She was third in colleges, teachers and schools ; also in cattle, lead, hay, flax, sorghum and beeswax.
She was fourth in population, in children enrolled in public schools, in law schools, in butter, potatoes and carriages.
She was fifth in value of real and personal property, in theological seminaries, and colleges exclusively for women, in milk sold, and in boots and shoes manufactured, and in book-binding.
She was only seventh in the production of wood, while she was the twelfth in area. Surely that was well done for the Prairie State. She then had, in 1876, much more wood and growing timber than she had thirty years before.
A few leading industries will justify emphasis. She manufactured 8205,000,000 worth of goods, which placed her well up toward New York and Pennsylvania. The number of her manufacturing establishments increased from 1860 to 1870, 200 per cent. : capital employed increased 350 per cent. ; and the amount of product increased 400 per cent. She issued 5.500,000 copies of commercial and financial newspapers, being only second to New York. She had 6,759 miles of railroad, then leading all other States, worth 8636,458,000, using 3,245 engines, and 67,712 ears, making a train long enough to cover one-tenth of the entire roads of the State. Her stations were only five miles apart. She carried in, 1876, 15,795,000 passengers an average of 36} miles, or equal to taking her entire population twice across the State. More than two-thirds of her land was within five miles of a railroad, and less than two per cent. was more than fifteen miles away.
The State has a large financial interest in the Illinois Central Railroad. The road was incorporated in 1850, and the State gave each alternate section for six miles on each side, and doubled the price of the remaining land, so keeping herself good. The road received 2,595,000 acres of land, and paid to the State one-seventh of the gross receipts. The State received in 1877, $350,000, and had received up to that year in all about 87,- 000,000. It was practically the people's road, and it had a most able and gentlemanly management. Add to the above amount the annual receipts from the canal, 8111,000, and a large per cent. of the State tax was provided for.
