9T The cotton area proper lies south
of latitude Sc and east Of longitude 20,
embracing a territory of about 25O,OOO,-
900 acres One tenth of this was devo-
ted to the cultivation Of cotton In 1900.
That is, one acre in every 10 was under
cotton cultivation last year. This may
raise the question as to the limit In
the matter of acreage that can be CIV
en- to such an agricultural occupation
as the growing of cotton. This one
tenth, or 25,OOO,O0O acres Of the area
is capable Of producing, under present
methods, a crop of 100000 bales.
Should the cultivation be on the inten-
sive order, this area might be made to
produce perhaps 100000 bales. 1t
would seem that should yield Of TO-
OOO, 900 bales Of cotton in the Southern
states be reached, it would be the limit
of cotton cultivation in the United, and
there are a number Of factors to be
taken into consideration in order to
produce and gather a crop of this size.

EHGlAND'S KING EDWARD.
Their Name Fuller Of Historical Glory Than
Albert.

The preference Of the English people
for the name Edward VII over Albert
I Is easily understood, says the New
York Journal. Albert has never been
a royal name in England, and not often
on the continent. It has no great as
sociations anywhere. The name of Ed
ward Is bound up with the greatest
events Of English history.
Even before the conquest the laws Of
Edward the Confessor became the
standard by which men judged the
state Of their liberties for the next CEN
tury and a half. After the conquest
Edward I became a great English
sovereign. He may be called the father
Of the English Constitution, with its
distribution Of the powers Of govern
ment among Kings. Lords and Com
mons, and he was great administra-
tor and a great general as we'll.
Edward II was weak; but Edward
III was ruler Of good character and
ability, and the most splendid military
triumphs in English history-the VIC
tories Of Crecy and Poities-illumina-
ted his reign. The credit of them be-
longed, however, to another Edward
his famous son, the Black Prince.
Edward w was a dashing adven-
turer, whose meteoric fights on and OFF
the throne in his struggles with Henry
vi, Queen Margaret and Warwick give
dramatic interest to the Wars of the
Roses.
The sad fate Of the little Edward v,
murdered with his brother by his
wicked uncle, the ogre Richard III, in
the Tower has place in all children's
story books along with the touching
tale Of the Babies in the Wood"
Finally Edward vi, who died at 16,
showed such precocious promise that
his people could imagine anything pos.s
sible If he had lived.
It is hardly possible that Edward
VII can do as well as the greatest Of
his predecessors Of the name; but he
will certainly do better than the worst,
and he may esteem himself fortunate
If he measures up to the average.

REWRITING HISTORY,
Were Generals Thomas And Logan confeder.
ates At Hearth

Much history is to be learned down
here, says staff correspondent Of the
New York Press writing from Durham,
N. c.; history that Is not yet recorded
in biographies and encyclopedias. It
Is, indeed, safe to say that the history
Of the war has not yet been written.
General Johnson told me that he and
Geo. H. Thomas were chums in the
army. Thomas was Virginian Of the
Virginians, and when Jefferson Davis
gave Johnson his commission in the
army Of the Confederacy, Thomas
pleaded for similar appointment.
''Tell him." said Mr.. Davis to John
ston, that there Is no place for him
just now. Tell him he must wait. AS
soon as there Is place he shall have
it." Thomas's whole soul became en-
bittered, and when President Lincoln
offered him a billet in the Union army
he eagerly accepted 1t and became one
Of the most implacable enemies Of the
South. Johnston regarded him as one
of the greatest soldiers Of the age, and
his own career was saddened by the re-
lentless hatred manifested by Thomas
toward the South.
Gen. John A. Logan, like George H.
Thomas, was soldier Of fortune at the
beginning Of the war, willing to fight
on either side for the mere fun Of the
thing. At the first sound Of the battle
roll he hastened to Kentucky to organ
lie a regiment to fight for the Confed-
eracy, and had raised two or three
companies when President Lincoln Of
fered him a commission in the United
States army. In accepting this he
lined up on the Union side, and as
BLACK Jack" became as strong hater
Of the South as Gen. Thomas. This Is
a matter Of history, though not Of rec
ord.
