PRISON AND CRIME STATISTICS.
brooklyn Chronicle.1
A decrease in the prison population
of the state is by no conclusive
evidence of decrease in the amount of
crime committed. We once heard the
mayor of a county seat boast that there
had not been an arrest for drunken
ness there for three months, yet there
had scarcely been a day of the time
when druken men had not made a
nuisance of themselves on the streets.
Is the decreased prison population of
the state owing to decreased crime or
to growing laxity in the enforcement
of law? There would be more murder
ers in the penitentiary If the legislature
had not pardoned the majority OF them.
Hating. expensive and uncertain
criminal prosecution may be respon-
sible for much of the decrease in the
population of the prisons.

THE DIES MONIES INTERVIEW.
dalton In the Manson Democracy
Somebody or something around the
office OF that usually fair
the Des Moines Capital, needs fixing
and needs it badly. Last week the
published what purported to
an interview with the editor of
this paper, In which we were made to
say some pretty mean things about
our very best friends and co-workers
In Iowa democratic politics. And the
week before last the same kind Of IN
interview was published In the Cap
ital and we were made to say some
hard things. The editor Of
this paper has no o apollo
gies to make to anybody for anything
does say, but trusts that those who
feel injured at what he is reported to
nave said will merely let it go in one
ear and out the other and rest assured
that he said absolutely nothing that
would injure the feelings of a friend.

MOST COMPANIES SOLVENT.

II is generally conceded that there
lie not rs much danger of the fire insur-
anoe companies being ruined by the
Baltimore fire as was at first thought.
This is true particularly of the large
companies.
The Louisville Herald says that the
Chicago and Boston fires 33 years ago
taught underwriters a valuable lesson
and the Baltimore fire will not do one
tenth the damage TO insurance com
panies that was done after the two bis
fires just mentioned.
Continuing, the Herald says:
"Sinoe 1872 all the we'll. managed
companies have been building up sur
plusses to meet the inevitable conflsg
ration that they knew must come in
time. There was no more practical
reason why the Chicago fire should
have spread as it did than that the Bal
simore fire should have escaped con-
troll But there was practical way to
limit e.damage to the general public
and the insurance companies have
done that by accum ulating surplusses.
For years demagogues have pointed &c
these surplusses as the result OF extor-
tionate rates. This is not true. The
companies have held them in trust for
the disaster that experience had taught
them would in due time clamor to be
believed.
