Comparative Death Rate OF the Rich
and the Poor.

|. John II. Winston, of North Carolina,
writes us:
"l.et humanity look at these figures.
If there is no humanity, then let selfish
ness look at them:
"Among the weather. classes eighty
children in 1000 die; among the poor
900 in 1000 die.
Nearly four chances to one in favor
of the rich against the poor.
again, the average age of the rich
is 80 years; of the poor it is 30 years.
"Now, ii the proceeds of industrial
pursuits were properly distributed, the
longevity of all classes Of people would
be increased.
"Then, Americans, vote for the two
old parties if You will! You thus have
the honor(? p of helping few men to
be millionaires. As the new-made
millionaire mounts the steps to his pal
ace, then, ask you to look back ut
the troop of men, women and children
your vote has helped to send to asy-
lums, poor-houses and the tomb. -

What is the Cause 2

There is something wrong some.
where The telegraphic columns
of The Daily Democrat, as
well as those of all great news
papers, are almost daily filled with the
details of revaulting murders, killings,
accounts of domestic infelicities, bank
stealing and the shortcomings of hu-
mankind generally.
For instance our telegraphic col
umns this morning give an account of
murder and suicide at Chicago of
an attempted bank robbery at Des
Moines; of clerical book thief at Bos-
ton; of another Rose Amber case; of
christening tragedy at Philadelphia and
one at Goconia, N. III. All this gives
one an idea that honest men are un-
common, virtuous men are dying out
and that race of brutes is growing up.
But this is not so. There are Just as
many honest men, as many happy
homes, as many virtuous men, and
more, than there ever were. But of
those we scarcely hear. The people
who represent the worlds happiness
are quiet unassuming people, who new
er get into public print and who never
create sensation. How many such
can we not count in our own little
city.
The Democrat has often though,
that if, once in a while, the dailies oI
our larger cities could send their emmi
saries to the quiet, and happy homes
of some healthy minded man and sub
stitute for the details of crime a de
scription of his life and habits, thai
some would appreciate the change
There is an undoubted demand, we ad
nit, for sensational literature. Their,
is a class Of readers who want to know
all about the murders and crimes tha
occur This taste, is we fear, too mucl
hattered aud nurtured. 1t is an un
healthy taste. 1t belongs to unhealth,
minds.
| We trust that the time is comin
when public sentiment will demanC
something better. We should be tol,
more of the happy side of life and no
so much of its wickedness. For tn
good of humanity The Den.oc carr
nestly hopes that our large and inhu
ential dailles will soon be forced TO d
this. .-LOcE HaUen Democrat

"Carry him." repeated Lefty.
Solomon stepped aside. She saw
behind him litter roughly made of
hay rakes and covered over with coats
and on that litter George was lying
pale and bleeding, with his eyes closed.
"Oh, Mr.. Wyse, is he dead ?" she
asked, turning even paler than George.
"Not bit of it Worth twelve
dozen dead men yet. Only bit of a
break in one arm aud one leg, and a
knock on the head when he fell The
horse didu't kick, and he'll be all right
as soon as the doctor secs him. Shall
we take him up stairs or where?"
"Bring him in here" said Lefty re-
covering herself.
She led the way to the bedroom on
the ground floor and helped to shift
the MANNED figure from the litter to
the bed. Her soul was dying within
her for fear, yet not word passed her
lips.
When the doctor came in he found a
capable nurse, dressed in a dark print
who listened intelligently to his direc-
tions and promised to carry them out
fully.
Aud it so happened that as George
Baewster returned TO life the first
words that fell upon his ears were ut
tered by the doctor outside the window
as he mounted his gig:
"Yes, he will do, Mr.. Wyse, he will
pull through nice if his wife nurses
him. And she can do 80 nicely, if
some of you will send some one to take
charge of the house. She is woman

to value her."
Lefty bending over the bed absorbed
in the invalid, had not heard him.

LIBERTY" AND RAILROADS.

COMMENTING on certain efforts Of
eastern railroad managers 20 arrange
matters TO suit themselves, the New
York Tribune says:
Messrs. Huntington, Porter and
number OF other railroad kings who
were announced as promoters OF the
Railway Shareholders association,
which has Just been organized for the
dissemination of news TO stockholders
and for the protection of their inter
ests, have hastened TO deny, in the
most vigorous manner, that they had
anything TO do with the project. The
denial was hardly necessary. These
gentlemen have made their immense
fortunes under system which de
nies information to stockholders and
allows them the protection which the
under dog usually gets from the
upper. The proposed association, II
carried out, would clip their wings of
some of their most precious feathers.
Who ever heard OF kings leading in
movements to cut down their preroga-
tives? American roads which make
pooling and all other kinds of agree
ments with each other rs to connec-
tions, methods of business and rates,
have a freedom entirely unknown TO
corporations in Great Britain.
The latest report OF the English
Railway Commission, which has Just
been printed in England, gives an
idea of the restrictions thrown about
the roads there in making their
working agreements with each other.
No such agreement, it appears, is
valid until il has been advertised in
accordance with certain forms. so
that both the stockholders and the
public may know just what the agree
ment amounts to and may make such
objections as they desire TO the com
missioners, who, strange TO say, listen
TO them. As though this was not
sufficiently socialistic, IL IS provided
by the law of England that these
arrangements shall be revised every
ten years, and, if necessary, shall be
modified to conform to the public
interest. America is popularly con
sidered 10 be freer country than
England, and so ii evidently is from
the point OF view OF the Eanderbilts
and Goulds and Huntingtons, who
run our railroads a. they choose, but,
after all, il liberty is not license TO
do Is you choose, hGi protection from
the license of others TO do as they
choose. it really seems possible that
there may be more liberty. in Eng
land for customers OF railroads and
minority stockholders Than IN this
country.

4 CHASTITY VOYAGE.

CAFTAIN BAKER, OF the i!m. H.
BeSSe, recently arrived In Boston, says
his bark was directly in the vicinity
of Anjiers at the time OF The terrible
disaster, which killed thousands. and
changed the face of the land around
Sunda Straits. he left Batavia Au-
gust 10th, and the following morning
at daylight those on deck noticed a
heavy bank of clouds rising from the
west and obscuring the sun. and at
the same time The barometer dropped
down to 29.40, and again suddenly
rose to 300. Ali hands were called
and sail taken of as fast as possible,
heavy showers of sand and ashes
commenced falling, completely cover
ing decks and spars to depth OF sew
eral inches. By noon ii had grown
darker than the darkest night and
commenced TO blow n hurricane, but,
strange to say, the sea remained per-
fectly smooth. Heavy rUmblings, like
distant thunder. were constantly
heard at intervals. The sky was
lighted up by lightning flashes, and a
strong smell of sulphur permeated
the atmosphere and made il difficult
10 breathe All hands were affected
10y this awful scene. and many OF The
sailors thought the world was coming
TO an end.
Throughout the gale the tide set
strongly TO the westward. and the
bark drove through the water at the
rate of fourteen knots an hour. AT
3 3P. NJ the sky commenced TO grow
brighter, but ashes continued to fall
like snow. On the following day the
bark entered the straits of Sunda
and the extent of the damage done
was plainly to be seen. Whole islands
had sunk, and those that remained
had changed in form. The north.
western part of Krakatia Island had
disappeared, and verbatim and Long
Island, heretofore covered with
trees, were completely bare. They
saw a very large number
of bodies, and the waite,
for miles was covered with trees anC
dead bodies. The sea for GOO mile
was field of lava. They experienced
hurricane from the north and north
east with a tremendous sea, which
lasted for three days. During thi
time the decks and cabin were food
ed with water, and a portion Of tht
bulwarks and everything moveablt
on the deck was washed away. TIL,
most fearful thing of all was the sc;
of cOrpses; ''for nearly three days W,
came across body after body OF per
sons who had lost their lives in tn,
earthquake" One man alone counted
sixty in plain sight. and thousand.
must have perished.
