The startling assertion is made by
Mr.. +. w. Wines, of Illinois, who
was special agent of the tenth cen
sus for the collection of criminal sta
tistics, that crime has increased in
the United States, relatively to the
population, since the war, by not less
than one third, the greatest increase
being since 1870. In 1850, the ratio
of prisoners to the population was
300 to the million, in 1870, it was
1913 to the million, aud in 1880, 1169
to the million. The increase was
much greater among the native than
among the foreign population, nj.
though the ratio of foreign born pris.
oners to the native population. Cities
are shown by the figures to attract
criminals and breed crime-the ratio
of prisoners to population being II
times as great in the cities as in the
country. More than one third the
prisoners are under % years of age
when committed, and over one-half
are under % years. Male criminals
outnumber female criminals nearly
twelve to one.

ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS.

Voting on the Amen dments at the
coming election is very unsatisfactory
as far as the tickets are concerned.
Each of the Amendments is men,
toned by Section and Chapter, but
who can tell what is to be amended
and how, except by consulting the
Acts. The Amendments are publish
ed in the newspapers, but people have
not the time to commit them to MEM
Dry. The words " For Ratification !"
and For Rejection" are printed
with each amendment, and the aver
age voter cannot tell without consid-
cradle study which to leave stand and
which to erase to make it count the
way he wants TO vote. Many will
vote the ticket as it is printed, and
then it will not count at all either
way. If you want to vote for an
amendment, leave the words " For
Ratification stand; and if you want
to vote against an Amendment leave
the words For Rejection stand.
We publish the full blank ticket, so
voters can see and determine for them
selves in time.

on the stable until near the ground,
when it passed through stone wall

passed through heap of straw, but

ROME, October 21.-A despatch
from Potenza says that ten cars Of a
train crowded with excursionists re-
turning from the Naples fetes were
crushed in a remote portion of that
district by landslide, consisting Of
about fifty metres Of rock. The tel
egraph line being broken By the fall
of rocks, help was delayed two
hours. The scene that followed the
disaster was horrible. Seventy in.
jured passengers and ninety corpses
have been taken from the wreck.
There are still two cars buried be-
meath the rock, and it is certain that
the list of the dead will be increased.
The work of excavation continues.

The fierce struggle for mems votes
now going on will not raise the
standard of manhood. The bitter
fight waged against character and
reputation is for the individual glory
of few. 1t is getting to be so that
the best men are driven out OF pub
lie life by the meanness and lowness
of politics. 1t costs more than the
office Is worth to be elected.-more
money, more sacrifice, more worry
and fury than there is reward or
satisfaction.

All opposition is concentrated
against Mr.. Jos. G.. Kitchen, Republi-
can candidate for the Legislature, even
to trading off Cleveland votes. The
whole fight now is for members of
the Legislature. The next Legisla-
ture will elect U. S. Senator. Mr..
Kenna and Gov. Wilson, and some
say Hon. j. N. Camden, being the
aspirants. There is sure to an exciting
contest like the last, which will in
terfere with more necessary legisla-
ton in the interest the people. BY
electing Messrs. Kitchen and Buxton
this struggle for the U. s. Senate will
be best settled and the time and at
tention given to work for the State
and taxpayers. They are both good,
representative men. Mr.. Kitchen has
lived all his life among the people of
Berkeley and there is nothing against
his character, reputation and ability.
Mr.. Buxton has worked and dealt all
over the county, and has always got
ten along well with everybody.
These are men whom the citizens of
Berkeley can support with the assur-
ance that they will discharge their
duties honestly and faithfully. Vote
for them and work for them.

KATE.

There's something in the name of Kate
Which many will condemn
But listen now, while | relate
The traits of some of them.
There's Deli-Kate, modest dame,
And worthy of your love;
She nice and beautiful in frame,
As gentle as a dove.
Communi- Kate's intelligent.
As we may well suppose
Her faithful mind is ever bent
On telling what she knows.
There's Intri- Kake. she s so obscure
IT'S hard to find her out
For she is often very sure
To put your wits to rout.
Prevari-K Hates stubborn maid.
She's sure to have her way;
The cavilling, contrary jade
Objects to all you say.
There's Alter-Kate, perfect pest,
Much given to dispute
Her prattering tongue can never rest,
You cannot her refute.
There's Dislo-Kate, is quite fret,
Who fails to gain her point;
Her case is quite unfortunate,
And sorely out of joint.
EquivoKate no one will WOO;
The thing would be absurd,
She is SO faithless and untrue,
You cannot take her word.
There's Vindi-Kate, she S good and true,
And strives with all her might
Her duty faithfully to do,
And battle for the right.
There's Rusti-Kate, country lass;
Quite fond of rural scenes;
She likes to trample through the grass,
And loves the evergreens.
OF all the maidens you can find,
There's none like Edu-Kate;
Because she elevates the mind
Aud aims to something great.

WHEN THE LADIES VOTE.

What will the country be,
When the ladies vote :?
Still the land of liberty,
When the ladies vote?
Will they govern every town,
Will they crush the poor man down,
Sage. philosopher and clown,
When the ladies vote?
Will they stand up in the cars,
When the ladies vote
Will they close up all the bars,
When the ladies vote?
Will they wait and watch at night
For husband when he's tight ?
Not by something sight,
When the ladies vote.
Will conductors pull their bells,
When the ladies vote.
While the fair exchange farewells,
When the ladies vote,
Will they start their cars and go
AS they do just now, you know?
No, they will not dare do so,
When the ladies vote.
OH the men won t be so mean
When the ladies vote.
And go out the acts between,
When the ladies vote
Nor the funny writers say
What they We said for many day
OF the high hats at the play.
When the ladies vote,
Oh we'll all see better days,
When the ladies vote;
We will walk in wisdom's ways
When the ladies vote:
All kinds of trade will hum,
And the happy time will come
The grand millinum,
When the ladies vote

BADLY BURNED.--Last Friday,
while visiting at the home of Geo. III

te)le, of this city, met with a shocking

In saying that to-day the RepuD-
licans have the Presidential bat
tie won. At the present hour
Cleveland is plainly beaten. If
the election were tomorrow
General Harrison would carry
every Northern State but New
Jersey, and probably even that.
The Republican confidence which
fills the air is unquestionably
justified by the present situation.
Whether they will hold their vic
tory which is now within their
grasp depends upon whether they
will maintain their vigilance and
keep up their work with unhag-
ging vigor and organization to
the end.
This assurance Of success is the
chief Republican danger. 1t
may breed remissness. Conf
dence is we'll, but over-confidence
is often fatal. We are morally
certain that the triumph is won
to-day ; and we believe it will
stay won in November. But
this faith rests on the assump-
ton that there will be no neglect
Of the imperative requirements
that remain. A large part of
the practical organizing work of
the campaign is still to be done.
Thus far we have been making
votes and winning States by the
logic of the issue. 1t now re-
mains to muster them in their
full strength at the polls. The
registration must be scrutinized;
fraud must be prevented; every
Republican vote must be
brought out. This is the work
of thoroughly organized machin-
cry, and without it the argu-
ment and the appeal are futile.
With it victory is secure.
We believe the Republican
advantage is so signal that the
shrewdest Democratic managers
are themselves conscious that to-
: day their cause is lost. Their out
cry about threatened Republi-
can frauds in New York betrays
their weakness. The Democrats
have forty to fifty thousand ma
jority there. How absurd for
such a preponderating army to
whine about fraud on the part of
the minority! Majorities can
protect themselves. They have
the government; they have the
machinery; they have the Off
GERS, the police. the judges and
, all the power. The majority in
New York, big enough at the
best, has VIGOROUSLY been swol-
len over and over again by
fraudulent voting and false count
ing. And when the Democratic
managers, with forty or fifty
thousand lead in the city, raise
an cutlery about misdeeds on the
side Of the minority, it is con-
fession that the State will over
whelm them and a cover for
proposed infamies on their own
part.
For though the Democratic
managers know they are beaten
to-day, they are far from giving
up. They will make a desperate
effort to retrieve the battle. If
anybody imagines they are go
ing to surrender power without
a tremendous struggle he alto
gether mistakes their spirit. The
next two weeks will witness the
most herculean efforts to recover
the ground they have lost. They
will hope for accidents; they will
hope for Republican mistakes /;
but beyond this they will not
be scrupulous about the methods
they employ. They will try to
spring some startling move; if
they can repeat the Morey forg-
cry or anything like it they will
not hesitate; if necessary to
bring in the President for some
coup d etat they will count on
