lings, Surgeon Z. $. Army, has
consented to take charge Of the
Report on the Mortality aud Vital
Statistics of the United States as
returned by the Eleventh Census.
As the United States has no sys.
TEN of registration of vital stats
tics such az is relied upon by other
civilized nations for the purpose OF

only opportunity of obtaining
near an approximate of the birth

municipal registration.
In view Of this, the Census Office,
during the month of May this year,
will Issue to the medical profession
throughout the country "Physi-
clans Registers" for the purpose Of
obtaining more accurate returns Of
deaths than 1t is possible for the

estly hoped that physicians in
every part of the country will co.
operate with the Census Ctlce IN
this important work. The record
should be kept from June |, 1889,
to May 81, 1890. Nearly 10000 OF
these registration books were filled
up and returned to the Office in
1880, and nearly all OF them used
for statistical purposes. 1t is hoped
that double this number will be
obtained for the Eleventh Census.
Physicians not receiving Regis
tiers can obtain them by sending
their names and addresses TO the
Census Office, and, with the Regis

If all medical and surgical prac

will lend their aid, the mortality

take a personal pride in having

il IS possible to make il.
1t is hereby promised that all in

through persons well calculated u
Judge, we are inclined to regard
the following totals az much nearer
the actual money loss IN property
destroyed than any aggregates pre-.
viously published: AT Johnstown
and other points throughout the
COnemaugh Valley, the Pennsyl-
wanna railroad losses in that region,
and the loss of the Cambria Iron

losses TO other railway companies

Every Southern Negro to Vote the
Democratic Ticket.
bristol News.1

The Charleston, s. c., Ners and
Courier frankly admits that the
Democratic party is to DO the
"nigger party" of the future. Up
here in Virginia this will sound
like strange doctrine, but the Ns'rs
and Courier is a Democrat from
DemOcratville, and its word must
be taken to mean something. In
it's issne of last Tuesday. its edi'
torlal touching Mr.. WIN. l.. Royals
expressed desire to be elected to
Congress on a negro disfranchise-
ment platform. Itsays:
"Whether they vote or not, the
negroes make good counters, and
give the Southern States q voice In
the electoral college and in Con
gress, which they could Lot enjoy
if the negroes we're DISTINGUISHED.
Besides, the time Is speedily com
ing, under the benign influence Of
Democratic rule IN the South, when
every Southern negro will vote the
Democratic ticket, and have his
vote counted for all that it Is worth.
No, no, Mr.. Royal, you will never
be elected to Congress on your
anti.negro platform; and il 700
should be elected the Northern aud
Southern Democrats will defeat
your efforts to repeal the Fifteenth
Amendment. They know good
thing when they see it, and ap.
preciate fully the political power
which the South enjoys on account
of the negro vote"
