THE HORROR IN INDIA.
Mai.i,qok, the English author, has ad
.vised the people of England to emigrate
when they have worked out their coal
unities, which, at the ra'e of production
oi the hint few years, will not take long.
' The duty on cjal, proposed by Michael
Uiiks-Reach, would in the end be very
iieneilciul to Great Britain, if it retard
oal mining for export.
Tim vice of cocainism is spreading
salaruniigly as the drug is becoming
cheaper. A one ounce package, which
Juss than five years ago cost about fG,
cau now bo purchased for 75 ceuts. One
Jesuit of this cheapening is that the cj--CAino
habit is becoming common
-among tramps and paupers as well as
l-butuiict)s i'iid professional men. In New
Oi'leiuH and other parts of the South and
West the drug is freely bought in five
font packages.
Capital is net an active principle of
-wealth, only an instrument in the hands
of labor. Capital cannot produce apart
i from lalnr. One might have all the gold
.jud silver in the world and yet ho would
. perish without labor. Suppose all the
workeis should die, what would become
of the capitalists with their hoarded
wealth. They would perish in sis
months. Suppose, on the oilier hand,
that all the capitalists were to die, the
workers would still flourish, because
- ithere would no one left to tleece them .
Appalling are the conditions in India
just'revealed by the new census. Many
of the Southern Indian provinces with
good crops have grown in numbers, but
the central states, which would normally
show an increase of 1,500,000, have lost
1,000,000-a total loss of 2,500,000. And
these figures are dwarfed by the harvest
of death in Oodeypur, where 45 per cent,
of the people have peridhed, and in Bho-
paul, whose population is less by 808,
000 than in 1891. Even Bombay is 50,000
less of a city than she was 10 years ag o
These results are not all ; they are not
even the worst that famine has left.
Weakened bodies, mourning mothers,
emaciated, ghastly "convalescents" who
will never again be well, slaughtered
buffalo that will plow no more, ruined
villages, weed-grown fieldsall theie
are due to the years of hunger and dis
ease that money would have made im
possible.

r uom all evidences it would appear
that the significance of American trade
expansion is the disorganized, or imper
fectly organized, condition of the Ameri
can workers. Such being the case, the
advantage of the American manufacturer
can only be maintained by a constant
effort on his part to keep down wages, to
combat the shorter workday, and in gen
eral to prevent the improvement of in
dustrial conditions. Such a policy, act
ing and reacting upon the workers of all
the nations concerned, as It necessarily
must, can have but one result, namely,
the utter demoralization of labor. It is
a distinctly retrogressive policy, the ul
timate result of which will tar outweigh
the superficial and mainly private ad
vantages of commercial supremacy.
That the question is of concern to all
classes may not be apparent at firtt
blush. But that it is a serious matter of
public policy is clearly shown by the fol
lowing excerpt from "A General Survey
of the Foreign Trade," recently issued
by the State Department :
"There is food for thought also in the
possible consequences to our European
trade of a rivalry on our part which may
be so crushing as to greatly impair the
purchasing power of those who are now
our best customers. If we permanently
cripple their chief industries, we deprive
them to a greater or less extent, of ' the
means of buying from us, and the con
sumption of our food supplies and our
raw materials, as well as of our finished
goods, may be greatly curtailed. The
solution of the problem may perhaps be
