The Portland daily press., 1891-08-04

The bulletin Of the census bureau relative
10 pauperism and crime shows relative a:
well as absolute increase in the number oil
prisoners lodged in county jails on the fir 81
OF June, 1890, as compared with the number
in 1880. 1t is a fact Of some interest that the
total number of criminals so confined may
be divided into three classes, nearly equal
numerically, under the heads of foreign born,
native born, white and colored prisoners, but
the chief result obtained from the investi-
cations of Mr.. Wines is that regarding the
numerical increase of prisoners from Il, sol in
1880 to 1858 last year. This is an absolute
increase of 6S57, or 53.95 per cent. We have
half as many more inmates in our jails to-day
than we had ten years ago and meanwhile
the population of the country has been in
creasing at much slower rate. The signif-
canoe Of this fact is brought out again Ia the
statement that in 1880 the ratio of county jail
prisoners to the population was 252 in each
million, while in 1890 this ratio had increased
to 312. Nor has the increase been over any
small area, for Vermont is the only State to
report an absolute decrease, relative losses
come from only California, the Dakotas, the
District of Columbia, Illinois. Maryland,
Ohio. Oregon. Texas and Wyoming, ard
these decreases as rule have boon very
slight.

Parnelps last nope Of retaining the conf.
-denoe Of any considerable fraction of the
Irish party was gone when Messrs. O'Brien
and Dillon refused to give him any support
and arrayed themselves on the side of MIR.
Mccarthy. Both of these men are very infu.
entail with the Irish people because they
have shown willingness to undergo suffering
intheir behalf. Besides MIR. Dillon, at least
Is man Of great intellectual force, as capa
BILE probably of directing a constitutions
agitation as Mr.. Parnell. The future of Mr.
Parnell, therefore, becomes very interest
ing question. In his speech at Thurles the
only indication Of what he proposed to do
was contained in his declaration that he
still distrusted Mr.. Gladstone, and that
there would be no change in his policy,
His policy OF late, not designedly probably,
but nevertheless quite as effectively as II
designedly. has been to play into the hands
OF the Tories, by dividing the Irish party
and Withdrawing portion of 1t from the
support of the English Liberals. II there Is
to be no change in his policy. then he is to
indirectly assist the Tories as far forth as
he is able. But this last blow at the conf
dence Of the Irish people In him In the seces-
sion Of O'Brien and Dillon has probably In
great part destroyed that ability. He can
still do something, however, In that direc.
ton, and to do what he can appears to be
his present intention.

That legislatures can do something to
ameliorate the condition of labor is well
shown in Col. Carroll d. Wright's lecture
on factory legislation In the United States.
Through legislation shorter hours have been
established; operators given protection from
dangerous machinery and explosions; better
ventilation of factories provided; industrial
and evening schools established; besides
many other reforms which have greatly in
creased the comfort of the operative.

1t Is gratifying to note that verdict has
just been recovered against the town of
Somersworth, N. H., for damage resulting
from runaway caused by handbills scat
tered about the street to advertise some con-
Germ. The people Of almost every town Of
considerable size have had experience with
this hand bill business and know that 1t is a
great nuisance. "a great many smashed
carriages and broken limbs have resulted
from 1t, while no good has come from it
even in the way Of advertising that might
not have been obtained in greater quantity
and at cheaper price in dollars and cents,
not taking into account the indirect cost
through accidents resulting from it. The
ordinary circular showered from cart along
the streets, rarely finds any readers. They
fall to the ground like snowflakes to remain
there until they are worn out by the attri-
ton OF passing teams or collected and car
ried away by the street cleaners. Every
dollar invested in them is lost. Judicious
advertising pays, but this kind OF advertise
ing Is not judicious, and 1t involves dangers
of avery serious nature. and the experience of
Somersworth shows that these dangers are lia-
BILE to make heavy drain on the treasury of
the town within whose precincts they are

The Maryland Democratic State CONVEX
ton took the somewhat unusual course OF
nominating a candidate for United States
Senator, unanimously recommending the
Hon. Arthur P. German for that position.
The legislature of course is not bound by
this nomination, even though 1t be Democrat
ic, but its action probably will have great
weight, and would, even though there were
likely to be contest over the seat. The
Florida Times Union, commenting upon this
action of the convention, heartily approves Of
it:and thinks the practice is likely to become
general. There is something to be said in
favor of 1t, provided 1t is understood before
hand that convention is to take such ac-
tlon and the delegates are chosen In view OF
1t. Senatorial elections as rule are too far
away from the people. and process that
will tend to bring them nearer will prove
advantageous. The selection of candidates
by the party conventions appears to be the
only feasible plan, outside Of direct
vote by the people which would require Q
change of the constitution.
The Portland daily press., 1891-08-04

The Comptroller of the Currency says
that in consideration of recent discoveries Of
bank crookedness, he is disposed to recon-
mend the passage of law holding director:
to more rigid accountability, and making
them subject to fine and Imprisonment when
they neglect their duties. 1t may be posi-
BILE, very likely is, for bank directors to give
closer attention to the banks affairs than
many Of them do at present. But the idea
which prevails In some quarters that the
directors of bank or iany other Institution
can keep the run Of the business of the insti.
tuition with which they are connected, from
day to day is absurd. To do that they
would have to become managers and per-
sonally attend to the business. Anybody
can imagine what would be the result If half
a dozen men undertook to personally man
age bank or any other institution from day
to day. The best safeguard board Of d.
rectors can take is to have an examination of
the accounts at frequent intervals by an ex.
pert accountant. This is perfectly feasible,
but for directors to undertake personally a
direct supervision is not feasible and If II
were 1t would result in differences of opinions
which would prove disastrous

Judge Mckay. the Kansas Farmers ALI

preme Court Of that state, Is again making
trouble. He has just set aside all the Judge
ments OF the special judge who had presided
while he was being tried for contempt, and
Instructed the clerk of the District Court to
file no more journal entries until they were
signed by him. The Alliance has espoused
McKay's cause, and every branch In
his district has denounced the Sn-
preme court. Indeed there is talk of
putting him on the Supreme bench.
though he knows nothing at all of law. The
lawyers In his district charge that he has
taken under adVisement motions which
have been filed of mortgage foreclosure
cases with no intention of deciding them,
but in order to force them to be taken out of
his Jurisdiction TO the Supreme Court. This
will delay the proceedings four years, dur
ing which time the mortgagOr will remain in
