FRANK G.. CARPENTERS LETTER.


/ men, 1t is provided that no European
shall reside at any Of their courts with
out the sanction of thel British govern
ment. and, in case of outrageous mis-
rule, the British can Dome in and die
tate what shall be done. Some OF the
native states pay a tribute to the Brit
ish and others, l believe have allow
anceS of various kinds TO help them sup
port their rank.
'rhe Monkey OF the Stick"
Indeed, the rulers of most of these
native states are little more than the
monkey on'the stick, which is held by
John Bull. He pulls the string and
they dance as he wishes. If they will
not obey he merely changes the mon
key. Said one of the highest officials
of the Indian army to me the other
day:
The power of the viceroy of India
over the rajahS Is beyond conception.
Nearly every one of the native rulers
has an army, and some Of them have
forces of well trained men fully equip
ped for active warfare. Nevertheless we
can depose them at will. When 1 first
came here We had a maharajah who
was making a disturbance. He would
not work with the government and
was always kicking over the traces.
One day the viceroy said to me: That
man is too much bother, l think I
shall depose him and put his son, a
boy Of ten. in his place. Then we can
rule as we please"
But said 1, in that case you will
need the army 10 support your order
viii you not

shall just send word to our resident
there to make the change and it will be
done
Indeed said 1; but the maharajah
has a large army and he may declare
war
Il think there will be no trouble
was the reply.
Well continued the general, L hap
state when these instructions from the
the durbar- and the rajah sat in state
in black clothes entered and handed
the gorgeous ruler the viceroy's orders
to step down and out. He read them
and was greatly surprised. But he
merely salaamed to the little British
resident, and walked off to prison,
while the boy took the throne in his
stead. 1 cannot tell You why it is, but
the power of our government here seems
supreme and the native rulers know
that it is useless for them to re-

The country ruled by the nizam is
more than twice as large as the state

Many of his subjects wear turbans. and
he has about him representatives from
all parts of the Mohammedan world.
As to jewels. his collection is said to
be worth 80 million dollars. He owns
the Nizam diamond. which is one of the
fine stones of it's kind. and in his realm
is Golconda, the diamond marketing
center of the past. He buys diamonds
occasionally and owns some of the best
stones which have come out of South
Africa. Not long ago he engaged TO
buy the imperial diamond at a cost OF
a million and a half dollars, and he
paid one-half this price. the rest to
be given at intervals during the next
few years. The British government OF
India however. objected. saying that
the nizam had no right to spend so
much money out Of the taxes collected
from his hard working subjects, and
that he could not afford TO buy things
OF that kind. They forbade him to pay
any more on the stone. At the same
time the diamond had come into the
nizam's possession. He refused to give

The Native States.

Few people realize the extent of the
territory still controlled by the Indian
rajahs. They govern about half of all
Hindustan- The native states are scat
tered all over India from Kashmir and
NepaI in the Himalayas TO Mysore and
others at the extreme southern end of
the country. Raiputana takes a great
slice out of the heart of the peninsula,
and Hyderabad, ruled by the Nizam, is
an immense state still further south.
Altogether there are six or seven hun
bred of these states. containing a pop
ulation OF more than sixtyeight mil
lions
These are a part of British India and
yet not of it. The native princes and
rapahs are supposed by the common
PEG to have absolute rule. but they
are all under the control of the British
and all have British advisers The
chiefs have no right 70 make war or
peace or to send ambassadors to each
other or to outside states. They are
permitted TO obtain a limited military
force, their troops altogether amount

PROPHETS OF EFFICIENCY
BY CHARLES FERGUSON.

There lives in Philadelphia re-
markable man named Taylor. who has
devoted himself for nearly a quarter
OF century TO the Improvement or
the technical processes of industrial
concerns.
He is worker Of wonders.
He can double the output OF loco
motive plant merely by rearranging
the machinery.
He has revolutionized the ancient
art OF bricklaying by teaching a gang
OF masons 10 move together like a
football team.
He can quadruple the days stint OF
showing them the right way to pick
mp pig-iron and load it on car.
In scores OF factories that have
submitted themselves TO Mr.. Taylor's
wizardry there are. all told, today
about fifty thousand workmen who
are twice as effective as they former
ly were-and like their jobs twice as
we'll.
For Mr.. Taylor is no speeder-up Of
sweated toilers. He is the furthest
possible from that.
His yoke is easy. He is an artist in
tie designing of facile processes, a
pioneering explorer OF the lines Of
least resistance.
And back of all his special inven-
tions and discoveries there is a valid
philosophy of human nature.
He knows how 10 mobilize the crea-
tive forces that lie hidden in average
men
The factories in which he has min
istered have undergone profound
moral revolution
His inmost secret is the abolition OF
all arbitrary power-the elimination OF
the boss"

subject TO the mere spleen of an over
seer-or tAe prejudice of an EN-
ployer.
These shops are little Democratic
states. They are governed not by
men. but by laws-the intrinsic good
ways Of doing things.
Thus, if We give Mr.. Taylor and his
kind chance. IL is possible they may
make over the whole vast workshop
that We call the United States-trans-
lating IL into a real Democracy.
In Cleveland there is man named
erry-high-placed in the electrical
trust-who understands what Taylor
understands.
Mr. Terry is re-creating a great bus
mess by taking a thousand employees
into his confidence. and asking their
allegiance, not to his own authority
but 70 the laws OF electricity and me-
chanics.
Mr.. Brandeis, OF Boston, is another
disciple OF this new faith.
He proves that the general cost
Of rolllngsto repairs on American
railroads is something like twice as
much as il ought TO be.
For example. IL has been proved by
long course of experiments that loco
motives can be kept in order at an
average repair-cost of four cents a
mile-while The actual cost, under ex'
listing conditions Of general inefficien-
cy. is from eight to twelve cents.
What is the last moral OF Mr. Tay-
lor's lesson? What is the bottom rea'
son why great American industrial
concerns have fallen into these slip
shop ways?
The answer is monopoly.
Monopoly is against nature and in
suits all the natural laws.
irresponsible monopoly at the tor
Of a business produces irresponsible
workmanship at the bottom.
