INDIAN INFAMIES.

ANOTHER DURBAR. King-George V., it is-announced, is going to India in, September, to hold at Delhi a durbar in honor of his accession that will eclipse the celebrated durbar of" 1903 in honour of his father's accession. There is every probability that in, the month of September 100,000 person© will die of the plague in India. They a,ro dying now at the rate of 20,000 a week, and the plague deaths always increaise as the cooler weather comes on. The plague is a preventible disease. AH the deaths from it are unnecessary. It has been raging in India for 14 years by the acquiescence of the Government of which King Ge&rge t is the sovereign head. The money that will be spent on the Delhi durbar and because of it would exterminate the plaguo in India. '

Ii view of these facts it is no wonder that all loyal Englishmen rejoice over the King's visit. It seems so reasonable.—Charles Edward llussell.
