due to the fact that men in charge of
trains allow their minds to be occupied
by politics.
There may be something in the idea
that train men get careless when thew

how they are going to be prevented
from such talking, and even if they
should be prevented from talking poll
tics quite as much as they have they
certainly can't be prevented from think

from talking and thinking about prize

things in which the wide-awake and

FNGIdND'S ARMY IN INDIA.

| There is a great deal Of frank talk
in England in these days. For in
stance, an Indian Officer" has pub
lished an attack upon Great Britain's
military establishment in India, which
is likely to provoke a public agitation
of the whole subject. He maintains
inadequate and largely obsolete; that
the personnel Is insufficient for war
of the first magnitude; that the trans
port'is wretched and that the guns are
too few and too old to be of much real
use against a European foe. The
British forces in India number about
$4,000 of all ranks. The infantry num-
Der So battalions, each of a nominal
strength of 1000 men. After providing
for the internal requirements of India
itself it is doubtful, he says whether
more than 10000 British troops would
be available for use across the from
tier The infantry are armed with the
Lee Metford rifle of a type which Is not
the best. 1t is an earlier description or
mark" of the arm which has been is

India number nine regiments. not half

regiments are still armed with the old
Martini carbine. A few months since.
when some of them were sent to South
Africa, it was found necessary to take
from them their old Martins, which
ought to have been replaced years be-
fore, and give them, from other regi-
ments, ,303-second carbines. The con-
dition of the horse and field artillery.
he says, is lamentable. Some of the
batteries are still using black powder,
and some of the elephant batteries are
still using old muzzle-ioaders. ONLY
one of the siege-trains is equipped with
breech-Ioading ordnance. The coast

forts he declares to be in an almost

launched twenty-three vessels with an
aggregate capacity of $4,000 tons last

it does not suffer in comparison with

through the Sault ste. Marie Canal in
1899 was 21,0oo,ooo TONS or about 1000,

The call for the Massachusetts Bryan
State convention will seem a little hifa-
lutin to some, but it is sound as to "the
paramount issue" 1t says: All voters

who now intend to vote for Bryan and
Stevenson and the principles for which
they stand, because they believe that
the principles laid down in the Declara-
ton of Independence that "all men are
created equal and are endowed by their
Creator with the inalienable rights of
life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness" and that governments derive
their Just powers from the consent of
the governed" are not glittering gener-
alities but are self-evident truths which
should be observed by our nation to-
day as in the past; and because they
believe that our forefathers were right
in opposing the injustice of taxation
without representation an abuse which
the flight of years has not rendered less
odious; and because they would remem-
Der and heed the warning of Washing
ton that the smiles of heaven cannot be
expected on any nation that disregards
the eternal rules of right, are requested
to send delegates to this convention.

At present, says an Ecuador CORE
spondent of the Catholic Standard and
Times, I'VE have the deplorable specta-
Gle of seeing almost all the Bishops in
exile, and the few who yet remain in
their own dioceses deprived of their
support because they are unable con-
scientious1y to swear fidelity to the
Constitution and to the law of Patron
alto imposed upon them by the present
government in defiance of the Roman
Pontiff. The reverend canons and par
ish priests repeat in their own lines
on a smaller scale the same unhappy
condition of affairs In the Cathedral
the solemn functions have been sus-
pended, and the seminaries have been
obliged to reduce the number Of their
students, to limit the course of studies
almost to the very elements of moral
and dogmatic theology and not seldom
the curates of the small parishes find
themselves in abject misery The
writer says that the Free Masons are
responsible for this state of affairs.
