We are not un alarmist. We are
not among those who magnify small
evils. We have no disposition to
turn the minds of the readers of the
Advocate to an imaginary wrong;
but we have looked into this matter ;
we have taken pains to inform our
selves and we are juite sure tho time

"There he is, there lie ie that

the wrong bald head."
Then, catching a glimpse of David

New York delegation, she said:
' Isn't it splendid to listen to all the

THE FAMINE IN INDIA CONTINUES TO GROW WORSE.
A late dispatch from Chicago says
our Missionaries in India are break
ing down under the strain of famine
relief work, and calls have licon
made for young men to take their
places. A niimher from Chicago
have volunteered to t". The Chi
cago India Famine Relief Commit

Occiii reiici s that are big are iron-
erall v of intt test to A met icans. Tbe
present f wnine in mil l is tho big
(jest in the world's history. It is a
tl.ingof millions - millionsof broken
homes, mil lions of scattered fatuilit s,
millions ol empty stomachs, millions
of living skeletons and millions ol
deaths. Says (iilsnti Willets, who
recently visited a place where they
wero burning the dead : "Never
shall I see a charnal house more
dreadful. In a great basin among
the hills lay heaps of ashes, the ashes
of one thousand human bodies. Here
was a crt uiatory, similar to thous
ands of others in the famine area,
where the burning of the bodies of
famine victims was conducted on a
mighty sc ilc.

met by an American missionary with
a 'tonga' i a two wheeled cart), and
driven to the pooihotise. Through
out that two mile ride through the
scorching heat and blinding clouds
- ii -.i.t
ol oust, tlie air was laden with me
horrible odor of the dead ! All tho
(icople tn.t in the hospital slept on
the ground, ate on the ground, lived
on the ground, in the dirt and dust.
Of the thousand inmates, half were
women and children. All the hor
rors of famine, all the misery and
suffering resulting from starvation
and neglect seemed to be cornvn
trated here. Tho sick and the well,
the weuk and the strong were hud
dled all together. They had come
there to die! Many could be saved,
but no note was taken of this. The
emaciated forms lying under the
big shed looked exactly like the pic
tures we see of famine sufferers.
Some of the poor creatures crawled
to our feet on hands and knees, and,
placing their heads in the dust, moan
ed out their supplications : "Oh, my
king, help us, and it will be well
with thee ; for we are very hungry.'
In the hospital wards the scenes
might have represented all the forms
of fitilleriiig depicted by l)anto in
the Inferno.' Mothers addrcsud
us, saying: Miive tie food, and the
gods will give theo many children. '
Kvery now and then U'hrers would
come with stretchers of matting and
catry oll'yet more lifeless bodies to
the burning place.
"The roll call of the (iovt-rntneiit

includes nearly iimummiii people.
During the last ten days the increase
has amounted to more than tid.OOO

while the land is dry, for people to
work and eat and sleep without
shelter, and with only few rags by
way of clothes. I!ut when the wet
season Im'oIuh, deal h will surely come
to many thousands of those who are
unsheltered and improperly clothed,

Tens of tliousaruls never reach either
relief works or poorh iiise. They
stray along tho highways, often
times till death mercifully overtakes
them. Among these wanderers are
thousands of children, who have
either strayed away from their par
ents or havo lost them by death.
"I have just returned from anoth
er and more extended tour of tho
famine districts, and with mine own
eyes have verified tho worst stories
I havo read or heard of tlie suffering
and distress of these starving people.
Children wander atxnit like chips
adrift on tho sea ; people die along
tho roadside through sheer lack of
food ; jackals and vultures feast upon
human flesh all of these things are
only too true. The land swarms
with multitudes of living skeletons.
1 have grown accustomed to tho
sight of stomachs hollowed out like
basins. The death rate is appalling,
despite tho fact that thetiovernment
is doing its Ix-st to save human life.
The money raised and sent by Kng
land is doing much good, but it is
not suflicient to cover tho wide
spread distress. The scenes I Iiave
witnessed are heart rending in the
extreme, and servo to emphasize the
fact that the help of tho American
pet plo is sorely needed. The money
sent here from the l iiited States
through the Christian Herald is do
ing an enormous amount of good.
"At the poorhotise, near Nadiad,
I found I,'JoO people, many of them
ill with cholera, dysentery and otli
er iiise tses common to a fatniue
poorhotise. The place was fearfully
malodorous, and tho patients in the
hospital were shamefully neglected.
Tho condition of things at another
pooihuiise, about .r" miles from Na
diad, was infinitely worse, the stench
from dead human bodies tilling the
air. ( ur very clothing was iiupteg
nated, and we carried the dreadful
odor away with us. Cholera pa
tients were wallowing in the mire.
Out of .'374 ptticuts admitted in lti
days, all but '' had died. Nothing
but dirt and rags was visible, while
the microlie-laden dust, the heat and
the filth rendered the place really
intolerable fur human habitation."
Iiundoii, July lo. In Iudia rain
either does not come at all or is in
sufficient, aud the ofticials fear an
indefinite prolongation of the fam
ine. India alone is unable to cope
with the tremendous obligation, and
the general opinion of the well-informed
here is that the woibt is pi
sibly yet to come.
Bryan Grows Strong er In the East.
Tlie American people like to have
their own way, hut they like still
better to see a man who is not afraid
of them. They can follow a leader,
however much they may disagree
from him, who, when he sees "a
plain duty," or lays dowu a "code
of morality," will hold to either
even against a world in arms. It is
certain, therefore, that at least some
of the influences which have swayed
the caucuses and conventions of the
democratic rairty will be felt in the
catnptign, and at tho polls.

HONORABLE POLITICS.
The groat national deba'o whiel
precedes a presidential election
ought to be a training school "t 'lo
corum and a true campaign of edu
cation. Tho people should emerge
from these "noble wars of reasons
with clearer and fairer grounds for
their political faith, with a finer and
broader public spirit, and with a pro
founder wnse of the value and dig
nity of free institutions.
iefore the heated term of poli.
tics seta in, it will not be amiss for
men of all parties to put themselves
under bonds to keep the inward
eitcc, to bethink themselves of the
respect that is duo to honest differ
ences of opinion, and at the same
time to mount guard against the
manifold forms of deception which
play a conscious or unconscious patt
in times ot general excitement.
Kven citizens of long experience are
not always exempt from a rush of
blood to the head.
Our modern freedom of speech
aud printing, like our swift tneth
oils of communication, are easily
H-rverted to other uses than the
spread of sound knowledge arid no
ble feeling. In tho main, the re
suits of popular agitation are doubt
less beneficent, and the incidental
disorders aro largely self corrective.
Yet, if we may ipiote two thirds of
Lincoln's quaint aphorism, "you
can fool all the people a part of the
time, and you can fool a part of the
people all the time."
It is safe to predict that the busi
ness of fooling aud leing fooled will
constitute an active branch of polit
ical industry daring tho next six
months ; and that there will be scv
era! new illustrations of the old
proverb that a "lie will travel tor
leagues while truth is putting on its
iHKdS."
Amid the rattle of popular noises,
contradictory evidence and plausi
ble argument, and tho heating of
party gongs, tho- vcter who thus
not care to lind himself "used" and
led blindfold will do well to keep
his wits about him, along with thtt
nameless equipment which is la-ttcr
than wits a lively atfinitv for the
common weal. Tho Youth's Com
panion.
THE SITUATION.
There is no doubt of the change
in conditions throughout tho State
in favor ot the amendment and the
Democratic ticket. One actually
feels it. And the threats of l!lck
burn, the incendiary teachings of
lititler, the assaults of Ilolton and
negroes upon Democratic registrar
have aroused the people from one
end of tlie State to the other. We
have only known tho good people
so aroused twice lie fore, in July of
lhitt, when Tennessee rag-a muilins
were brought in to intimidate the
iajople, and iu lV.'S wben the negro
ilanly perpetrated his infamous
slander upon the "tor white wo
men of the State, for which lie was
driven into exile. We all know
what the result was on both tlose
occasions. Now federal officials
with the aid of jietty tools acting as
I'nited States commissioners to the
disgrace of the government, are at
tempting to intimidate registrars
and force upon the registration
books ineligible negroes whose votes
aro wanted to offset the votes of hon
est white citizens. Without the
thousands of illegal negro votes
Ilolton and Abe Middleton and
their associates, 1'earsoii and JJutler,
know they have no chance of do
feating the holiest white men of the
