HE ADMIRES AMERICA,

Sir Thomas Henry Grafton Esmonde,
who recently made a lecture tour of this
country in behalf of the Land League,
upon his return to Dublin delivered a lee
ture on the subject Of America and
Americans" Among other things he
said: Zone of the secrets of American
success is the superior education Of Amer
leans. 1t is also one of the secrets of
Amerlca's general well being. One of
the fruits OF the high standard of intelli-
gence resulting from it is that Americas
criminals number barely more han one
tenth of l per cent, and her paupers
something lessIhan one-ffth OF | per cent
OF her entire population. The United
States are undoubtedly the richest, the
most progressive aggregation of humanity
in existence. Unquestionably the most
wholesomely rich and the most healthily
progressive. England is at present their
nearest competitor; but they leave her
far behind. England is rich, no doubt.
But how has she grown rich? By the
plumber of seven centuries; by the robbery
of weaker nations; by the crushing out of
weaker rivals; by the destruction of
weaker peoples; by the imposition of her
tribute upon the industry of all unable to
resist her grasping avarlce.
America has grown rich by honorable
means. She has robbed no one; she has
injured no one; she has not sent her fleets
and armies to ravage and TO destroy the
hearts and workshops OF her rivals in the
peaceful walks of trade; she has not stran-
gled budding industries at one side of the
globe TO protect her manufacturers against
honest competition, nor has she made a
way with fire and sword en- the other for
the introduction OF her poisonous wares
TO the decentralization and debasement of
an entire branch of the human race.
None OF these crimes can be laid at Amer,
cas- door. What she has won she has
won honestly and fairly. Mankind owe
her gratitude, not hatred. Americas
triumDhs are those of peace. Her sym
bols of victory are the spade and the
ploughshare.
She has delved the virgin soil of her
vast p%rairies; she has released the hidden
treasures OF her countless mines; she has
utilized the flow of her noble rivers; she
has laid her ~boundless forests under cor
tribution; she has iostered and promoted
by wise legislation every one of the myr-
q.
topography and climate. She has girded
a continent with IRON roads. | have trav-
eled the length and breadth of America. |
have seen every phase OF her civilization,
| have marveled at her limitless resources
and her ~boundless wealth; at her extraor.

JNO. r. CARROLL. Editor,
WYOMING'S VOTE

The full official figures from all over the
territory for the last election have not yet
come to hand, but with the official figures
from all counties along the line of the
railroad and close approximations from
the others it is evident that the figures
will reach about II, 925 votes. Two years
ago Judge Carey had no opposition, but
the vote based on the county offices is
given officially at IA, 1872. In 1884 in the
Holiday and Carey campaign 1881 votes
we're cast, while in 1882 when Post ran
against Medium the total vote of the
territory was l0,5l5.
In estimating the population in this
territory, where female suffrage prevails,
it is usual to multiply the vote by three
TO secure an approximate estimation on
the population. Following this rule
Wyoming would be given a population of
So, 775, which we believe to be rather
low, as a full vote was not got out owing
to stormy weather.
The Troy IN. " Times in commenting
on the election calls attention to the fact
that the city of Troy cast precisely the
same vote in the last election as the state
of Nevada, viz, 1900. 1t therefore cal
culates that the vote of an American citi-
zen cast in the town of Troy is twenty
times less potent than the vote of an
American citizen cast in the state of
Nevada, the 10, 900 voters in the latter
locality e%lecting a congressman and the
legislature which elects two United States
senators. New York State, following out
the same line, has forty-two electoral votes
and cast LII, 312 votes. Therefore it
has one electoral vote to every 1000
popular votes. In the same ratio Wyo-
ming would have 5000 popular votes to
every electoral vote.

ARE THEY EVER CURED, :
Patients In an Insane Asylum-A Very
Serious Question.

Patients I'm an Insane Asylum-A Very
Serious Question.
The question recently raised by ex-
patients of an insane asylum, whether
sane people are ever kept there after cure
because cruel relatives will not take tho
legal measures necessary to get them out,
has caused a good deal of talk. Every
village has it's unfortunate, who is
pointed out as a whilom mailman or mad
woman. A terrible name it is to bear,
too, for never can come the day, this side
of the grave, when he who has once been
into the dark valley Is safe against a pos
sible return. He is always a subject of
suspicion and Knows it, and if to this
knowledge is added the belief that he was
locked up wrongfnlly his position is
doubly calling.
A reporter asked a young doctor who
mas served his time in the asylum wheth-
er sane people were ever kept there when
they ought to be at liberty.
That is q very delicate question:" he
said, and very lard to answer. The
dividing line between sanity and insanity
Is very narrow and very faint sometimes,
and it is a very delicate matter to say
when a person has crossed it. Some
times a patient will be jolly and appa-
rently sane for months and then sud
denly fall back into the depths-perhaps
into the dangerous stage-of lunacy. 1t
may be laid down as a safe rule that q
man who has been once insane may be-
come so again, especially if worried and
fretted, and facts like these must enter
into any discussion of the question you
have asked.
Now it frequently happens here, as at
all asylums, that a patient reaches the
state so close to a cure that it would be
hard to say that he was not all right. He
begins to fret over his confinement, and il
he could be taken out and not worried with
the cares which invariably accompany a
battle with the world, he would be far
better off, perhaps, than under the nag
ging influence of the bolts Il bars,
which he knows in an asylum stand be-
tween hin and liberty. To send such a
man out into the world and compel him to
fight for himself would be cruel. Nine
times out of ten he would be pack again
very soon, and much the worse for hav-
ing left the asylum. Now that is tho
class of cases which has undoubtedly
been brought to public attention, and
some of them are sad enough. l will say
this: that if the medical staff of an asy-
lum is satisfied that a patient Is thor
oughly cured-cured so well that he or
she can face the strain of n battle with
ife-no heartless relatives would be able
to keep that patient imprisoned"
But how about inebriate patients?"
asked the reporter.
We'll, they are a sort of exception to
the rule" said the doctor. Many n
man is kept in an asylum who is perfectly
sane, who, II he were allowed the liberty
of the outside world, would be sure to
drink to excess. The insanity of drink is
in him. Such a man, | think, is better
behind asylum walls. New York World.
