INDIA IS NOT READY FOR
POPULAR GOVERNMENT
DR. BUCK SPENT FORTY YEAR8
IN THAT COUNTRY.
PEIPLE CAN NIT BE TRUSTED
Sixty Different Languages Are Spoken
in Many States and Illiteracy
Prevails.
Rev. P. M. Buck, who has been a
missionary In India for oveT forty
years, yesterday addressed convocation
on "Present Day Life In India." Rev.
Buck 1b at present visiting in Lincoln
with his son, Professor Buck of the
rhetoric department. The speaker
told Borne very Interesting facts con
cerning India, having become, in his
long residence there, well acquainted
with conditions.
The Indians are related to the white
race, being a branch of the Ayrlans.
from whom we are descended. They
have many good qualities, which are
not often credited them, and which are
seen only by knowing them. India
contains one-fifth of the world's popu
lation, and is divided Into many states,
there being sixty different languages
spoken. Dr. Buck said that it waB the
opinion of all the missionaries that
British rulo was a good thing for In
dia. Under the conditions It is not
possible to rule India better than Eng
land has done It.
Illiterate People.
Speaking of the unrest in India, the
speaker said that the move toward
popular government was started by a
fewfwho hoped to gain by It. The peo
ple are, not ready for home rule.
Ninety per cent are Illiterate and a
majority of, the others have only a
small education. The natives can not
bo trusted. In the courts English mag
istrates are always sought, as the na
tives are too free to bribes so that
even their friends can not trust them.
This la tho reason -why there are no
corporations or large business in In
dia. There Is plenty of money "stored
up there, but the ethics of the people
are too low to take the risk.
England has made great advance in
its Indian government. It gives na
tives a places In Us councils and their
desires are usually heeded. They have
done wonders In preventing famine.
The Indians are continually fighting
among themselves, and the British
have done much good In preventing
this. Dr. Buck thought that through
love and trust some day India would
be a nation df entirely different people
than at present.
DET RINGER PLEASES.
Swedish Comedy Pleases Audience
Immensely.
"Det Ringer," the Swedish comedy,
which was given by the Tegner soci
ety last Saturday, proved to bo a very
successful venture. The participants
had learned their parts so well that
there was not a hitch from the begin
ning to the end of the performance.
The play was given with a snap that
Impressed the audience.
The title of the comedy suggests the
ringing of the telephone. There are,
In fact, three telephones on the stage,
and the humor of the situation Is to bo
found largely In tho fear shown by
Agathon Sommerberg, an old man
from the country unused to the din of
city life, when tho telephone, often
most unexpectedly, rings. Sommer
berg was very ably represented by H.
P. Magnusson. Tea Prancke, a young
widow Interested In all new move
ments In Stockholm and In the world
at large, was tho role played by Mrs.
Lillian Wlckland. Julia Witt, a young
lady of sot ways, was played with
much animation by Martina Swenson.
Oscar Egert, tho consul, who makes
love to Julia Witt, found a good repre
sentative in Leonard Fleet wood, Mlna,
Tea Pranck's saucy maid, was tho part
assigned to Ellen Samuolson.
Before the performance was given,
the business meeting was held. Grace
Munson sang a Swedish folk song.
