The Russian Famine.
Extent ok the Famijjf.. The
territory afflicted by the drouth com
prises thirteen provinces of European
Russia, where the famine is general.
In five other provinces the famine
pievails in part, one or two others
have suffered to some extent, but are
not included in official reports.
Area and Population Compared.
The first thirteen provinces in area
are one third greater than all Ger
many. They cover an area equal to
the States ol Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Massachusets, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Mary
land, Virginia, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia and Kentucky all
together. The population is about
equal, or 27,000,000. The five pro
vinces above-named, it included in
the comparison would equal a com
bined area of Indiana, Iowa, Michi
gan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois,
North and South Dakota, Nebraska,
Kansas and half of Ohio. The total
population of these last five provinces
is nearly double that of the eleven
states.
Character ok Son. and People.
This vast area is agricultural, and the
richest and ordinarily the most fruitful
part of Russia. The destitution is
not universal, ai there are those
whose accumulations have saved them
from want, and there are some
spots preserved from blight by irri
gation, where a cood harvest was
reaped, but at the best estimate the
proportion of suffering is enormoin.
An official estimate of the number of
those without food or means of sup
port who require aid is given as 14,
000,000 persons, and this is probably
below the true number.
For three years the crops have
fallen short of the average and the
deficiency of the past season left the
storehouses well-nigh empty, and with
the increased failure of this year it is
evident, and, Minister Smith adds,
positive, that unless adequate relief
can be supplied, the great present
destitution and suffering will grow
worse as the season continues. The
greater portion of the peasantry is not
improvident. The peasants make on
savings generally, but live wholly de
pendent upon yeaily crops, hence the
long continued and widespread
drought leaves them subject to out
side relief.
The Ravages ok Drouth. The
scarcity of provisions is not the only
misery of this people. The crops are
the foundation of their whole econo
mic structure. When their crops fail,
various evils follow. The Govern
ment loses revenue and the peasants
lack all the necessaries of life, fire
wood, tarming implements, subsis
tence of horses and cattle, all depend
upon this one resource the crops.
Taxes and rental continue, and it is as
difficult to get fuel as food , in some
sections.
Cold us well as hunger causes terrible
suffering. In some neighborhood'
large numb1 rs of persons huddle to
gether in some houses most conducive
to warmth. Barns have been torn
down and ihe boards used for fire
wood. Even thatched roofs are torn
off and the straw made to feed the
dying embers; clothing is given away
for bread; horses and cattle are sacri
ficed at a tithe of their value; fodder
is a. scarce as human food; and in
some cases horse flesh has been sac
rificed for sustenance. During the
winter there is no work, and frequently
fathers have left their wives and child
rcn to fight the battle of want alone,
because they could do nothing and
their absence would leave fewer
mouths to feed at home. The bread
which many are eating is composed of
wild arrock, potatoes, chaff and leaves,
and these terrible conditions inevit
ably produce disease. Within the
radius of one mile there are 120 cases
of typhus fever. Pestilence and hun
ger are daily gaining ground and deci
mating the people.
How to Render Aid Through
January, February and March the
roads are good, and all energies should
be directed to pouring provisions into
the suffering provinces. The river
are frozen. Two or three railroads
run into the famine-stricken region,
but there are no branches of these
railroads, and all provisions must be
carried for long distances on sleighs
The problem is, how to carry enough
during the mjtt three months, not
only for immediate use, but also to
tide over the period until the next
harvest shall be realized, which should
be in July. In the middle of March,
or first of April, the winter will break
up, the roads will become heavy or
difficult. The horses now available
for transportation will be needed for
spring farming.
Opportunity for Quick Action.
Time is a most important factor in the
work of relief. Every week is italf
One hundred and eighty million (180,
000,000) pounds of food are necessary.
Fifty car loads should arrive every
day in these stricken provinces, but
only eleven cat loads per day were
received Christmas week. The
emergency pending has not been
realized, unfortunately, but the spectre
of the famine has overshadowed every
thing, and every energy must be
strained to mitigate the calamity.
The Imperial Government lias, up to
the present time, appropriated 85,000,
000 roubles (142,500,000) from the
public treasury for the work of relief.
But the work must still go on, and the
expenditure must amount to a much
higher sum.
The Russian Emperor has personally
given enormously and all classes are
giving according to their means.
The loss to the government revenues
will be at least 300,000,000 roubles
(about $100,000000) or more, while a
conservative estimate of the loss to
Russia, in view of all consequence, is
placed at not less than 1,000,000,000
roubles ($500,000,000). Up to the
present there have been few contribu
tions from abroad, but the Govern
ment and the people of Russia arc
deeply sensible of the spontaneous
offers that have been made in various
parts of the Uuited States, and the
Emperor's Ministers, as well as others,
have manifested such to Minister
Smith in their expressions of apprecia
tion.
POSTPONE!
It is not much that the Democracy
of the East asks of the silver Demo
crats. It does not ask them to sur
render any principle, any conviction
or any advantage. It asks only that
they shall spare the Democracy a seri
ous injury at a most critical time, the
infliction of which can do nobody any
good.
No free coinage bill can become a
law this year. The certainty of a ve'.o
settles that. There is nothing to be
gained by the discussion of the ques
tion in Congress at this session, while
there is much to be lost. To thrust
this issue into the approaching Presi
dential canvass will convert a cam
paign of certainty into a campaign of
difficulty and diubt.
The Democracy asks the silver
Democrats in Congress to postpone
the discussion till next December, that
a Democratic President may be surely
elected ; to postpone it till December
for further light and leading; to post
pone it till December because no bill
passed now can under any conceivable
circumstances become law, to post
pone it tin uecemuer because the pas
sage of such a bill now can be nothing
but a firebrand in the party; because
it would make every Eastern State, in
cluding even Maryland and Delaware,
difficult and doubtful; because Mr.
Harrison is eager for a chance to
change the issue from a hopeless to a
hopeful one by vetoing such a bill and
posing as a champion of honest money ;
because s'ich a veto is almost the only
hope Harrison has of re election, the
only condition on which Democratic
defeat is possible.
There is nothing to be gained but
everything to be lost by forcing this
issue now. It can accomplish nothing
for free coinage, while it threatens Re
publican success, with all its train of
Force bill legislation, high tariffs, reck
less extravagance, centralization and
reaction.
Will Mr. Bland and his followers re
flect upon these things? Will they
heed the friendly warning and remon
strance which the Democratic response
to The WorhVi appeal gives with s )
earnest an emphasis? Will they r.ot
postpone the consideration of this vex
ing question till a time when its con
sideration shall not involve danger of
disaster to their party World.

almost death for alxmt three year. I had giv

righteous, I prayed that God would send
something that would prolong my life, and I
feel thankful to htm and you for the means
that was sent. May God spare your Ufa
many years yet that you may bear the great
good that your medicine is doing. On the
20th day ot August, 1801, Mr. Frunk Lawsou
your agent at Spencer persuaded me to take a

has brought out of ray bladder lime or gravol,
which I iiuvo saved In quantity tho size of a

SECOND LETTER.
Da An DocTon;-1 tako great pleasure In an
swering your Icttor which I received to-day.
You say "you would like to publish my tcsU
raonial in your Ouldo to Health for a while". I
kave no objections at all for I want to do all In
my power for afflicted humanity. I send by
this mall a lot of the Gravel ( alxmt one tin f of
what I saved ) that the Strump-lloot dissolved
and expelled from my bladder.
Two years ago hist Sept. I was taken with
pain almost all over me, ray l.cail and back, my
legs and feet becamo cold, would gut sick at ray
stomach and vomit often, sulTeringagi'catdeal
from chills and at times these were so severe
that t thought I would freezo to death. Tho
condition of my urine was not so bad through
the duy, but (luring tho ulght, nt times, I had
to get up every hour, and often every bulf hour.
Would urinate sometimes a pillion a night,
then It seemed my kidneys anil back would kill
mo. I had been troubled with constipation for
many years, but since using your Swam -Hoot
have I en belter than for a long time. The
ruedlcino hus helped my appetite wonderfully
nnd It seems as though t could uoteatettough.
I live about six miles in the country from
Closxrt. 1 was born and ruined here, mid havo
been a member of tuuM. E. Church for lorty
two years.
I'urdon mo for writing so much for I foel that
I would never pet through praising your great
remedy for Kidney, Llverund Bladder trouble.
Your true lrlcud,
Thoso who try Swamp-Boot bavo generally
drst employed the family physician, or used all
tho prescriptions within their reach without
benefit, As a last resort, when their case boa
become chronic, the sym ptoms com plicated and
their constitution run down, then they take
this remedy, and it is Just such cases and curea
as tho one atwve that have mude Swunip-Root
