statistics to show that where in given
number of risks ton temperate persons
die between the ages of 10 and 20,
eighteen Incorporate persons die; be-
tween tho ages 20 and 80, Ten temper
ate and fifty-onc Incorporate, and
between the ages of 80 and 40, ten tenn
perate and forty Incorporate persons
die in o given number of risks. Life
insurance tables show that temperate
PERSONS chance of living is, at 20, 44.2
years; at 80, 36.5 years; at 40, 2S.S
years. An Incorporate PERSONS chance
of living is, at 20, 1916 years; at 80,
1873 years; at 40, 11.6 years, and the
average life OF non-uscrs is Ga years.
From this shortening of life by drink
ing, there is an annual loss to the coun-
try, through loss of labor alone, of
1858, 100000. The connection between
insanity and intemperancc is demon
strated, and DIR. Hitchcock, president
of the Michigan State Board of Health,
is quoted as authority for tho statement
that of the number of idiots in this
country, 800 are made such by the
use of alcohol, and 1900 persons are
annually made insane from the same
cause.
"Undcr the third head, statistics are
produced to show that the relation be-
tween intemperance and pauperism is
that OF cause and effect, and in a sum-
ming up of unusual power, the writer
maintains that the prevention of the
sale of intoxicating liquors is the re-
moval of the chief cause of crime, the
promotion of the public health, and the
diminution of pauperism."

Washington Clerkships.

To the great horde of employees Wash
ington means ruin. The local polite
ian who gets himself or his son a place
in one of the departments imagincs
himself successful. lie makes u dread
full mistake. He is less successful than
the man who fails and goes back to hon
est toll in his field or shop or store; he
is only more successful than the man
who fails and who still hangs about
Washington, waiting for the vacancy
that never comes, and going to the bad
in his disappointment. The great
crowds of young men who find clerk
ships in Washington are doomed. They
seeking that is characteristic of the fed
eral capital, where all classes of society
come closer together and lap over each
other more than in any city of the coun-
try. The government clerk who has
no resources in himself has plenty Of
time of time for dissipation. lie lives
in a cheap boarding house, which often
is disreputable as we'll as cheap, and he
| finds that viciousness is characteristic
of his surroundings. His work does
not interest him, it could interest no
one, and he yields to the temptations
that beset him. lie has none of the
checks that hold him in at home; none
of the reasons that under ordinary cir
cumstances would bring into play his
self respect. In Office hours, he is an
idler; out of Office hours, he is fast. 1t
is common sight in Washington, that
of battered and seedy drunkards, who
went there years ago and became gov
eminent clerks, and it is n young man
of very strong character who will not
become dssipatcd, and such a yonug
man will not long remain in the civil
service. These are types Of men who
succeed in finding employment by the
government, and whose lives are wreck
ed thereby. They constitute the large
majority of those who make their way
at o'clock in the morning through the
streets and avenues of the capital TO the
departments. They are unsuccessful
men, unhappy, unfortunate men, trcmb-
ling for fear of losing their poor places
or rusting out into useless beings,
ground TO powder by the huge machine
of which they are inconsiderablc parts.

that the Indians IN large numbers
would be persuaded to sever their
tribal relations and engage at once
in agriculture. 1t is now for their
best interests to conform their man
ner of life to the new order of things.
BY no greater induccmcnt than the
assurance of permanent title to the
