Raise The Price.

Many publishers have raised their
subscription rates from one dollar to
sl.5o, beginning with January /. This
raise has been made necessary by tho
Increased cost of living, and there is no
alternative left the publisher unless he
is willing to continue issuing a paper at
bare cost of or loss. The time has
passed when a paper can be protitably
published for one dollar year. and tho
glory of it is relegated far to the rear
when the monthly bills are brought or
sent in. A farmer used to bring from
four to six bushels of corn to town to
pay for years subscription to his home
paper at one dollar year; now he cun
bring little more than two bushels and
pay for n year at$l,50 Ham that used
to cost the editor 10 and IL cents a
pound now costs 20 to rs cents. Not
only that, the editors cost of publish
ing has nearly doubled so that he IL re-
ally four times worse off in some re-
spects than formerly. These arc tho
conditions which have gradually added
to the newspaper mans burden until it
can no longer be borne. Would any
sane farmer keep team working for
one dollar day and throw in his work
If it cost one dollar to feed the team?
We hardly think so, unless times were
harder than they are now.
Every fair minded reader knows that
these conditions have been brought a.
bout through no fault of the publishers.
and will concede him the right to prof
it on his labor the same as the merch-
ant on his goods or the farmer on his
crops. Western Publisher.

Jackson County.

On the new maps of Colorado publish
ed since New Years, Jackson county
appears as the latest addition to the
list. jackson county occupies the North
Park region, including the head waters
of the North Platte river, and was for
merly the western part of Larimer
county. There was abundant reason
for the creation of the new county,
but with all due respect to the demo-
Gratis that controlled the last general as.
sembly, why didn't they get name
without going back into ancient history
1t may be that there are democrats that
are still voting for Jackson for presi-
dent, but we do not believe there are
any of that kind in Colorado. and with
all the wealth of material in Colorado
it seems as though name might have
been chosen that is not common to more
than three fourths Of the states. Pat
terson county would look mighty good,
or if this was not agreeable to the dem
ocrats of that session, they might have
tried Hughes county. or Specr county.
Kennehan county would be quite apro-
pos, and Ben Lindsey county would
have historical significance that could
not be overlooked. However. jackson

KENIQG OF THE HINDUS-By Frank

Brahmans they are now raising the ban
as to@water on tap. This is one of the
things tending to modify caste.
Another Is the railways and tramways
AT first the Brahmas and others OF the
higher castles wanted cars of their own
They could ont get them, and now all
must travel together. The schools of
the government admit pupils of all castles
and the Brahman boys now sit In the
same rooms with the Sudras.
The Brahmans have also changed GER
certain caste rules as to drink. The stores
are full of new things from abroad, and
these are desired by all castles in COM
mon. 1t is allowable now to use patent
medicines and soda water without losing
ones soul. A man is not damned If he
buys ice made by foreigner, and he can
eat soda crackers without being polluted.
1t is the same with ginger ale and other
soft drinks.
1t is different as to the meats. The
flesh of the COW is sacred, and any Hindu
who would eat the liquid extWct of beef
would be damned, and a ham sandwich

that the fakirs. or religious devotees, have
a caste of their own, and that there are
more than 100000 in India. l see them

the flesh was tightly drawn, were fitted
under his armpits SO that he sat erect
with his knees actually under his arms.
His face and body were smeared with
ashes, and his great eyes alone showed
the soul behind.
A Horde of Dirty Fanatics
1 have seen many of these men during
and pride themselves on their unclean-
ness Their methods of torture are le-
gion have seen some who have sat or
stood until their bodies have stiffened,
and they could hardly move IL they
would Some hold their arms erect until
the nails grow into the flesh. There are
fakirs at Benares who never sit down
and others who lie on beds of spikes or
nails or upon masses of broken stones.
Some try to acquire merit by refusing
to sleep, and others by eaing all sorts of
vile foods. Such men carry about human
skulls as drinking cups.
Among these religious fraDds are those
who claim they can remain buried UNDER
ground for a time withopt dying. Others
are able to walk through fire. and at
every holy fair you may see half a dozen
or SO undergoing the ordeal Of the five
fires The faskir is almost naked, with
four fires about him, just far enough
away to preue nt the flesh from sizzling.
He is out in the open. and the fifth fire
is the tropical sun, which blazes down
on his head.
You have all learned of the Juggernaut
car That Is a fraud that was carried on
at one place in India. Among other tor
ments are the thrusting of pieces of iron
through the flesh, and especially Through
the tongue, and another Is the swinging
to and fro of steel hooks fastened into
the mustles of the arms and breast.
Such things are not common here But
they may be seen now and then; and the
people believe that those who practice
them acquire merit. and thereby attain
a higher position in the transmigrations
to come.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1910-08-07

base their belief upon one God alone, of
whom they say there Is no second. They
say that God made the heavens and the
earth, and that he permeates all crea-
ton. He is in every man, and In every
thing. He is a part of you and me, and
therefore your acts and my acts are His
acts. We cannot sin If God Is doing
the acting, and at the best our future is
fated. When we were babies the life we
would lead was written upon our fore
heads, and our joys and misfortunes were
settled before we saw light.
The Hindus believe that God manifests
himself In many incarnations. Any great
philosopher, priest or king may repre-
sent Him, and they have taken Buddha
as one of His manifestations. They say
that God as q whole Is so great that He
is beyond human conception, and there
fore they worship Him in His various
incarnations. In this sense everything
may be worshiped as a part of God,
and 1t should be SO, according as it Is
pure or good or as 1t Is terrible and to
be feared. The lower classes of the Hin
dus pray to animals and to the dead.
They pray to the spirits of those who
have done we'll in life, and also to the
supreme gods of Hinduism or the in
carnations of the deity as represented
in their sacred books.
In the latter sense the Hindus have
three great manifestations of the Deity.
These are Brahma. Vishnu and SILVA
I find representations of them scattered
throughout the temples, and have seen
tens of thousands worshiping them in
one form or another. The god, Brahma,
is represented as an idol with four heads
and four arms. He was the great creator
who made mankind and all living. His
wife is often represented beside him. Her
name is Sarasvati. She is a gorgeous
lady who rides upon a peacock and is
clad only in jewels. She is the especial
patron of music and speech. All liars
pray to her. and she wipes off their
sins.
Vishnu, the second great god, is wor-
SHIPPED here at Benares in numerous tenn
pies. He is known as the preserver and
he came down to earth to deliver man
from demons, snakes and wicked men,

lation on the part of the mother does not
seem to matter
The code of Manue declares that a Su-
dra woman alone can be the wife of a
Suda; In other words, dishwasher must
marry a dishwasher and a slopcarrier a
slopcarrler. 1t is the same with the
Vaisyas and the Kshatryas.
Some Cast Prejudices
The laws also provide that only persons
OF the same caste may eat together, and
for a person of one caste to touch the
food of another deflles it. I stopped to-
day. before an itinerant sweetmeats ped
dler and began to finger some OF the
candies on his table. He grew angry and
told me to keep my hands off, as the Hin
dus would not buy anything foreigner
had touched. This Is especially so OF
the natives of the higher castles. In the
jails of India the cook is always Brah-
man, for otherwise the prisoners of the
lower castles would ont eat the food.
am told that prisoners have been fogged
and have starved to death rather than
eat victuals cooked by low caste man.
During my travels in the far east
have frequently been upon steamers with
Hindus of one grade or another. Those
of the higher castles carry their cooks
with them. They bring their own water
on board and never come to the general
tables When the Rajah of Jeypore went
to England not long ago he had full
retinue of servants amid his own kitchen,
which could be entered by none but his
own people.

at Be0ares met Hindu with beauti-
full brass bowl. He had just come up from
the Ganges and placed the bowl on

tt up, thinking to buy II. Thereupon the
man grew angry, and my guide said that
I had committed an objectionable sin.
He said the man could not use the
bowl until 1t had been heated red hot In
the fire and thus purified.
Effect of Western Innovation
The Hindus will not touch water which
has not been drawn by their own people,
and they must not eat food cooked in
waterssuppiied by different castles This
fact for a long time hindered the use of
the water works which the English have
introduced into some Of the cities, but by
a special dispensation granted by the
