REPORTS UPON THE INSANE.
Managers of Eastern Asylums Agree
That Lunacy Is on the
Increase.

For few years reports of managers
of asylums for the insane have gener-
ally agreed that insanity is on the
increase in this country, the feverish
character of life being assigned as a
potent cause, says the New York Even
ing Post. Only occasionally has it
been suggested that the conclusions as
to the increase were wrong and that
the larger number of insane found in
public institutions indicated a more
general resort to such institutions
rather than an increase in the ratio
of insane to population. Some support
for this theory is found in a recent
announcement by the Indiana board of
state charities. The board thinks it
safe to say that insanity is not in
creasing proportionately in Indiana.
Possibly, could we sift the poor-asylum
population and verify our figures, we
should find that less proportionate
number of our population is insane
than was the case 20 years ago"
From the most reliable statistics OBJ
tainable it is learned that the ratio
of insane to the population in Indiana
in 1880 was one in 565, No figures for
1890 are available, but in 1892 the ratio
was stated to be approximately one to
600. In 1898 the ratio based upon the
population estimated by the bureau of
statistics, was thought TO be one to
675. Taking the number that year
(4,aOo) and using the population of
1900, the ratio would be one to 5S5.
Using the figures tabulated in the of
flee Of the board, the ratio would be,
according to the census of 1900, one
to 55s. As explaining how lists of the
insane are sometimes unduiy swelled,
the board says that feeble minded or
epileptic persons and those in senile
condition are often classified as insane,
particularly by almshouse managers.

NEW YORK COUNTY SEATS.
Some Capitals Which Have Been Left
behind In the States
Progress.

There are 81 counties in New York
out lde of the New YORK city district
and some curious facts are shown by
a study of the county seats. Rural
New Workers are very tenacious of
their county capitals and only for
most serious reasons is one of them
changed, says the Sun.
Montgomery county, which was es-
tablished more than a century and
quarter ago, still has the little village
of Fonda, a town of 1900 inhabitants,
as it's capital, though Amsterdam is
within it's boundaries and is the ac-
tual capital, to all intents and pur-
poses. Washington county, established
in 1772. has the village of Argyle as
it's capital, although Whitehall and
Fort Edward are much more impor-
tant places. The capital of Allegany
county is the little town of Belmont,
and Chautauqua, which includes Dun
kirk, with population of 11,Ooo, and
jamestown, with a population of
90 900, has as its capital the village of
Mayville.
Geneseo, a town of 2,4OO people, Is
the capital of Livingston county.
Goshen, town of 2,s00, is the capital
of Orange county, which includes
Newburgh and Port Jervis. Carmel is
the capital of rutnam, and Clarks-
town the capital of Rockland, which
includes Haverstraw, with a popua-
tion of 5000. Bath is the capital of
Steuben. which includes the city of
Corning, with more than twice Baths
population Riverhead is the capital
of Suffolk county, though Southamp-
ton is larger.
In the selection OF the original coun-
ty capitals geographical lines were,
before the era of railroads, the only
ones regarded. Various New York
counties are intersected with high
roads. some of which date back to
colonial times. When a county was
established the town nearest the CEN
ter was selected as the capital if on
highroad, and thereafter county build
ings were constructed in it with a
view of permanence and regardless of
the industrial developments which
might come later. In the building of
railroads level surfaces rather than
established highroad lines were fol
lowed, and as a result of this the cap
itals are in many cases off the line of
travel and not accessible.
Thus Canton, a town of 2,T5O, is the
capital of St. Lawrence county, though
Ogdensburg is the cnlef city and most
accessible town, and has population
of 12.600 ST. Lawrence became
county in 1902, and it enjoyed until
this year the distinction of being the
strongest republican county in the
state. This year it forfeited that dis
tinction to Onondaga, which includes
the city of Syracuse.
Capitals are fixed not by the legis-
lature, but by the boards of super
visors of the several counties, and
though legally these capitals are sub
ject to change. it is very seldom that
there is any change once the capital
is agreed upon. Before consolidation
of other territory with New York,
Jamaica was the capital of Queens.
There is one county in New York
which has two capitals, Seneca,
small western county between Cayuga
lake and Seneca lake. -3oth its cap
itals have historic names. ovid is
one, Waterloo is the other.
