SIIsIcadinr Statistics.

Too implicit trust should not b- placed in extraordinarily low dcat!, rates, says a London statistician. It is frequently stated that the death rate Of sOrGe particular place is but eight. ten or twelve per thousand inhabitants A moments consideration will show that such figures are fallaciOus, for death rate of ten per thousand means either that every child born reaches the age of lot. or that the average age of ;lH who lie is lGe. It Is certain that there is nc cGmmInity ;n which every child that oanles into the world will pass safely through the many dangers that bcset :hiIdhOId. and therefore death rate Oi .cn pc, i!io'lsaiid must mean that cverr iduiC ,tcC ,l.cs is considerably ov.r !E sars of 5ga.--Eew Y"sE Tyis grain.

We don't like the way the Arizona Republican is starting out. It is DO secret that the various Federal and Ter ritorial officials were asked to contribute to the fund to start the paper, and others have since been asked for dOna- tions to help support it. Somo contribut- ed and others did not. There is nothing particularly objectionable in this, but when the paper begins to abuse those who refused to contribute, that is alto gether a different matter. Mir. Drake refused to put anything into the fund, and few days since the Republican attacked him. Mr. Drake is too well known in the Territory to need defence at our hands from attacks by strangers or anyone else. The Republican pro- fesses to be working for the best interests of the Republican party in the the Ter ritory, yet is scarcely two weeks old be fore it attacks one of the best known and influential members of the party in liIO IciilCOlS -DcCduoo uo VIII uOJ obey the behests of the people who are running the paper, and it is to be pre- sumed that others will receive like kind ly notice. If this is working for the best interests of the party, then is the Epitaph mistaken in its interpretation. If the Republican continues in this course, although it is good newspaper, as far as any good it can do the party its existence will be worse than useless, and it is doomed to failure under it's present management. The Epitaph had made up its mind to let bygones be bygones, but it connot stand by and see all old personal friend and true and tried R. publican causelessly abused without entering protest.

4 REPUBLICAN WHO STILL REGARDS
THE TRUTH.
The Topeka NelUs, which for some
weeks has been giving expression
to some very independent sentiments,
is becoming more outspoken with
each issue. The old party methods
and the persistent falsehoods Of the
party press have become intolerable
TO the editor Of the NelCs, as they must
be to decent people everywhere. He
has not, 80 far as we have seen, de-
olared himself a supporter of the
peoples party, but speaking as a self
respecting republican, he does not
hesitate to declare Enthusiastically his
disgust at the course Of the press Of
the party with which he has been as
scented. If he still adheres to his
party, he is to be commended for his
honesty, and II the policy OF the party
and its press drive him over to IFS we
shall receive him with open arms. In
either case we take pleasure in com
mending him and his paper Go all
who love justice and value truth. He
is not one OF those who believe that
'the purihcation Of politics is an irri-
descent dream" or that it is strictly
to "hire Hessians, purchase
mercenaries," and commit all the
crimes named in the decalogue to Sc
cure political ascendency. Farmers,

the American people to the deliber-
ate policy Of existing parties, and the
greater part Of it to the republican
party alone. We are prepared TO
sustain these charges by the history
Of the past thirty years We have
repeatedly presented these issues to
the republican press, How have
they been metz Only by ridicule and
evasion. The argument (') is: "The
alliance is southern institution.
The president, l.. L. Polk, is a rebel
and the order is democratic. It's pur-
pose is TO defeat the republican par
ty." This is tho only answer TO the
issues presented This is republican

dare 10 undertake a candid and logi-
cal discussion Of the questions pre-

large proportion of them were also

ignorant of these facts. This wilful

MEET THE ISSUES.

party as the exponeHts Of It's princi-
Plies and interests in the state OF Kan
sas, stoadily and persistently refuse
10 engage in any discussion Of the
living issues that are engaging the
attention Of the people in the pend
ing political contest We have re-
poatedly presented these issues and
invited a discussion Of their merits,
and they have been, and still continue
10 be persistently ignored. Wa pro-
pose al this time to restate them and
again invite republican patriots TO a
defense Of their principles and their
party We present the following dis
tinct and specific propositions which
we again defy republican journals to
controvert;
First During the past twenty-five
years there has been a constant do
cline Of the general business interests
Of the country.
Second During this time there has
been 4 constant depreciation in values
Of land, Of labor and the products Of
industry.
Third The demand for labor has
largely declined, and as a consequence
the land has been overrun with
tramps. I.H
Fourth The masses Of the people
have been and still are becoming
poorer day by day.
Fifth The wealth Of the country is
rapidly concentrating in the hands Of
a few men.
Sixth England, by the pur-
chase OF our lands and industries, IL
rapidly achieving u conquest Of
America with her gold that she could
never hope to achieve by the sword.
These are a few of the grievances OF
which the American people complain.
We charge these evils directly to the
following among other specific acts
Of class Legislation:
First The exception clause in the
act providing for the issue OF national
currency which deprived the old
greenback Of the properties and pow
ers Of a full legal tender currency.
by this act two kinds Of money we're
created one for the banker and
bOndhOlder, and the other for the
people; and the value of the peoples
money was deprecated by act Of Con
gross
Second The issue OF interest bear
ing government bonds which were
not only entirely unnecessary, but
were designed in the interest and for
the enrichment of a disloyal but IA
vored class.
Third The establishment Of the
national banking system, by which
the authority TO issue money which
belongs alone to the government un-
der the constitution, was delegated to
a favored class upon whom we're be-
slowed numerous special and valuable
franchises and privileges, all Of which
are detrimental to che interests of the
