Lopeoe, Sima. April 8th, 1897. My Dear Abnerpaen,—I have often thought of writing to you to let yeu know from myself how much we all have ap- preciated the sympathy and generosity of Canada. We liave been taking stock of your position on ; assivg the grand total of a crore of rupee*, and tuough our gratetul thanks are due to friends all over the world, still, eutside of Great Britain, Canada stands first in the aid which has been sent us. Perhaps you will pardon me if, as a (Canadian born, I mingle a little pride with my gratitude. I have no doubt that we owe much to your own kindness, forI know how a calamity like ours would appeal to you; but from papers I have seen it seems clear that the movemeut in our favor has been a popular one, in every sense of the word, and that canoot fail to enhance the value of the gift. i think I am entirely justified in saying that co far as Government is concerned we are fully prepared for all present poesibili- ties. Indeed, in many districts the worst strain ie probably over. They have hada fair spring crop, and by the end of next month they will be busy preparing for the summer crop. These agricultural opera- tions at once relieve the situation; for, as { heard it put the otber day, what we have had to deal with bas been more of a Jabor fam‘ne than a food famine. The small proprietors and occupiers of | the land have, generally speaking, been able te subsist, though Lard pressed by high prices but they have been unable to employ or feed their laborers, and it has been for this class that in most cases we have had to provide relief works, Except in the districts which have sutiered most severely, e.g, from the failure of more than oue crop, there seems to be no appre- hension that a good monsoen will not re- store matters to pretty much their normal condition. But one of the chief advan- taves of the large charitable fund that has bea raised will be that we shall be able to put the poorer cultivators, whose credit is exhausted, into a favorable season by pro- yiding plough cattle, seed and other ne-es- saries of that sort. There mas atalk at one time of our having to import grain from America; but as yet the necessity has not arisen. There was 4 great rice crop in Burmah, and it has been very useful; but though we have watched very closely we have not ae yet detected any sign of a general failure of food supplies. I have to-day a letter from Samdhurs?,in which he gives e reassur— ing account in this respect of he worst districts inthe Bombay Presideuvy. If there wasto be another failure of the monsoon over anything |: ke the same area we should have avery different estate of thing, and we should certainly have Jo take from you and every body eise all that could be spared, but in the meantime there is no reason to think that anything so dreadful is impending. I am inflicting rather a long letter upon you; but I thought you might like to know a little of the view I take of the situation. I don’t know how you get any news of In- dian affairs—I suppose through London— and many of the accounts which appear are, to say the least, not distinguished for accuracy or impartiality. I think, how- sver, tnatall are now beginning to recognize what I have known for months, that the officers on the spot have been working throughout with a devotion and self sacri- fice that could not be succeeded.
