OFFICIAL
DEATH MAP,

An Official death map has been pre-
pared under the direction of the CEN
sus bureau. The Washington cores
pondent for the Chicago Inter Ocean
says that this map shows that the
causes OF death are largely a matter
of geography and the twenty-one dis
tricts into which the country Is divld-
ed mark the limits OF different regions
where various diseases are most raw
aging. The most sensational deaths
occur in the Pacific coast region. In
tie state Of Washington. This is the
only district in which gunshot wounds
are reported as a prevalent cause Of
death. Heart disease, suicide and az
polexy show there the largest number
Of victims, and the record is held tor
alcoholis n. Lung trouble appears to
be most numerous along the Atlantic
coast from New York to Virginia and
along the Mississippi river from New
Orleans to the Ohio river. Typhoid
fever and malari comes far down the
the list in mountainous districts. but
appear at the top in North Carolina,
South Carolina. Georgia. Alabama,
Mississippi. Arkansas and Indian Ter
ritory. Although only three out of
ever 100 die of old age. there are a
few fortunate districts where old age
rivals consumption and malaria as the
cause Of death. Among these favored
spots are the Catskills, A~dirondacks,
Green mountains, parts Of Michigan
and Wisconsin, and the region on
either side Of the Missouri river.
Group and whopll g cough appear to be
the most dangerous in the districts
which have the least population and
where, presumably, medical aid is
most difficult. to obtain.
Cancer, a~ppoplexy and heart disease
are more to be expected in mountain
Gus parts of the country than in the
level districts.
In eight of the twenty n districts
rheumatism reaps a large harvest Of
deaths, noticeably in the thinly settled
States. where the inhabitants are
most exposed to the sudden changes
of the weather.
Generally speaking the majority OF
deaths in the country are from CHM
attic conditions; while those in the
cities are caused by social conditions

over which the flag of the free waves,
where the American army is stationed,
are governed by system Of laws in
the enactment of which they had no
voice and in the enforcement of which
they have no part.
The congress of our country is
creature of the constitution and if the
constitution does not govern, congress
is without power to enact legislation
fer any people.
On the first day of June, 1902, the
supreme court of the United States
announced a decision that should
bring home to every American citizen
a realizing sense of the trend of events
al the present hour The announce
ment is made by vote of five to four
of the supreme judges of the United
States that congress may pass laws
for the government of human beings
where the constitution of my country
does not go and is not the basis upon
which such legislation is had. If that
instrument intended by our fathers for
the protection of all the people over
which it holds sway is thus to be con-
strued when the rights of the Fill
plno are involved, what may we expect
when questions of our own internal
goversment come before the highest
/ tribunal of our country.
| | say to you without fear of contra
diction that the men who are today
controlling affairs in our land are not
the patriots of one hundred years ago,
government come before the highest
existed for the American people.
Congress cannot legislate where the
constitution does not apply. If it can,
then, sir, it is upon the same basis as
the English government, a nation with
out constitution, the very thing that
in the Madisonian debates our fathers
said should not exist in the great
American Republic of the western
hemisphere.
Democracy the Leader Of Freedom.
The American Republic must live.
hut it lives for the American people to
protect American institutions and for
the growth and development of Amer
lean civilization. American civillza-
ton does not mean that one man can
govern another without his consent.
American civilization does not mean
that the flag of the free will wave over
a slave American civilization does
not mean that the trust power of the
United States is to find Judgment ten
thousand miles from its national cap
itol.
American civilization means more
than this. 1t means honor. upright
ness, patriotism. 1t means love Of
humanity, equality of all men before
the law, and the right of every one TO
have a voice il the selection of his
lawmakers; less than this is tyranny;
more than this is not asked.
Go forth, Democracy, as the guiding
star of a great people. Thy wand Of
Independence and good government
has almost encircled the globe Per.
nit not one dark spot on thy fair
escutcheon, at home or abroad. but
ever live as the hope of a free people.
When thy banner is torn and tattered,
humanity trembles and oppression has
touched the foundation of liberty. it
remains for the children of Jefferson,
Jackson and Lincoln to be ever true
t. the eternal principles thou hast
taught, that this land may be of the
people, for the people, and by the
people.

An Incident Net Yet Settled.

The Georgia prison commission
has "vindicated' Warden ALA
good, saying that in whipping Miss
De Girls he was within his author
ity, and that it was only "an error
on the part IT the warden" 1t will
be news TO the people of Georgia,
no doubt, that there is any legal
authority for a prison warden to
whip prisoners of either sex, and
particularly 10 strip white women
and whip them until great welts
are raised upon their bodies As a
matter Of fact Allagood ought to
be made TO stand up before COM
pany of soldiers and fired full of
lead; the doctor who pronouL ced
Miss De Girls physically able to re
ceive whipping ought to be fired
out OF his profession and banished
forever from the society of decent
people; and the report of the pris-
on commission ought to be follow
eel by their resignation from the
Offices which they have disgraced.
Efforts have been made in some
States 10 revive the whipping post
for certain kinds Of crime, and
have always provoked indignant
opposition. 1t it is wrong to make
whipping punishment by law,
certainly it is brutal outrage
when n prison warden sets up a
little whipping post of his own for
the purpose of whipping white
women in way violating all the
obligations of decency. The press
of Georgia has been unit in con
deming the rUfiian Allagood, and
the people of the State should not
rest content with his resignation
He should be indicted and prose
cuted TO the utmost limit of the
law. and popular opinion should
not be content until all who have
participated in the crime or have
endeavored To excuse it are brand
ed with the universal contempt of
the people.-Memphis Commercial

Is Ii a Confidence Game?

In report on the insurance
features of the recently destroyed
Memphis Steam Laundry, which
appeared in yesterdays CONNER
cial Appeal, occurs this curious
bit of information.
The question of loss to the pat
rons in the linen and other goods
which they may have had burned
in the fire still continues an inter
| esting matter of discussion. A
small insurance policy was carried
by the laundry people to protect
their patrons from loss by fire, but
in insurance circles it is claimed
that this policy is valueless. A
numb Der of insurance men said yes
tcrday that the steam laundry had
no insurable interest in their pat
ron's laundry and that any policy
upon such goods was valueless g."
This reads strange and it is sug-
gestive of many things. 1t sug-
sests such things as "tiim fam"
drop the pigeon" ''congame,"
double CROSS" and other eccen
trio idioms that are 10 be found in
the vernacular of criminals.
1t is strans ely out of place in
Legitimate business dealing. AS
suming that the case is correctly
stated, we have insurance oompan-
les accepting money on policy
which they knew to be worthless.
To do this they had to convince
the holder of the policy that it was
valid and that it would be paid in
,ase of loss. If the policy is now
''valueless," as several insurance
men are quoted as saying that il
is, what Was believed TO be a bust
ness transaction is, in reality, Il
bunco game.
There may be some niceties in
law not visible to the eve of the
layman; but from a viewpoint oil
morality, it may be bluntly said
that there is no difference between
accepting money on worthless
insurance policy and In accepting
money on a worthless bank check
