COMBINATIONS.

In the island of Luzon there are
nearly million acres of rolling pine
land. with no underbrush or tropical
vegetation, where the climate Is like
that of the upper Allegheny mountains
in June.
Throughout the West Indies and
peninsula OF Florida the prevailing
winds are-from due east. which makes
she eastern coasts very healthy, while
on the west coasts, where those trade
winds are not so constant. the eli
mate is less salubrlous
Egypt Argentina are busily de-
veloping their facilities for producing
corn and cotton. Egypt is building a
dam to increase her cotton area, hop
ing to sapply In time the English de-
mand. Argentina's specially is corn.
Neither country has the acreage, pop
ulation, energy. or capital to make 1t
great cotton and corn growing coun-
iry-the United States.
The effect OF great wealth is to pro-
luce a desire for luxurious display in
every climate. The fellow-tribesmen

had never been witnessed In those
regions before.

Liberia are the sweet potato. cassada.
yam and tanta The cassada is a root
yarying in size from three to eight
inches in length and from three to
eight inches In circumference. When
1t is cooked It tastes very much like
a fresh chestnut. This root is the
vegetable most extensively cultivated

ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN
CLANS ASSEMBLING

SPRINGFIELD. H.. Jan. 27.--Re-
publican politicians of Illinois, repre-
senting every county Of the state and
every faction Of the party, are round
ed up In the capital today for their
biennial love feast. The excuse for
the gathering Is the meeting Of the
state committee to fix the time and
place for holding the state conven-
tion. The gathering affords an ex-
cellent opportunity for drawing a
line" on the situation with regard to
the gubernatorial nomination and II
is this fact that Is chiefly responsible
for the presence OF so many OF the
party leaders.
By 10 O'Clock this morning the Le-
land hotel corridor and other public
places were alive with politicians who
made states and discussed the various
gubernatorial candidates and their al
liances. Quietly but persistently cir
culating among the throngs OF visi-
tors and buttonholing each new ar
rival were the active lieutenants OF
the three leading asplrants for the
gubernatorial nomination-Govern
Yates. who aspires to head the ticket
again; Colonel Frank o. Lowden of
Chicago. who believes he has more
than an even chance of becoming the
standard bearer. and Congressman
Vespasian Warner, who has followed
the lead OF his two rivals In making a
personal Canvass OF the state.
The powwow will probably be rich
in interesting developments. but Just
what effect It will have on the several
booms can hardly be figured out at
present More will be known after
the speech.making tonight. Senators
Cullom and Hopkins have been invlt-
ed to speak and also the various ILL.,
nois representatives In the house.
Their speeches will be merely pre-
lIminary to the opening Of the "blg
show" which will consist Of speeches
by the candidates for the gubernator-
ial nomination. beginning with Gov.
Yates and ending with Attorney Gen
eral Hamlin. Besides these, II time
