Where Diphtheria Occurs.

The mortality statistics collected by the Cen
sus Bureau furnish some interesting points
with regard to the distribution of certain dis
eases. The number of deaths during the CEN
sus year reported due to diptheria is-males,
18,849; females, 9,549; total, SO, 1893; giving a
proportion of 5l.33 per thousand of all deaths
in which the causes are reported. The total
number of deaths from diphtheria under one
year of age was 2, 1896; under five years OF age
it was 20, O35; between five and fifteen years
of age, 6,162 In the North Atlantic States
the proportion of death from diphtheria to the
total number of deaths having recorded causes
was 81. 20 per thousand, being in the cities
46. II per thousand and in the small towns and
rural districts So. 80. In the Gulf coast states
the proportion of deaths from diphtheria was
but IL. is per thousand (13. IA in New Orleans
and 1927 elsewhere), and in the Lake regions
it was 81.15. Six cities, from Rochester to
Chicago, give an average of 70. Is and the re-
mainder of the region "a. 10 per thousand.
The statistics of enteric or Typhoid fever are
equally instructive. The total number of
deaths from typhoid fever reported are:
Males, IL, 1852; females, II ,053; total, %, 905;
being in the proportion of 31.21 per thousand
of all deaths having reported causes. In the
North Atlantic States the proportion of deaths
from this cause was 1926 per thousand in the
large cities and 10. 95 in the country. In New
Orleans it was 1857 and in the rest of the Gulf
States 3O.02. In the Lake region the deaths
from typhoid were 1915 per thousand in the
large cities and 27.31 in the remainder of this
region. 1t will be seen from these figures
that neither diphtheria nor enteric fever are
especially diseases of the large cities. They
appear to be more prevalent in the small
towns and rural districts which have no gen
eral water supply or systems of sewerage, but
obtain their water from springs and wells and
observe the usual custom of storing excreta in
cesspools or vaults.

The Maryland Republican notes the
fact that at late meeting of the colored
people held in Baltimore, it was gravely
mooted to nominate colored men for Gov
ernor, Comptroller, and Acknowledgement,
at the next election If the colored Re
pubIicans should take a stand of that sort,
their white allies wonld be in a worse con-
dition than flushed coyey of birds, and
in greater CONSERVATION. The paucity of
their numbers would then be painfully APP
parent, exciting only the commiseration of
their opponents. Many Of the colored
people begin to think that they have served
theirwhite Republican friends long enough,
and that it is now time to serve themselves.
