and only the married women and chill
dren. with the aged and infirm. re-
main behind. In the late spring and
summer and autumn the men and boys
and girls are abroad. They return aft
er harvest time and spend the winter
months in rambling around from one
hamlet to another. They have no work
to do. The men take back about $50
each: the girls from $40 to $50. Be-
fore the winter has passed every PEN
ny is spent. They are obliged to bor-
row their passage money next season
from the local shopkeeper. To their
credit it must be said that they remit
regularly to the families left behind
Now it must be apparent to everybody
that this system is all wrong. The
people are starving In the best of
seasons they merely manage to live:
when the crops fail all the members
of the fanny are face to face with
hunger. Given sufficient tracts of
land they could raise enough crops to
maintain themselves in comfort, and
the winter portion Of the year could
be employed in drainage and other
useful work. AS it is they simply
waste three months Of the year.
There is another matter, too, which
is perhaps the saddest feature of this
emigration. The young, unsophisti-
Gated people go abroad form doubtful
company, and are thus the means of
introducing all the evil traits and none
OF the good oAes amongst whom they
have been moving for nine months in
the year. As said before, and as Mr..
WSndham, M. p, himself admitted
when he was Chief Secretary, Tempo
rary relief is Of little benefit to the
people. 1t helps certain shopkeepers
first, and the cottier second. What is
needed is a redistribution of the bull
ock lands, from which the people were
once driven. One day strong states
man will deal with the matter in a.
hrm and. statesnlanlike manner. In
the meantime, and until some govern
ment sees it's duty clearly, and in see
ing it does it. We shall have these
times OF hunger and distress in the
congested districts. The lonely cry of
these people out there by the western
sea will come to us again and again
inslstently, pleadingly-one day it may
be menacingly=-to. remind us of our
sins of omission. .e

Indeed Holland has always been
friendly TO Venezuela and Castro's

Hollands attitude weak In the face
of the repeated insults endured for
Is or 80 years. In the last few years,
however the policy OF President Cas-

commercial interests, are worse than
Cromwells famous navigation act.

delegates pledged to Taft. will be

convention of Hawaii, to be held in
Honolulu on Monday. is also likely

Especial to The sentInel.l

Washington, April 11.-While the
Republicans held the limelight in
rational politics this week, by reason
of the state conventions in New York
and Massachusetts, the Democrats
will have their share of publicity
during the next seven days. The
birthday of Thomas Jefferson, which
falls on Monday. will likely be cele-
brated more generally than in recent
years and many important utter
ances may be expected. BY far the
most important of these celebrations
will be the banquet of the National
quarrel over the question as to
whether William Jennings Bryan
should be invited to speak at the
dinner threatened for n time to dis
rupt the club, but 1t is now likely
that the Nebraskan, If present, will
add to the oratory of the occasion.
The other speakers will be President
Woodrow Wilson of Princeton Uni
versity, Senator Owens of Oklahoma
and Senator Simmons of North Car
clina.
Two important Democratic State
conventions will be held Tuesday
those of New York and Delaware
The latter gathering will likely as
sume an Importance not warranted
by the Importance of the state in
lational politics, owing to the fact
that ii will mark the launching of a
boom for Judge George Gray for
president. For several months the
Delaware jurist has occasionally
been mentioned as the logical lead
er" of the Eastern Democracy in its
opposition to the candidacy of Will
liam ]. Bryan. and his Endorsement
by the convention of his home state
is expected TO result in crystallizing
sentiment in his favor among those
who desire an eastern candidate.
The New York Democratic state
convention will also meet on Tues
day, Carnegie Hall. New York, hav-
ing been selected as the scene of the
gathering. Sentiment among the
