t} THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIMI ORDER, FRIDAY JANUARY 23, 1903. t^Tanp not the times. A ,. r oiit deal of sympathy ieema to «usted on the twentieth century ( „llege-hred youth.', who ore pitied be- riinpe 1110 wor *^ ,oem ® to ** ttve n0 wor * c , r the well-educated. Sever was there harbored a more er- , , m , 0 n* view of anything. Aa a matter (fuel there can be recalled no time in | ll0 world’, hi.tory when there haa „ greater demand for trained la- 1, , r whether it bo mental or manual. ! mlocd, education ia now looked upon „ practical kind of investment in nhieli higher returns are assured than h.-e to be derived from stocks and bonds. The situation is briofly^and clearly demonstrated by Judge Robert V Douglas in this wise: Take a man earning $15 a month, an ,l,-upitalize him lilte^iny other ban- enterprise at say |ix per cent, and noiild be worth $3,000. Deducting ene-thinl this amount for tfie average rlumces of. death, he would still lie „..ith $2,00* to himself. His value to his family would lie further lessened n,o cost of his iiersonal supiiort. Take auother earning $150 month, n ,„l capitalize him in the same manner. • i, would represent .capital of$20,000, u . tl tunes that of theother. Thisisnot IU cre financial conceit. It is practi- rally the rulo of damage* followed by tli,. courts in eases of death by wrong ful act, taking into consideration the IK,, evpectanoy of the deceased. It should be the rulo to be substantially followed in the education of every, child. If » pnroqL carf educate a son from a $15 hand to a $150 band, ho has started him with u handsome capital securely invested. • The difficulty is that all too fre- iiuentfy the college man who takes hts degree is not really educated at all. He has spent four years storing bis mind with useless knowledge, without know ing how to apply what he has learned to some practical aim. But the matp who knows what he wants to do and is determined to do it, the man who puts all his energy and ambition into fitting himself to do some one thing a little heller than any other person can per form that particular task, wilhdisQover when lie demands the living winch it is said the world owes every man, that the living will be a fur more luxurious otic if he has been really educated than if ho brought to his life task a mind unfilled with what it is desirable to k now, a hand nnskilled.in what it is de sired shall ho ilono. “It is alt nonsense to belittle u col lege education bocanke a few stupid men have failed to got out of n.collcgo training tlio host there is within it; for in this respect, as in all others, tho fault is with the man and not with these times so rich in glorious jios- sihilities for tho brave and deter mined.” This mouth witnesses the inaugura tion of a Democratic Governor in Kliodc Island and also in Nevada and Oregon. These are tlie only States outside of the South which have Dem ocratic Governors, except ’Montana, which elected a Democrat in 11)00 for a four-year term. The Democratic Gov ernors of Oregon and Rhode Island i may lie regarded as accident. Each of them is confronted by a Republics Legislature. The only Northern State having a Democratic Governor and a IViuocratie Legislature is Nevada. There is no Republican Governor in the South unless Delaware and West Vir ginia uce classed as Southern States. <>f the forty-five Governors, tjie Demo crats have eighteen and the Republi cans twenty-seven. Senator Mason, of Illinois, will be enrolled among the exes on March 4. Jt has been ovident for some time that the rotund'and genial William was out of the running, but he kept hope for his flatterer until, the Hopkins ma- •hino left him manfled beside tho track. k Now that the Northern and the Southern [Methodists are singing out "f tho same hymnal, it begins to look »s if tLe war were really over.

STARVING PEOPLE EATINGPINE BARK GrimKamine Stalks Abroad in Northern Sweden. THIRTY THOUSAND AFFECTED. Situation Threatening a Repetition of the Terrible Famine of 1867, When ..Thoueande bled of Starvation and Faver—Pathetic Appeala Are Made. London, Jan. 15.—Telegrams from Stockholm conflrm the distressing ac counts of famine in northern Sweden as given In'these dtepatches. About 30,000 people are affected by this fam-. tne. which extends from the sixty-first to the sixty-seventh degree north lati tude, and from the Oulf of Bothnia and the Russian border fai* Into the Interior. • The starving people are eating pine bark, which ia dried, ground to pow der. mixed with stewed Iceland moss and made into a kind of famine bread. . Scarcity of Fish. Coincident’with tho failure of the crop Is the extreme scarcity of fish. The fishermen return from their expe. dltlons empty-lianded. Even ptar migan. usually found In great num bers in the stricken district have ah most completely disappeared. It Is estimated that the expenditure of about $6,300,000 will be necessary to save the population from decimln atlon. Thus far about $300,000 has been subscribed , of which sum over $13,500 was sent by Swedes In the United States. This amount does nor Include the money necessary to save the breed of cattle, which alone can live through an Arctic winter, or sup ply seed for the spring sowings. The peasants are making pathetic sarrifl' cos to avert the extermination of the hardy Northern cattle. In previous times scarcity of good fodder was ob tainable by tnfxlng reindeer moss and aspes bark. . Now this is available and finely chopped twigs of birch willow and ash are substituted. The mixture Is bolled.nnd fed to the cat tie warm, but it Is found that the milk of cattle thus fed leadsj to ty phoid fever. ' i Disease May Increase. This and other diseases are certain to spread unless relief Is hastened. The situation threatens a repetition of tho terrible famine of 1867, when thousands died of starvation and ty phold fever. A special commissioner of the Swedish government, who has Just returned from the Bceno of dlS' tress, emphasizes the necessity for the adoption ql Immediate plans to abato tho distress. His report has caused a most painful Impression and will, It Is hoped, enhance the national efforts to provide remedial measures. Up to the present. 1.300 carloads, val ued at over $100,006. represent the to tal quantity of provisions and fodder shipped to the famjpe-strlrkcn area.
