In today's issue of The Daily ap-
pears the second article of a series
of 12 written by Dr. N. S. Hardikar,
grad., about India.
The British came to India as traders
with a balance in one hand and a
sword in the other, and there they
spread their political net in the shape
of trade:
They first weakened the different
European nationalities who were
fighting among themselves for the pos-
session of India, and then turned their
attention to the Indian people. The
Indians knew very little of the Eng-
lish policy which divided the natives
into several different classes, and
which was fatal to the very life of the
country.
The policy, "Divide and Rule," which
is widely known to historians, was
brought into operation. Naturally it
had its effect. India was obliged to
succumb to the rule of the British.
There are .many princes and rajahs
who are supposed to rule their own
states, but they are not independent.
They have an English authority over
them who is called a "political agent."
Their independence is so limited that
they require sanction of the political
agents in the smallest matters.
Under the English the country is
divided into 13 parts which are quite
irregular in boundary and administra-
tion. These parts are called presi-
dencies or providences and together
make up British India.
British India is located to the south
of Asia and is bounded upon three
sides by water. To the north stands
the great mountain wall which sep-
parates our country from China. The
Himalayas are impenetrable and hence
India is safe from any foreign power

Self- Government
in that direction. But the east, south,
and west can be easily attacked.
The great rivers Ganges, Brahmap-
utra, Sindhu, and others connect the
land with the sea. Hence river navi-
gation is carried a long distance in-
land. Large cities, such as Calcutta,
Benares, and Delhi, located on the
banks of these rivers, are numerous.
In many provinces canals have been
constructed by the present rulers as
well as by the ancients. Irrigation
is made easy in this way, but the soil
is very barren in the northeast and
in some parts of the south. Rainfall
is heavy, however, and India lacks no
water for cultivation.
The climate is temperate and al-
though it varies with the different sea-
sons, the country produces many kinds
of fruits and grains. Some of the
fruit grown in India, for example the
mango, guava, jumbul, and phanas,
are not seen in this country.
India has a population of 315 mil-
lions, one-fifth of the whole human
race. These millions belong to dif-
ferent nationalities. The largest por-
tion of the population belongs to the
Hindus, 240 millions; next come the
Mohammadans with 60 millions, while
the Sikhs, Buddhists, Christians, and
others compose about 15 millions. The
majority of the people belong to the
Caucasian race, as do the majority of
Europeans and Americans.
It would be well to remember that
India is about 9,000 miles distant from
Chicago, and that it takes from four
to five weeks via Japan and from three
to four weeks via Suez to reach our
country. Today it takes at least eight
weeks either way. The voyage varies
in price with the different class tick-
ets and steamship companies, though
the average is near $300 one way.

The honor committee of the College
of Engineering met with the commit-
tee on discipline of that college to
talk over the results of the honor sys-
tem in the last examinations and in
the examinations of the future.
,The honor committee will meet at
4:30 o'clock today in order to finish
up all business which was left over
from its regular meeting last week.
Three representatives of the Cutler-
Hammer Manufacturing company of
Milwaukee, Wis., have planned to meet
the members of this year's graduating
engineering class in room 246 of the
engineering building at 10 o'clock to-
morrow morning, for the purpose of
securing 10 men from the University
capable of filling positions with the
firm following commencement in June.
Preference will be given to electrical,

Tickets will be held for senior engi-
neers until Wednesday, Feb. 28, after
which date they will go on sale to
the campus in general. They may be
obtained from the committee or at the
Technic desk.
Another elective course in electrical
engineering will be offered to senior
electricals, beginning next fall. It
will be known as course 9, and will
give thekmen an opportunity to do
experimentation on their own initia-
tive. The student will choose some
well known phenomenon, and make an
exhaustive study of it under instruc-
tion. The purpose of the course is
to give the student a wider field of
work, and more opportunity to fol-
low his own inclinations.
At the meeting of the students en-
rolled last semester in geology lE,
which was called recently for the pur-

moned to appear before the honor
committee tomorrow morning.
The fresh engineer class meeting,
which is usually held every Wednes-
day morning at 11 o'clock, has been
cancelled this week, owing to the fact
that room 348 of the engineering
building is being used this week for
the short course in highway engineer-
ing.

Over one billion gallons of water,
1,304,525,521 to be exact, were pumped
into the mains of the city last year.
This is an average of about 3,500,000
gallons a day and 150 gallons an in-
dividual. The heaviest pumping was
done during July and August.
Additional accommodations for dele-
gates who are expected to attend the
students' volunteer conference, to be
held here starting Friday, are needed,
according to Annetta Wood, '17, in
charge of publicity and registration.
Plans had been made for 200, but it is
now expected that 250 or 300 will at-
tend.
Ann Arbor may start a municipal
nursery, the plan being to grow trees
for use on the boulevards and parks
and for other city purposes. Not only
would the city save money as a result,
but the value of the Steere farm prop-
erty, on which it is proposed to start
the forest, would be greatly enhanced.
The city clerk has been instructed
to advertise for bids for paving South
University avenue from Washtenaw to
State street, - and in all probability

the council will soon authorize the
construction of the pavements as well.
Fearing another shortage of coal,
the council is investigating the in-
cinerating plant of Austin, Texas,
which willnot only provide for a sup-
ply of the commodity, but also solve
the question of disposing of the city's
garbage. Machinery will reduce the
refuse to a high-grade fuel which may
be readily utilized in any furnace, and
will sell for about $6.00 a ton. Oakoal,
as it is called, burns like oak, giving
off about the same number of heat
units.
The Student society of the Unitarian
church will give a dance in the church
parlors next Friday evening. Further
arrangements will be announced later.
The election conrmittee of the city
council met at 3 o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon to discuss the recent Supreme
Court decision that there need not be
any primaries for government offices
if there is only one contestant for
nominations. At present this is
the case in Ann Arbor. There is only
one contestant for the nominations of
the city offices. The city and county
primaries were to be held Wednesday,
March 7, but owing to the supreme
Court ruling, it is probably that only
county primaries will be held on that
date.
The $30,000 campaign of the city Y,.
M. C. A. will be inaugurated next
Friday evening with a business men's
dinner at the association on Fourth
avenue. Mr. H. W. Newkirk will offi-
ciate as toastmaster. The speakers
will be Warden B. P. Disque, of Jack-
son, formerly of the Philippine
Islands; Mr. L. E. Latta, manager of
the Briscoe motor company at Jack-
son, and Mr. E. L. Mogee, of Indian-
apolis, secretary of the Indiana state
organization of the Y. M. C. A. At-
tendance at the dinner is open to all
men but reservations will only be
made for the first 250 applications.
The active work of the campaign will
begin next Monday morning and con-
tinue for five days.
