IS INSANITY INCREASING 2

The figures of the official reports
show that insanity has increased more
rapidly in ratio than has the population
in Connecticut. For, in 1880, there was
one insane person there to every 7SS
OF the population, while in 1890 there
was one to every 36S inhabitants.
If the showing made by this New
England State reflected similar con-
ditions in other States, it would be
most alarming fact It Is with salts
faction we find, therefore, an analysis
of the figures by DIR. Down, of the Hart
ford Retreat for the Insane, in which he
holds that the figures of the asylum
statistics are not true, because the def
inition Of the word insanity has ex-
perienced a great modification within
the last forty or fifty years. He argues
that insanity has not really increased in
Connecticut If not there, then may we
not conclude that 1t has not much in
creased in other States? DR.. Down
holds that hundreds are now classed
insane who were not SO considered for
merly.
Large numbers of persons to whom
the term lunatic seemed difficult to
to apply came within the limits of the
definition and were registered as in
sane. Eccentric characters who were
harmless enough If unmolested by the
small boys, and weak adults, came to
be included among those Of unsound
mind, and found themselves comforta-
bly, housed in our State institutions
without one care or thought for the
to-norrow's meal, and glad to change
their uncertain mode of living for the
regularity and order which prevail in
our modern hospitals or asylums.
1t is gratifying to hear this ex-
PLANTATION; nevertheless, we are con-
strained to believe that there is a
larger proportion OF insane among our
people now than there was even a
quarter of century ago. The strain.
the nervous tension, in business and in
public life, and in all the ordinary
walks Of life. are severer, and the rush,
hustle, license and extravaganza and
the intemperance in several ways, are
greater now than ever before. Our
people live more rapidly" with less OF
the provident care, and in more Of con-
tention. All these and other modern
influences have more or less tendency
to I'LL up the asylums for the insane
The Atlanta Constitution, consider
Ing the subject, well says:
Regardless of the manner In which
this question may be settled, 1t canno'
be denied that Americans need to be
more prudent. Incessant application
together with the care and worry incl
dent to business, is not calculated to
promote a vigorous condition either oi
mind or body; and what is needed by
the great mass of the American people
Is less worry over business matters and
q greater amount Of wholesome relax
alton.

While the Permanent Arbitration"
fadists are counseling how to accom-
pIish the end of annexing the United
States to England by means of a perma-
nent court of arbitration, we find one
man in the British Isles who sees clear
lv. Henry NJ. Stanley says:
I regret to have to admit that as yet
7 cannot conceive the possibility of a
permanent system of arbitration be-
tween England and America or between
England and any growing rival Ma
tions do not always speak the same Ian
guage of moderation that would make
such a system possible. America in
1906 will not speak as she does in 1896,
or as she did in 1876. Ten years hence
she will not say, II beg you will oblige
me-" but, Il demand you will yield i'm
mediately." Twenty years hence she
will be still more peremptory; and when
a nation adopts language of that kind to
another nation, it is absurd to talk of
referring the matter to arbitration.
That is to say, however much Stanley
may desire a permanent board. he sees
that it ought to be to our interest to be
opposed to it; to let each case stand on
its own legs; to rest upon our rights
with the power massed to enforce them.
Ry such means we will be able to pre-
vent the arising Of cases for a perma-
nent court.

BIZ NO MEANS ERROR.
The Tulare Register" says:


The "Record-Union" falls into a curl
Gus error for a paper as discriminat-
ing as that paper generally is, but
everybody has to be "agin" something,
and the "Record-Union" is "agin'
woman suffrage. "The one foremost
thing really testing the merits Of the
controversy, and one not to be lost sight
Of under any circumstances" says the
Record-Union," "is the question: What
is best for woman?" Beg pardon, but
that is not the question at all The real
question is: What is best for the Statei
Before this question no other question
of human rights or human wrongs car
ever stand.
With entire respect for the opinion
of our esteemed contemporary, we
stand by our proposition, though the
Register" misquotes us. What we
said was: what is best for woman
and the home" For 1t is undeniabaly
true that what is best for woman and
the home is best for the State. Similar
ly. the same might be said Of men, and
Of children, and of all things wover
