THE INDIAN FAMINE.
Q. II. Trovor, who wiih n dis
trict rolief commissioner in a
former season of similar distress,
(jives a groat deal of iiiformatiou
upon the fainiuo in India, through
an article occupying tun pau,es of
McMillan's Magazine for April.
Ho quotes tho Secretary ot State
aa saying last November "that tho
area affected comprised a popula
tion of about thirty-six million
inhabitants, a very largo propor
tion of which would bo able to
help tliomsolvoa; aud in addition
tlioro wero threatened districts
contaiuiug' about eighteen million
inhabitants, and a further area,
partly affected and partly threat
enod in tho Native Htutes
comprising another eighteen mil
lions." From the same authority
a quotation is ruado, showing tho
extraordinary advantages tho pres
ent administration has ovur nil
preceding onos for coping with
tho emergency. Thoso consist in
tho availability of importations of
grain from other countries, the
comparative perfection of the ro
liuf system attained from expori
euco,aud,ouo of tho greatest factors
of all, tho magnitude of protective
works iiccompliHhed within a re
cent period. Specific information
on tho last point mentioned is
cited from a lecture by Sir
Charles Elliott, as follows:
It was estimated, ho said, thai
altogether out of a total cultivated
area of 180,000,000 ucros 29,0, 0,
000 acres wero now irrigated, and
so placed beyond the risks arising
from any ordinary drought. Thd
food raised in this area wassuflici
ont in times of famine to feed 120,.
000,000 peoplo, or half the ontiro
population of British India. With
regard to railways, hn states that
altogether 19,077 miles of railway
wero open in April, 1890, which
was an increase of 11,409 miles
beyond tho figures for 1H77. Tip)
expeudituro of tho Finance Ib-li-f
Fund sines its institution in 1881
hn exhibited as showing Its, 110,
000,000 spent on protective rail
ways; nearly Jts. 20,0110,000 on
canals; Its. 53,333,000 on reduc
tion of debt; and about Its, 3,333,
CU0 on famino reltef.
According to the present valuo
of tho rupee, tho amounts just
named would aggregate about
$57,000,000. Mr. Trovor -in the
course of his aiticlo describes the
system of conducting the relief
works, established in all the pro
vinces where need arises or is
throatouod. Labor of men and
women is raccoptcd on the works
without questions asked, and the
works are started before the people
have become incapacitated for toil
by actual want of food. To
criticism that has appeared as if
relief works hod been pre
maturely started in some cases,
thus involving extravagance ot
public expenditure, a series of
answers are forthcoming. The
works are valuable for protection
in the futuiu. It is better to err
on the safe side than commit the
blunder of delay which , in plu
vious famines caused the sacrifice
of millions of lives. If the people
are allowed to combat the dearth
of necessaries to tho last extre
mity of their resources, their
poverty aflor tlio t;i jhIh will pro
vent the paying of usual taxes and
thus tho treasury will suffer, And
so forth, The suggestion has been
heard thatlliogovenimeiit piovido
stores in granaries, from which to
sell grain whenever the price iJ
vances to three limes tlio ordinary,
and stop selling when it is brought
be)ow that ruto. TIiIh (h mot with

The object of its fajnino
expeudituro is only, or mainly, to
preserve life; private cuarity can
mako Ufa s little more bearable to
thoso who have lost thair all, "It

officials, of men and women work
ing among thoso who know and
trust them, that wo can hope to
discover where comforts beyond
tho subsistence ration become a
necessity, where domestic privacy
conceals misery and starvation,
where wo can do homoihiiig to
make up to an orphan for the loss
of a father's care, where wo can
preserve to an honest man tho in
dependence which he values near
ly as highly as his lift-." These
are Lord blgin's words, and they
show the purposes to which our
contributions will be applied and
how welcome they will be, "A

Another iuturesliug table of
school attendance is given today,
which should bo priwrvcl for
refeiouco with those given yeslor
day. It will be noticed that in
the eight years since 1888, while
pure Ilawuiians going to school
have increased by 100 frm KiH),
the part Hawalians have gained
1200, or neatly doubled the
number at which they stood in
1888. A uiiii icau, British and Ger
man children exhibit no extraordi
nary but yet fiipf initial increases.
Among Euioptau ruci-s the
I'ortuguoHo have made a prodi
glous stride, neatly trebling theii
numbers at school. As there lias
boon no largo Portuguese iuiuii
gratiou in these years, the increase
simply shows that nationality
as intelligently valuing tho privi
leges of education hero availuole,
It is a very gratifyio foc ii,
view of the largeness of the L'ui
tugucso element in the material
eligiblo for national citizenship.
The Chiueso attendance at
school shows (he greatest Julio
of increase of any nationality,
next to the Japanese but owed
in litem in number more than
double, being somewhat mou
thau sixfold. As under any nir
cuinstauucs this lace will be
