dition. So far as Calcutta is con-
cerned, the seeds being shipped are
linseed, rapeseed, poppyseed wheat
and peas, and of these 162,035 tons
were exported by sea from March
to July 26, against 63,7333 tons during
the corresponding period last year, or
an increase of 154 per cent. In the
matter of wheat exports, Karachi
takes premier place and has already
established a record. During June this
year not less than 285,00O tons were
brought to the port, a quantity far in
excess Of anything Karachi has ever
previously handled. The figures for
the corresponding months of 1907 and
1908 were 113,000 and $4,000 tons re-
spectively. The July arrivals reached
100000 tons. But as the irrigation
schemes now in progress in the wheat
centers of India come into full work,
the shipments of wheat via karachi
will largely increase, and the question
has already arisen as to how the trade
is to be handled with certainty and
expedition. With irrigation India

Details have been received here of
the judgment delivered in the first of
the Gwalior seditions cases. 1t was last
April the police of that state arrested
between thirty and forty persons on
charge of fomenting disloyalty
against the British government. Valu-
able evidence of their plans was OBJ
tanned in the shape of letters and
photographs, and after close investi-
cation it was clearly established the
ringleaders were men from Bengal and
the Mahratta country, two groups be-
ing at work in Gwalior city semi
independently of each other. The
prisoners were duly brought to trial
and after three months proceedings
four men have been sentenced to seven
years imprisonment, one to six, one
to three years, ten to two years and
eleven to one year. OF the remainder
six have received sentence of three
months Imprisonment, four have been
acquitted and two pardoned. This ex-
emplary punishment should deter dan
gerous seditionists from venturing in
to native states under the impression
that they run less chance of detection
there than in British territory.

HARD PUT TO n.

The constitution amendists of Ala
hama are trying to offset the ili-effect

they are advocating by telling the
people that the federal constitution
could be invoked as protection

The fact that amendment leaders

that no such safeguard exists as they
are trying to deceive the voters with.
Then. as The Times intimates. see
what hole they put themselves in.
and what discreditable position
they place the state in. In effect.
they say to the people of Alabama:
.You needn't fear any ill-effects from
the bad laws your Legislature enact

will protect you in your rights
That is Just about what some of theil
misleading arguments amount to. and
when they fear that they will not be
able to ailay the apprehensions of the
voters by this sort of mis-statement
they tell them that the amendment
doesn't mean what it says, and that
the laws already passed do not mean
all they say, and that II any one
violates certain provisions therein he

NOW WE'LL HEAR THINGS.

The Kansas City Journal calls to
mind the pictures in the books of the
old days showing the strange and
weird manner in which the African
women arranged their hair-or wool.
They added all sorts of extraneous
articles and managed to build up a
head-gear that was fearful and won
derful to behold, In the estimation of
the civilized world.
But" adds The Journal. eff we
should hunt UP those old picture
books and look into them again we
would be struck by an odd sensation
of familiarity. Those fashions are
not at all extraordinary. The women
of today arrange their hair In much
the same way. How the overhanging
balcony at the back of the head ever

I is one of those delicious feminine
mysteries that BATTLE the crude mas
culine imagination. The present
mode of exaggerated coiffeur would
be ridiculous If we dared express It
that way. But as long as women
think that 1t is pretty and adds to
their attractiveness they will wear
their hair any way they DESIRE
right Of any man to say that female
employees shall fashion their locks to
SHIT his taste"
OF course that is all true, difficult
as we find II to understand why
women should weave all manner Of
strange things into their own beauti-

nal says. memories of the strange pic

were thus rugged out. but shall we
dare laugh at our own womanhood
when they apparently try to emulate
the styles of their heather sisters
Not If we are wise we won't, but will
let them use rats or any other old
things that may please them.
The Journal also says:

thanksgiving turkeys will be scarce
this year, and high In price, and some
of us thankful people will have to do
without them. That will be little
difficult, for Thanksgiving and turkey
go together like girls and boys. But
there Is no need TO be disgruntled at
our own fault. We have the fields, and
the sunshine and the grasshoppers, and
IL we do not have enough turkeys. tits
because we are trihing away our en-
ergies on less important things. Chick
ems, ducks, tenderloins will be scarcer,
too, and prices higher.
But the spirit OF Thanksgiving is

Thanksgiving. There are boiled beef
and cabbage chine of swine and tur-

thankful who has heart in him as
big as walnut.
But where are the turkeys? Is the
glory of this life dropping behind? Are
the farms losing their grip? Are the
farmers wives so absorbed In Paris
