BY MICHAEL WHITE

chiefly on plunder; but if he decided to re-
main he set up government in which all
life and property was his sole and undisputed
possession. The only rights the conquered
Hindus possessed were those he chose TO
grant. These consisted principally in pro-
viding the conqueror with splendid palaces,
jewels, gorgeously caparisoned elephants,
dancing girls, host of swashbuckling re-
tainers, and costly tombs. That is why the
American tourist in India gets surfeit OF
palaces, temples, and tombs.
As to the people, they seem to have come to
the conclusion pretty far back that it
was advisable for them never to display signs
of overnuch wealth. The plundering soldier
or tax gatherer was always at the door; SO
apparent poverty was the best shield of
defense. Besides, as hasty fight was recur-
rently necessary before the ravaglng armies
of Tatar, Afghan, and Mogul, gold and
jewels were the easiest forms of negotiable
security to transport or hide in the earth.
In this way Delhi was sacked and sacked
again, until John Ireland, the New York
traveller, visiting that city in the middle Of
the last century, thought Nadir Shah must
have swept it clean of treasures in his last
two-hundred- -rnillion-dollar raid. Delhi
looked to him a poverty-stricken place
Yet a century or so afterward, when the
British troops stormed it in the Mutiny the
Thomas Atkins of those days was pretty
soon seen bartering jewels for drinks and
playing quoits with gold anklets and bangles.
Since then Delhi has probably accumu-
lated another hoard of treasure; for the
peoples yearning in that respect seems to be
explained by their never having got over
their scare of the invader plundering and
squeezing them for ages, or the dread terror
of a plague taking its toll in millions Some
thing then unchanging in value to fly
with or bury would appear to be their sole
idea of security, and without doubt this is
best represented in gold and jewels.
So the Hindu goes on boarding, and our
bankers and bullion merchants naturally
take fright at the recent report that the
Indian government contemplates opening
a gold coinage mint; for, as the cable puts
it, she will then probably literally drain
the world of that metal.
