Mr.. Spencer was wrong. He failed to

San Francisco, and Denver the latter
pace is exceeded. But Mr.. Spencer would
have found, If he had taken the trouble
to investigate, that the average length
of life in America exceeds the average
in England, and that the proportion of
our population that Is confined within
asylums for the insane is considerably
less than in either England, France or
Germany. I believe that the greater
