CRIMINAL STA TISTICS.
Facts as a rule are not more G

Facts as a rule are not more op-
posed to poetry than are statistics
to.the generally accepted theories
of mankind. There is scarcely a
subject in social science On which
the evidence of carefully collected
statistics has not contradicted some
long-established theory. Men used
to believe that the gloomy weather
of winter had a tendency to increase
the number of suicides until
figures were collected which show
ed that in all lands the greater num-
Der of suicides in any one year oc-
Cured in the balmy and beautiful
spring. Men once believed that
death and taxes were surer and
more certain in their coming than
anything else, until the statisticians

counted up and proved that the
rate of criminal offences was more
regular among civilized nations
than the death rate itself. The re-
Gently published criminal statistics
for 1890. issued by the Wardens
Associations of the United States
and Canada, overthrow two more
generally accepted doctrines. One
of these is the belief that education
has tendency to diminish crime,
and the other is the doctrine that
persons engaged in agriculture are
freer from criminal propensities
than any other class of people.
The percentages given in the
compilation show that among white
criminals only about 10 per cent.
are illiterate, and among negroes
only 1890 per cent. The classifi
cation in regard to the trades an d
occupations of criminals show that
while the percentage of persons
engaged in agriculture in 1880 was
44.19 per cent of the whole popu
lation, the number of persons ell
gagged in agriculture who were
convicted of penitentiary offences
was 1927 per cent. On the other
hand the percentage of persons en-
gagged in mining. manufacturing
and mechanical trades was 22OG
per cent of the whole population,
while the percentage of such per-
sons convicted of crime was but
6.55 per cent. That is to say that
while the agricultural population
of the country is hardly double that
engaged in mines, manufacturing
and mechanics, the criminal pop
ulation drawn from it is nearly two
and half times as great. 1t is, how
ever, from the class of citizens
known as s:professional and per-
sonal," which includes all the
learned professions and walters,
BARRIERS and body servants, that the
largest percentage of criminals is
recruited. These people constitute
only 23.02 per cent Of the popula-
ton and produce 1900 per cent of
the criminals of the country. Other
statistics of interest in the record
are the showings that out of 1852
male criminals G,691 had never
been married, and out Of the total
of $3.50 criminals only 227 were
women.

Lain is of the opinion that the
whole Chinese problem could be
solved by the enactment Of a stale
law forbidding the eXhunation OF
the bodies the dead, and another
requiring the burial ofal bodies in
the municipality where the death
occurred. This would prevent the
shipping of the bones of dead Chi
nese back to China, and it is be-
lieved that if this were done that
superstition would cause the whole
race to migrate. The suggestion
is a curious one, but it may have
some merit in it, though such laws
would prove veXatious to whites
as we'll as to Chinese.

The demand for California

The demand for California
canned and dried fruit has increas-
ed until it is almost a boom. The
short eastern crops have made it
certain that there will be ready
sale for all good California fruit
that can be got to the market, and
the Eastern commission men and
buyers were trying to secure all the
lots that can be had below top
prices. This is an improvement Oh
the attitude Of buyers last season,
and insures prosperity to the fruit
interest for this year. In spite Of
a reduced yield by late frosts it is
likely that the amount of money
brought into California this years
crop will be larger than ever. The
demand for California fruit is grow
ing year by year, and the time
when the limit will be reached is
not yet visible in the future. The
dreaded specter of overproduction
gets farther away with each years
increase in the area of bearing
orchards.-S. T. Examiner.

ECONOMY is necessary to success.
The spendthrift never succeeded.
No one can succeed who does
not conduct his business within
his income. Economy is one of
the hardest lessons, and it should
be learned, for it stands at the
very Threshold Of a successful bus
mess life. 1t is in the expenditure
Of small sums that economy should
be exercised. The amounts are
so small that no account of them
is taken, yet in the aggregate they
swell into no inconsiderable sum.
Young men spend a good deal OF
money usually, that should be laid
up for future use. Economy Is not
penuriousness That is not wise
in any one. Those who are most
successful in life have learned we'll
the lesson of economy.

The free trade press is fearfully
given to lying. The latest instance
is the assertion, in the discussion
of the Homestead affair, that
strikes are more frequent in iron
manufacturing than in any other
branch of business. The Phila-
delphia Press publishes the record
for six years, showing that the total
number of strikes in the United
States in that time was 22,3O4
OF these, only 1870 were in the
manufacture of all metals and all
kinds of metallic goods. In the
1870 strikes, only S57 succeed
ed; 152 partly succeeded, and 152
failed. These strikes cost the men
$12,S14,21s Of $51, ,s14,s23 lost on
strikes by labor during this period:
and employees $4,ss5,071 of the
$50, 0,701,553 sacrificed by capital
In duration and in the number
of men, these strikes were, how
ever, only one tenth of the total
for the country. In point of fact.
the greatest strikes this country
has seen have been on the railroads.
