EGYPT is LOOKING UP.

An analysis OF the census returns on
Illinois for the purpose of comparing
the southern and northern sections Of
illinois is interesting. Leaving ehs
Cook county, and dividing on a line
with the south line OF Sangamon coun.
ty there are fifty-nine nothern ana
forty-two southern counties. OF the
fifty.nlne northern counties thlrty-one
have lost poplation, while twenty
eight have gained. OF the forty-twc
southern counties twenty-five have
gained and twenty have lost. The
nor ahern counties show majority OIL

the southern counties show majority
On the right side. -
OF the northern fifty-nine counties
the total gains in population fot IN
1896, while the total losses reaca
34Gi9, leaving a net gain for the fifty
Pine counties of 1858. This includes
the large counties OF Lake, Peoria
sangamon. will, Kane, Rock Island
Winnebago, vermilion, all Of whlcs
made heavy gains.
In the forty-two southern counties
the gains reach 13S,147, only 30,l5s
less than those of the entire fifty-nine
northern counties. The losses reach
22.9S5, leaving net gain of 1852
only 1881 less than the net gain Of
the northern counties.
II the state should be divided int
three sections, north, central and
south, taking approximately an equa'
area in each section, the difference
In favor of Southern Illinois would
be much greater. Practically all the
gain that is credited to the southern
portion OF the state has been made
In the lower end, and If the counties
OF the northern portion of South Hi
n0is were separated from the south
ern counties, 1t would be found that
they show a loss which ID made W IL
that portion OF the state known az
Egypt. Taking up some of the Egyp
tan counties that have made the
largest gains will demonstrate this
conclusiyely. These are: Alexander

500. Total, 123,05S, or 1896 more than
the net gain Of the south part OF the
state.

New York National City Company,

of the decision of President Taft
Through the National City Company,
the National City Bank controls over 100
banks and thus, according to Attorney
General Wickcrsham, violates the mo-
tional banking laws, under which o ma
tional bank is prohibited from maintain
ing branches or holding the stocks Of
another bank, Secretary Macveagh has
insisted that the National CITY Company
does not contravenc these laws. Presi-
dent Taft Is acting as umpire III the dis.

is putting itself in q position to be

SAYS COTTON PLAN

ELEMENTS, NOT MEN, CONTROL
COTTON PRODUCTION.
Cotton King Thinks Plan of Southern
Growers TO Pool Crop VIII Be
a Failure.

Washington Daniel j. Sully, for
merly known az the Cotton King in
an interview here declared that the plan
of eighteen governors to encourage a
cotton pool in the South is not feasible.
Human beings cannot control nature"
Said Mr.. Sully, "and nature controls the
cotton production. 1t makes no differ
ence what the acreage OF cotton may be,
the production depends upon the ele-
ments. | venture TO say that the cotton
acreage OF this country has not increased
rs per cent in the last quarter Of a
century, and the production has been, on
occasion, greater when the acreage was
smallest. | remember when cotton sold
~ low as 4 cents n pound. That was
in 1898, and at that time the acreage
was greater than it was in subsequent
years, when the price of cotton reached
as high as 90 cents a pound.
Improved methods Of cultivation have
resulted in II greatly increased production
of lint TO the acre in the state OF Georgia
and North and South Carolina, where it
has reached as high as $50 pounds, while
in Texas, the greatest cotton producing
state in the country, the average of 100
pounds to an acre has stood for many
years. 1t is possible, I say, but not at
all practical, to pool the cotton product
of this country. No one can doubt the
sincerity of the governors in the Eouth,
and their efforts are laudable, but at
the same time | do not think they coule
In any way prove successful"

loss Of rest. This condition grew con-
stantly worse, until his friends per.
suaded him, some four months ago, to
quit tea and use Postum.
AT first he used Postum only for
breakfast, but az he liked the taste OF
1t, and 1t somehow seemed to do him
good, he added It to his evening meal.
Then, as he grew better. he began to
drink 1t for his noon meal. and now
he win drink nothing else at table.
His condition is 30 wonderfully i'm.
