beside this there is both well and
cistern at the house and barn with
good wind mill and is one of the
most desirable places to reside in Iowa
county. But by i'll health and besides
having reached that age when after
an active business life which has been
filed with hard struggles, Mr.. Parki-
son has determined to retire and
sell his house which for so many
years has been his home and move
into the city, and therefore places his
property on the market for sale. 1t is
surely one of the best improved farms
in Iowa county, and is offered at a
bargain.
