A Sure Sign of Death.

From time to time we are Mortified by
learning that some person has been
buried alive, after assurances have been
given of death. Under these circum-
stances the opinion of rising French
physician upon the subject becomes of
worldwide interest; for since the tests
which have been in use for years have
been found unreliable, no means should
be left untried to prove beyond doubt
that life is actually extinct before con
veying our loved ones to the grave.
Doctor Martinez asserts that an unfai1ing
test may be made by producing blister
on the hand or foot of the body by hold
ing the flame of a candle to the same for
a few seconds, or until the blister is
formed, which will always occur. If the
blister contains any fluid, it is evidence
of life, and the blister only that pro-
duced by an ordinary burn; if, on the

contrary, the blister contains only steam,
it may be asserted that life is extinct.
The explanation is as follows: A corpse
is nothing more than inert matter, under
the immediate control of physical laws
which cause all liquid heated to certain
temperature to become steam; the cpl
dermls is raised, the blister produced; 1t
breaks with a little noise and the steam
escapes. But if, in spite of appearances,
there is any remnant of life, the organic
mechanism continues to be governed by
physiological laws, and the blister will
contain serious matter, as in the case OF
any ordinary burus. The test is as sim
pie as the proof is conclusive. Dry bis
ter: death. liquid blister: life. Any
one may try it, there is no error possible.

The selection of ballot clerks under
the Australian law is a very important
matter and upon its satisfactory per-
torrance very much will depend. The
correct policy to be pursued has been
well set forth by the chairmen of the
State committees of the two parties, and
it only remains for the persons upon
whom the duty devolves to pursue it to
make everything harmonious. ANY
deviation from that policy will be certain
to create q suspicion that one party is
seeking to obtain an undue advantage
over the other. The law itself is ad-
nlittedly fair to both parties, let it's exc
cution be fair and there will be no ground
for complaint.

The bringing forward o. nlodt. Gov.
Halle of Massachusetts as candidate
or Governor by the Republicans is a
hopeful sign. Mr. Halle is universally
admitted to be not only strong with his
party, but he will draw largely from the
Independent vote. If no squabble inter-
yenes between this and convention day
and Mr. Halle is nominated with sub
stantial unanimity the next executive of
he Bay State will be a Republican.

1t is very amusing to see our esteemed
Democratic contemporaries berating the
Republican members of the House for
delaying legislation by flibustering.
The only way that such filibustering as
the Republicans have INDUCED in could
be successful was by breaking quorum,
and when it is remembered that the Re-
publican members of the House number
but about eighty and that the Democrats
have far more than quorum in their
own ranks, the fact that the Republicans
have been able to break quorum by re-
framing from voting discloses state of

The proposition which the Dominion
makes to Great Britain is somewhat cool
to say the least. If, says the Dominion
government, Great Britain will discrim-
mate in favor of the products Of Canada
by imposing duties on the products of
other countries, Canada will reduce it's
duties on British goods. In other words
if England will change her whole eco
nomic policy Canada will accord her bet
ter facilities to trade with her meagre
100000 of people. The answer which
England will make to that proposition
anybody can guess.

The rival congressional candidates in
the Third district appear to have come
out Of the delegate convention with
honors about easy. 1t becomes more
evident daily that the contest down there
is to be fought to a finish and that it will
not be settled till the delegates to the
Congressional convention have voted.
Stories about compromise are evidently
igments of the imaoination

A delegation of Massachusetts, tariff
reformers has gone to Washington to
urge upon the Democrats of the House
the removal of more duties and especially
the duties on iron. These gentlem en-
say that unless these last duties are re-
moved Democracy in Massachus tits is
dead. They will probably find, however,
that at this time the Democrats of the
House are much more deeply interested
in the Democracy of the iron producing
states than in that of Massachusetts,, and
the Democracy of the latter states are not
hankering for the removal of the iron
tariff. On the contrary they are very
much in favor of letting it remain.

The defeat of the Woman's Suffrage
bill in the House of Commons by only
twenty-three majority is, under the
circumstances. a substantial triumph
for its advocates. After Mr.. Glad
stones letter the feeling was that its
defeat would be 50 overwhelming that
further agitation would for long time
cease. But the small margin against the
bill has greatly encouraged the suffra-
gists, who will now carry the question
into the approaching campaign, and with
good prospect of success.

Debts, Federal, State and Local.
Boston Transcript.)

Boston Transcript.)
The indebtedness of the United States
Federal, State and local, is the topic of a
census bulletin recently issued. The
statistics are of the date of June l, 1890,
when the national debt Of the United
States was 1891, 1850, 104, decrease OF ST.
$50, 557 300 during the decade. Of the
other forms of debt, that of the States
had decreased from 1927, 244, 095 in 1880
to $22S, 997, $3.50 in 1890. County debts, on
the other hand, rose from 1924, 105, 02l to
S145, 04S, 045; nun cipal, from 1854, 34S,-
SAB to 1924, 463, 900; and school district
debts from SIT, 5S0,6s to $36, 70l, 94S.
Nevertheless the per capita Indebtedness
has declined in the decade for all cate
gories save that for school districts. The
Indebtedness per capita for all classes of
debt covered by the bulletin in 1890 and
1880 respectively is set forth as follows:
,..,o,,., ,,,,. 1929. e 1882 @
State "a ................. 1855 5.93
County .....-.......... 2.42 2.41
Municipal q ................ 1857 1884
School district debt ............ O.59 O.35
In the United States, while the in
crease of county, municipal and school
district Indebtedness more than offsets
the reduction Of State debts, the vast in
crease of taxable property and the growth
of population keep down the tax rate
and reduce the per capita. The people
of the United States grumble about their
taxes a good deal, but in truth there is no
nation of equal importance that gets
along with less taxation than the United
States.

facts so discreditable to the Democrats
that it would seem that their organs
would be only too anxious to keep still
about it. Instead Of that they are en-
phasizing it daily. Furthermore if Re
publican advice had been followed when
the rules of the House were framed it
would have been impossible, notwith-
Standing the remarkable absenteeism on
the part of the Democrats to have broken
quorum, unless by actually departing
from the House. The Republicans adj
vocated the rule for counting a quorum
which was adopted in the last House,
but the Democrats said no, thus practi-
cally giving their sanction and approval
to the practice of breaking quorum by
refusing to vote. Had the advice of the
Republicans been followed the filibuster-
ing which the Democratic organs are
just now SO busy rebuking would have
been impossible.

The Terrible Mine Disaster Is Even
Worse Than First Reported.
PRAGUE, June s.-Further particulars
concerning the burning of the silver
mine show that the fire began in the
Marine shaft. Speaking tubes connect
the surface with the various galleries.
When the fire was discovered no re-
sponse could be obtained from the tubes,
but later, to the joy of the rescuers,
voices came from the gallery next to
