UNREST OF PEOPLE IN BRITISH
INDIA.

1t is an admitted fact that the
Rule Of Great Britain in. India would
have ended long ago were it not
for the numerous divisions Of the
people of that country into different
castles. Until the people of India
are able to abolish these foolish
castles they probably deserve a for.
eign yoke. But the educated natives
of India are liberty loving people and
sooner or later they will prove their
right to self government.
The Hindu student who murdered
one of the chief officers connected
with the English government in In
dia has made public statement,
which is replete with patriotism and
love of country. The following is an
extract from his public statement:
81 admit that the other day at
tempted to shed English blood as a
humble revenge for the inhuman hant
ings and deportations of patriotic In
dian youths.
In this attempt 1 have consulted
none but my own conscience, 1 have
conspired with none but my own d,l-
ty.
81 believe that nation held
down by foreign bayonets is in a
perpetual state of war. Since oper
battle is rendered impossible to q
disarmed race, attacked by sur
prise; since guns were denied to me
drew my pistol and fired.
AS Hindu feel that wrong tc
1ay country is an insult to God. Hell
cause is the cause of Shri Krishma
Poor in wealth and intellect a son
like myself has nothing else to offei
the mother but his own blood, and
SO / have sacrificed the same on her
altar.
The only lesson required in India
at present is to learn how to dis
and the only way to teach it is by
dying ourselves; therefore die ano
glory in my martyrdom. &
This war will continue between In
dia and England SO long as the Hin.
dee and English races last df this
Present unnatural relation does mo-
cease).
My only prayer to God is that !
may be reborn of the same mother
and may re-die in the same sacred
cause till the cause is successful ano
she stands free for the good Of hui.

HIGH PRICES AND POLITICS

The Democrats of Massachusetts.
says the Telegraph Herald have seiz
ed upon the high cost of living as
campaign issue against the republi;
cans. This is the issue to which
democrats generally should confine
their arguments, related as it is tc
the tariff.
Using the advertising columns OF
the newspapers to reach the people,
the party is publishing statistics OF
which this is sample:
In 1899 beans cost you z cents a
quart. Now they are Is.
Then you could go into the grocery
and buy barrel of flour for $3.50.
Now it costs only $7.25.
Roast beef cost you then IA 2-3
cents. How now, Mr. Voter? Just
Is cents. You got the best rump cut
then for % cents. Try it now. Moth
ing doing. Thirty-five cents, please.
Corned beef, for the man whose
piece de resistance was corned beef
and cabbage has almost doubled from
to 16 cents. Veal forequarters cost
you in the good old days" ust s
cents, now Just DOUBLE that.
Veal hindquarters were 10, now the
are 20 cents; outlets then %, can
now be had for SO cents, the price of
venison a decade since.
Fresh pork has jumped from 10 to
16; salt pork from to Is; smoked
hams from 13 to 20; corned shoulder
hams from 9 to IA; sausages from II
to Is; lard from to 49, Truly, cake
is for the classes.
The argument that prices have ad
vanced the world over does not dis.
pose of the Massachusetts argument
For while the average advance abroat
is II per cent, here it is 35 per cent,
or twice as much. The foreign ad
vance is attributable to the increase
in the supply of gold, and an equa
part of it is similarly to be account
ed for here. But the balance, OF
eighteen per cent. and more is attri
butable to the tariff and the trusts.

lnced as a result of overstudy at
the Teachers college at Cedar Falls,
where she was pursuing a course Of
study and upon the advice of those
N charge of that institution came
home about two weeks ago for a
rest. 1t is thought that she was
.aboring under the hallucination that
she must return to her school work
and started west on the railroad
rack on foot. As soon as the mem
.bers of the family noticed that she
had left the house they started in
search of her. Her mother saw her
IN the railroad track and ran to
intercept her but was unable to
each her before the sad tragedy
occurred.

l.er of Mrs. Della Champlin and was

She graduated from the Manchester
high school in the class OF 1909. She
vas an Industrious and conscientious
student. Her ambition was to be a
;eacher of German and 1t was her
zeal in preparing herself for this
work that undermined her health.

oathy of the community in the loss
If her daughter.

Ants In Battle.

The pugnacity Of ants leads them
to amuse themselves during long in
tervals Of peace by sham battles.
They rise upon their back feet,
wrestle, seize each other by the jaws
or legs, mount on each others backs,
roll over and over and engage in
other antics. Neighboring commun-
tiles Of ants are prone to engage in
wars which continue through weeks
and months, and usually end with the
humiliation of the weaker community.
