A TEMPERATE COMMUNITY.

sEoUIM, Nov. co. 1891
To THE EDITOR: In last weeks posT-ISTELr
LIGENcER noticed the interesting interview of
your reporter with Rev. NJ. Eells, regarding the
mammoth's tusk and about the Indians in this
locality. Among other things the reverend
gentleman is made to say that the Indians are
not so much addicted to intemperance as most
of the whites In the vicinity, but still there Is
good deal of room for reformation in this re-
spect Now the above remarks consider CAL
culated to give a bad impression of the morals OF
rs who live in this locality.
I will say nothing about the Indians, but
when went to school recoliect headline
often wrote in my copy book in half text-"Com-
Parsons are odious" Now consider the COM
parison Mr.. Eels is said TO have made particn-
larry and decidedly so. Take a radius OF two
miles around the Indian town of jamestown
and you will not find single Incorporate
white man, and know of only few, seven or
eight, in this end OF the county. surely Mr. Eells
forgot what he was talking about at the time,
that Ii ii he was truly reported. Yours
truly, JOHN GooDE.

false pretenses flag as a decoy and cover
for piracy. Incensed by this just refusal
to apologize, Sir John Bowring at once
bombarded Canton for twenty days.
When the news reached England Rich
ard Golden at once moved a vote OF CEN
sure "for the violent means resorted to at
Canton in the late affair of the Arrow. "
Mr.. Golden was supported in this demand
by Gladstone, Disraeli, Lord Lytton. Lord
John Russell, the present Marquis Of SAL
isbury. Lord Seiborne, Lord Grey and
Lord Houghton. The vote of censure was
carried by 253 votes to PAT. Lord Palmer
ston took an appeal 10 the country and
made successful demagogue appeal to
British race prejudice and pugnacity. The
splendid array of English eloquence and in
teIlect that in both parties backed Golden
was of no avail against the wave of pop
ular Indignation excited by Cobden's
calm inquiry whether China had any
rights under treaty that an honorable
Christian nation was bound to respect.
Golden, Bright Miner Gibson, Layard
and many other leading opponents of
the coercive Chinese policy of Palmerston
lost their seats. Palmerston was sus-
tanned by the English people for his bonn
bardment of Canton, one of the blacklist
and most shameful pages in English his
tory.
That the English resident at Hongkong,
Sir John Bowring, should have committed
this great outrage was something for
which England was not to blame, but
when Lord Palmerston justified it, and
when his appeal to the people on the par
liamentary vote of censure was over
wheimingly sustained England became re-
sponsible and therefore the bombardment
of Canton can be fairly recited as an illus
tration of how England treats a weak gov
eminent when demand for an apology,
because of real or assumed grievance, is
refused.
II Mr.. Blaine and President Harrison
had adopted the English method they
would have demanded an instant apology
of Chile upon pain of bombardment of
Valparaiso, and on its refusal, would have
opened fire. That is the English method
of dealing with weak powers. Does our
American method thus far suffer by COM
parison with that of our critical cousin,

THE POPULATION OF THE WORLD.
"There is no creature loves me;
And if l die, no soul shall pity me-"

The latest and most authoritative esti-
Inmates of the population ofthe world give
total of nearly 1,4S0, 900. The investi-
cations of recent years have shown con-
clusively that the population of China has
been greatly exaggerated, and the accepted
figures have been reduced from 405, 000, 900
to 350,000,000. The former estimate of the
population ofthe Congo Basin has been re-
duced from 100000 to 14,0o0,00o The
former estimate of the population of Asia
has been reduced 100000, and that of
Africa So 100000. The latest data of the
German statisticians, Doctors Supan and
Wagner, afford the best approximation
that can be made In our present state of
information, and give the following figures
of the population of the great divisions of
the earth's surface.
Europe, 3o7,379,0OO, or "a to the square mile.
Asia, s25,95i,oo0, or ~ to the square mile.
Africa, los, 953,000, or Ia to the square mile.
The Americas, 12l, $4,000, or s to the square

Australia, $3.50 900, or / to the square mile.

LOST VOTES.
Polar regions, so, 400.
Grand total, 1.479,729,4 400.

The Australian system of voting seems
to have been too much for about thirty
thousand Ohio voters at the recent cleo
ton. They succeeded in voting on the
governorship, but did not vote for candi-
dates for any of the other offices to be
filled
The Ohio law provides that cross
marked opposite the name of party on
the official ballot shall count as a vote in
favor of all the candidates of that party.
About $4,000 Democrats and about II, 900
Republicans, however, made the mistake
of marking a cross opposite only the name
of the candidate for governor, evidently
thinking that by doing this they were
voting the straight ticket.
As result of this stupidity Major Nc
Kinley's majority is from 5000 to 5000 less
than the majorities of the other candi-
dates on the Republican ticket, although
he secured over 1900 more votes than any
of them. In the same manner Governor
Campbell ran from 1900 to 1000 votes
ahead of his ticket

Lord IyttOn.

1t 10 worth noting that the original family
name was Buiwer, and other branches are
known only by that name, while the father of
the young diplomatist took the hyphenated
title of Bulwer-Lytton when raised TO the
peerage, there is some confusion of persons in
the American mind. The family is an old one,
of Norman origin, and at the beginning of this
century General Bulwer OF Heydon Hall and
Wood boiling, Norfolk, was its most conspic-
nous representative. He married Elizabeth
Barbara Lytton, sole he!ress of the Knebworth
estates, and their youngest son was Edward
George Bulwer. the very voluminous author,
whose works were SO widely read In the last

THE SOUTH AND THE SPEAKER
SHIP.

The speaker of the House was first
elected from the South in the Seventh,
Eighth and Ninth congresses when Ma
thaniel Macon, of North Carolina, occu-
pied the chair. Henry Clay was speaker
of the Twelfth and Thirteenth congresses,
and was succeeded by Langdon Cheeves,
of South Carolina. Then Clay was speaker
of the Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Six
teenth congresses. | Philip p. Barbour
succeeded Clay for abrief term, and then
Clay Sscarne speaker of the Eighteenth
congress. Andrew Stevenson, of Virginia,
was speaker of the Twentieth, Twenty
first, Twenty-second and Twenty-third
congresses. and Southern men were
elected speakers up TO the Twenty-ninth
congress-, when John Davis became
speaker. Howell Cobb, of Georgia, was
speaker of the Thirty-frst congress. Linn
BOYD, of Kentucky, presided over the
Thirty-second and Thirty-third congresses,
and James L. Orr, of South Carolina. over
the Thirty-fith congress.
Thus between 1850 and 1861 the South
held the speakership As years out of ~.
Since 1861 no Southern man from the re-
belling states has been chosen speaker
the Democratic speakers, Kerr and Ran
dali, being Northern men, while Carlisle
was from the border state of Kentucky,
from the present outlook that the next
speaker will be either Crisp of Georgia, or
Mills of Texas. The probable selection of
s4Southern man, and an ex-Confederate
Soldier. from an ex-Confederate state. for
&peaker Is due to the exceptional strength
N the Democracy in the House. The
next step ought logically to be the nonin-
a1ion of an ex-Confederate soldier for pres
fdent by the Democracy. The Democrats
II the South have had no candidate for
president in either of the great national
parties since 1SfS. when Taylor was
elected. Breckenridge, Of Kentucky, in
1860, was only the candidate of a
divided party, polling but s47, io4 votes
against I,37i664 votes cast for Douglas.
The South therefore may be said TO have
had no candidate for president in either of
the great national parties for forty-three
wears. Since the war the South has not
nretended TO present Southern man for
the presidency, and yet the South fur
nished f5S of the 2i9 electoral votes by
which Cleveland was made president in
1854. and in 1883 it gave him within fifteen
of all the electoral votes he received. The
South feels strong enough for the first
t;me 10 press an ex-Confederate soldier
into the speakers chair and the time is
near AT hand when 1t will name an ex-
Confederate soldier as the Democratic oc-
cupant of the White House.
Mills was colonel in the Confederate
army, and Crisp served three years in the
Confederate army until 1864, when he was
taken TO prison and confined in Fort Della
ware over year.

Judge Thomas Burke seems to have
grown very garrulous while he was in Chi
cago recently. His interview in the Chi
cagc Herald leads ono to believe that he
forgot his usual reserve and talked with .
freedom which bellies his reputation for
discretion.
Judge Burke's theme was politics. He
sold the Herald just how the Democrats
propose to elect senator from the state of
washington. The plan is magnificent
one. The Farmers Alliance is to elect
some members Of the legislature. The
democrats are to elect some more. Then
the Alliance members and the Democratic
members are to unite and overwhelm the
wicked Republicans by electing a Demo-
crat TO the United States Senate.
The consideration of this programme
must delight the third party Alliance men.
They are given fair notice that they are
expected to exist for the sole purpose of
assisting the Democrats. The Democratic
tiger and the Alliance lamb are to go out
together to do battle with the Republican
elephant, and to make matters snug and
comfortable. the lamb will be inside of the
tiger. And when the victory is won some
distinguished Democratic banker or rail-
roader is to be elected to the Senate
1t was kind of Judge Burke to give the
farmers notice of what their votes viii be
expected to accomplish. It was not so
wise as kind, however, for the farmers
may not like the prospect. They may re-
fuse TO join in partnership in which they
do half the work while the other fellows
get the spoils. They may continue in
their wonted tenor and elect Republican
legislature, and Judge Burke's glowing
prophecy may become nothing but an
siridescent dream"

The revelation of Lord Russell's de-
pravity before the English divorce court is
revolving tale; it paints the noble lord as
monomaniac of that disgusting type
which is historically represented by
Nero among Roman Emperors. Sue
touius, Martial and Juvenal make it clear
that the lunacy of morbid lust was COM
mon among the aristocracy Of Rome, and
Nero is recalled by the disgusting pranks
OF Lord Russell. There is insanity in the
family; the late Duke of Bedford COM
miited suicide.
