THE FAMINE In INDIA.-The sta

THE FAMINE In INDIA.-The state
department has made public report
from U. S. Consul Fee, at Bombay
which presents startling figures as to
the extent of the famine in India. Mr.
Fee says that Notwithstanding the
season of acute distress has hardly com
menced. the returns far exceed those
recorded during the initial stages of the
famine three years ago. 1t then affect
ed only 100000 persons; now the
figure is 8, 100000 and the daily ex'
penditure is placed at $4,000. The
famine area covers 100000 square
miles, with a population Of 1000, 900,
and there is a further area of about
145,OOO square miles, with popula'
ton of 81, 900, 900 in which more or less
distress prevails. The consul says that
the application for relief are overtax'
ing the state authorities and are increas
ing at au appalling rate. 10 conclusion
the consul expresses the fear that the
South African war will so divert the
attention and contributions of English,
men as to oblige India to fight the
plague and famine alone.

Up to the present time the bankrupt

the York referee for the reason that no

The Work of the Corn Planter.
A gentleman who recently pur-

the machine made on an old Negro
laborer who witnessed its operation :
"Fo de Lord, what de white folks
gwine ter git up next? Dah's one man
to open de row, dah's one man to drop
de corn, dah's one man to put in de
guano, dsh's one man to kiver it up,

must cultivate it. A spike-tooth Harrow
is the ideal wheat cultivator. Right now
is the time to do the work. If you have
no Harrow Of this style, we can sell you

antly IN lands which without irrigation
were desolate and valueless.

It has been claimed that the demo-
cratic party will be in a stronger position
this year than it was in 1896, because
while then silver was the only issue
now the party has a number of issues to
choose from, nay it can even take them
all, silver, antitrust, nti-expansion, and
with three issues a meet the demands
of every section. This would offer an at
t~ractive program were it not for the fact
that many of the men who favor one of
these issues are unalterably opposed to
the others and vice versa. For instance
Bourke Cochran is a gold..democrat who
sturdily fought silver in 1896; but he is
willing to allow silver in the platform if
the principal issue is anti-imperialism.
Senator Morgan on the other hand is a
silver democrat, but he is a strong ex-
pansionist, and he believes that any
other course than a declaration for ex-
pansion wouldb be the costliest of mistakes.
Henry Waterson is a gold democrat who
says free silver is done for; but he urges
expansion as democratic policy and as a
national necessity, Chairman Jones
and Senator Pettigrew are both silver
men and ardent anti expansioists. Sen
ator McLaurin sees in expansion a neces-
ity for the south. These men are lead
res and are not to be fooled into seeing
one issue used in one part Of the country
and another in a different section. 1t
appears that the work of organizing the
various discordant elements of the dem.
ocratic party into an harmonious unity
is herculean indeed, if not quite impos.
sible.
