lied opposition to Attorney General Reed.

The Kennebec Journal has a timely article
on the Importance of some reliable annual
collections of statistics in regard to the indus
trial interests of the State. As the Journal
very truly remarks:
we have no method Of knowing with any
accurcy what the industry of the State pro-
duces, what is Its gain or loss in the means of
labor and living, whether we are advancing
or retrograding in the ways of industry and
wealth." ""N
Nor Is 1t less important to have statistics
In regard to our educational and religious in
situations, the movements of population, the
working of our laws in regard to domestic 70.
lations, taxation, criminals and the like. In
short we need statistics in relation to every
department of our social life. In every re-
spect in which experience can be OF service tc
US We need a correct record of that expert
ence. Social science must, it is true, in the
main, depend upon the deductive method,
but all social theories deduced priori need
the test OF specific experience for their vsrif-
cation.
We have had occasion to speak of this sub
ject before, and We take this occasion to call
attention to it again. The State ought to
have statisticlan to collect and collate in
formation in regard to all matters of public
concern. We ought to know where we are
and whittier we are drifting. We ought to
have the means of comparing oar own ex-
perience with that of other States, of four own
times with that of other times. We cannot
shape our policy wisely except in the light of
history. The result would without doubt
richly repay tie expense. In some of the
other States this work Of gathering statis-
tics is very carefully attended to, and with ex-
cellent results. We have never known a case
In which State has abandoned such a sys-
tenn after having once tried it.
In our own State we have a specimen of
the result of such effort in the exhaustive
and valuable book of Mr. Walter Wells on
the "Water Power of Maine" 1t has al
ready done much to attract the attention of
capitalists to the splendid natural advantages
possessed by this State for manufacturing
purposes of which our own people have
hitherto been but half conscious. This book
has afforded signal illustration of the
truth that knowledge is power" and ought
to teach us the value of systematic INQUIRY
into our condition and resources. We might
probably turn more energy in the same d.
rection. Our legislators ought to feel that
here is field that will yield far nober har.
vests than can be gained in petty squabbles
over the spells Of office or unimportant meas
ures. The signs of the times indicate that
In the future social questions are destined to
command growing attention and to assume
au Increasing Importance. Those who as
plre to leadership must act accordingly. and
