The answer is simple: all Europe and every civilized nation of the earth is en. joying a great era of industnal activity, called prosperity ; it is world wide, What does that indicate?

In the meantime the accounts of the ravages of the famine and pestilence among the 40,000,000 afflicted in India increase in their horrors. Thus it may be said that the British government is currently ex. pending enough money in killing people in Africa, for the sake of crushing their liberty and nationality, to feed twenty millions of its starving subjects in India, where, with all outside aid possible un. der the war spirit at home, less than 6,000,000 are being cared for, Joer war up to cost I seem to be working over time,"’ Bar'' that was bis literary “treat.” all | {can was a | Republican does not have to have con- | | victions, pecause under his de. | BITS OF BRYAN BREVITY.
