Boston Dispatch, 10th.
Tho Rev. Rockwell Clancy,
a missionary at Allahabad,
who is visiting his brotherin
Medford, said last night:
"The condition OF the fam
ine-stricken India today is
something perfectly awful to
contemplate. | cannot tell
anything about the number
dying, but when / left Bonn
bay last February there were
go, 900. 900 people suffering
from famine and over 3d.
100000 were in dire distress,
and of these but 5000, 900
were receiving government
aid.
ut is not the cities but the
country places which are
stricken and when you know
that it is mostly among the
agricultural classes and that
80 per cent. OF the popula.
ton of India is made up of
tillers of the soil, you may be
able to grasp in some slight
manner the extent OF the sui
fering at the present time.
"When the famine set in
the people began to sell ey-
erything they had that they
might get a little grain for
food. They took the doors
from their houses and sold
them: sold their furniture and
farming utensils, and then
when they had no longer any
thug to sell they sold their
children. The boys. don't
sell well, and the traffic is
lal gely in girls.
81 saw girls in one town
just before lcame away being
sold for 80 cents apiece. They
were bought up by Moham-
medans. But they wont buy
the boys. so when the parents
can no longer support their
children they abandon them
and henceforth they must
get ON as best they can.
These cast-offs congregate a.
bout the doors of the grain
merchants shops, and the
only way the proprietorscan
get rid of them is to throw
out handfuls OF grain, scat
tering it wide. The children
pick and pick all day and at
night perhaps are awarded
by having collected a single
handful.

NEGRO IN THE BACKGROUND.

In Henderson, a city offs, 900
inhabitants at the Republic
canprimary held on Saturday
not a single white man was
present and all the delegates
selected we're negroes
In Warren at the county
convention the attendance
was nearly one hundred and
not a single white man was
pressnt. The negroes, how
ever, in response TO orders,
elected two white men as
delegates to the state con-
vention.
In Lpnoir county of ninety
presentseventy were negroes.

In Guiilord the negroes O.
beyed orders and not one was

nate
In Jones county three.
fourths of the delegates were
negroes, but the negroes were
told to take Il back seat and
white men were elected to the
State convention.
These are q few sample Re
publican conventions. The
revenue officers. who absO
lutely run the Republican
party in North Carolina
have had their doOdles al
work for more than a month
travelling about the STATE
telling the negroes that they
must take a back seat in th'
State convention this yearil
order to defeat the amend
ment. "If you are proInlnen
in the convention this year,
is the argument used. "yol
will never get a chance tt
vote again. Take "a bacl
seat this year. and after W
get in we will let you sit a
the first table" That arg1
ment has had it's effect il
most.counties, and the negr'
is cOnsenting to disfranchise
