SIR HENRY COTTON DISCUSSES
POLITICAL FUTURE OF INDIA
Sir Henry Cotton, who has spent almost all his life-
time in the service of England in the east, discussed
"The Political Future of India," in a liberal and
thoughtful article which he contributes to the July
number of the North American Keriew. According
to Sir Henry, the connection between India and Eng-
[ land* is a permanent one. India must always look to
^ England for guidance, assistance and protection. But,
f' through the spread of the English language through-
out the country, the varied peoples of Indian are at-
k taining a certain unity, and there is arising within
The justice and intent of this statute are evident; for
if few of this kind may bo acceptcd, the members of
our highest national legislative body would inevitably
find themselves possessing a personal financial interest
in matters upon which they were to legislate. In this
case the members of the jury found that Senator Mit
ighfll had received money (fS^OQO) in «>rd. r to expe-
dite th.- isauo of certkm land pa tenia by the interior
Department, and they regarded this as neither more
nor less than the sale of his influence with the govern-
ment, derived sololy from his office.
It is hoped that the conviction will lead to disclos-
ures of the fraudulent methods followed by public
land thieves. Both of Oregon's congressional repre-
sentatives in the lower house are under indictment
for offenses connected with land frauds, and there is
reason to believe that a deep-laid conspiracy has been
carried on-to n>b the public and that the conspirators
have utilised-party political machinery to escape de-
teotiaa.
