LOOKS AHEAD.
Senator Elkins Predicts Realign-
ment of Parties in Next Campaign.
BUSINESS ISSUES TO POINT,
Southern Vote Likely 10 Show Decided
Friendiness Toward Republican Policies
While the Northern States May
Show Some Detection.

Washington, ID. G. July 10.-Sena-
tor Elkins, of West Virginia, believes
that in the next presidential campaign
there Will be realignment of parties
on business issues and the Renubli-
cans will make perceptible gains in
the south and sustain considerable
loss in the north. There are few men
in the country better equipped to dis
practical business standpoint than
the senior senator from West Vir-
ginia. The views here given were
expressed in casual conversation
and not formal interview.
Referring to President Mckinley :
recent announcement and the booms
now under way, he said it was idle
to speculate upon nomination which
is not to be made for three years to
come If selection had to be made
tomorrow or next week, there would
be less difficulty in venturing guess.
The names of several senators who
have presidential aspirations were
mentioned, but Senator Elkins shook
his head doubtfully and remarked
that while he entertained the highest
admiration for all of these gentlemen
and believed that any one of them
would make an acceptable presidential
candidate, he had grave doubts as to
whether the country would look to
the senate to furnish President Nc
Kinley's successor.

HOUSE MAY PRODUCE CANDI
DATE.

The house, he said, with great
frankness, was better hatchery for
presidential candidates. than the sem
ate. 1t was not unlikely that some
leader might spring up in the house
before the next convention meets, de-
liver speech which would make a
great impression upon the country
and which might lead to his nomina-
ton for the presidency. He was not
prepared to point ont presidential
possibility III the present membership
Of the House, but he justified his
opinion by asserting that one could
never tell three years in advance what
was going to happen in politics.
Changes and transformation were
going on all the time and in this pro-
gressivo age new leaders and new is
sues were constantly forcing them
selves to the front.
Senator Elkins lauG hingly suggested
that when IA man gets into the Senate
he might as well shake hands and say
goodbye to his presidential aspiration S.
There was apparently II disposition
on the part of the people ofthe contry
to say TO senator Now you are AS
high as You ought to go. Stay here
if Won can. There was time when
the vice presidency was almost GER
tain road TO the presidential chair.
That custom had passed away and the
present indications do not point to an
early revival of promotion along that
line. There was also time when the
American mission to Great Britain
was regarded as a desirable training
station for a presidential candidate,
but that factor had also become obso-
lete.
Garfield was elected to the presiden-
cy before he took his seat in the sen
ate, and Harrison did not reach the
presidency until after ne had been de-
feated for reelection to the senate.
81 remember WE'LL, z" concluded the
senator, talking with Harrison af
ter his defeat for the senate. He was
expressing considerable disapoint-
ment at the result and was complain
ing that his efforts in behalf of the
people were not appreciated. slap
ped him ON the shoulder familiarly
and told him that he should not take
such a gloomy view of the situation,
and added that the first thing he
knew the people would make him
President of the United States. This
NAV have been an off hand guess or
au inspiration, but it was afterward
verified.

FAM|NES IN INDIA
REV. w. e. HOPKINS TELLS OF

Returned Missionary Says Prices in
Famine Times Are Raised Be-
yOnd Means of Lower
Classes.

"The Hindoo, while claiming to have
A religion that is just as good or better
than the Christian religion, will not feed
his neighbor, even when by SO doing he
will save him from starvation" said
Rev w. E. Hopkins, of Secunderabad,
Ocean, India, in a lecture at the Wood
land Baptist church last evening. The
lecture was given to explain a series of
stereopticon views of India which Mr..
Hopkins was exhibiting. He has spent
the last eight years as a missionary in
that country and spoke from personal eX-
perience.
Among the views which were exhibited
were several pictures Of groups of people
In the famine-stricken districts. These
people were shown as actually starving
to death Their bones were plainly visi-
BILE, and some of them We're so weak
that they were unable to stand up. Mr..
Hopkins says that when there is fail
ure of crops, and famine comes upon the
land. the Hindoo merchants raise the
price of all kinds of goods until some
times they are eight or ten times as high
as they are ordinarily Then if the man
who is starving with his family comes
to get some food and has not the
money with which to pay for it, he is
turned away to starve to death. 1t is
only when the robber bands step in and
compel the hard-hearted Hindoo to dl-
vide his store with those who otherwise

suade papa that perhaps his diet had
something to do with his i'll feelings, he
used to laugh good naturally and say,
why girls, I've been used to eating ana

trained that way, no, fear some change
has taken place in my body and I shall
never be well again.
We often suggested that he leave of
coffee and tobacco, but he urged that
they did not hurt him and were a COM

way for about 10 days until papa seemed
brighter and complained less of his head
That's it1 sister exclaimed, and from
that day she served Postum alone with

Postum to give it a prime, crisp flavor,
it is easy enough, just allow it to con-

the time boiling commences. not from the

Well the dear old soul seemed day by
day to take on new lie, he began to stay
at the Office later and was full of fun
when he came home in the evening.
The proof is plain enough that, morning

had been feeding our dear old governor
with coffee that is really strong liquid

NICE LEGAL POINT
POLITICIANS INTERESTED IN CUES
TION CONCERNING PRI-
MARY LAW
TO ASK ATTORNEY GENERAL
Law Appears to Prevent Man From
Voting If He Changes His
Politics Between
Elections.

The attorney general will shortly &c
called upon to settle a neat little legal
puzzle which is of considerable import
ance to many people. The new primary
election law contains point THAT is caus-
ing the politicians some little figuring,
although it is not an entirely new one,
inasmuch as it has always been in the
law governing primary elections
The law states that the voter after
registering, is to receive "a ballot of the
political party whose Candidates
he generally supported at the last gen.
eral election, and with which party he
proposes to affiliate at the next election"
etc.
Now the question naturally arises.
what about the man who has eXperi-
enced a change Of heart politically since
the last election, and sees a new light
in the political horizon?' If he stood on
the street corners and shouted for Ivan
SAINT, reciprocity and state issues in
the last campaign is he debarred from
participation in the Democratic primaries
at the coming election? The law seems
to provide that the voter at the primary
must not only intend to vote the ticket
of the party for whose ticket he asks,
but he must also have voted it at the last
general election.
1t is not to be supposed that an ad-
verse ruling on this proposition would
disfranchise the major part of the popu-
lation, for in all probability there will be
butsfew cases at each election where this
point would be raised. But distinguished
politicians have attested the truth that
very few votes sometimes change the
complexion of history. 1t has been DEM
onstrated in actual experience. Then
again, it will be only in exceptional cases
that man would be challenged for at
tempting to change his politics at the
eleventh hour, But there would be some
cases where challenge would be made,
and the politicians are wondering what
the legal Interpretation of the law will
be. A decision will undoubtedly be asked
so that the matter may be cleared up be-
fore another political battle is pulled off.

would die of want and privation that
their pleas are heard and their needs
supplied. This, he said, is the way those
act who claim that their religion Is SUI
perior to Christianity.
Mr.. Hopkins said that the greatest need
that confronted India was more room
for preserving the water of the rains so
that 1t might be used in irrigation. lie
showed several views of the means that
are now used for storing water, but said
they were inadequate for the needs of
the country. There is room enough to
store a supply that will last for one year,
but it frequently happens that there Is
need for a three years supply. When
room is provided there will be no more
famines in India unless the drought Is of
longer duration than has ever been the
case before.
One picture that was striking was
view of several thousand people who
were congregated at the holy pool to In
tercede with the god that rules the wind
and waters for a supply of rain. These
people were ordered to come here by the
priests to make an offering to the god
that their troubles might leave them. In
the picture the pool was filled with peo-
pie and about ten times as many We're
standing on the shore, being unable to
find room in the water. They first gave
their offering in the temples and then
went to the water. When the priest
sounded the gong in the temple they
cried to their god to relieve their dis
tress. But those who were unable to get
in the water were not to expect to receive
any benefits for travelling SO far and for
making their offerings Many gave all
that they had, and in the vain attempt
to get into the pool many were smothered
and trampled to death In the crowd.
Mr.. Hopkins spoke for the benefit of
missions. He is spending year in this
country, recruiting his health and labor
ing in the home field for the cause of
missions. He will return to the foreign
field next year.
