Jhalakati Speech
FELLOW-COUNTRYMEN, delegates and people of Barisal and Bakarganj:–
I have first to express to you my personal gratitude for the kindly reception you have accorded to me. For a year I have been secluded from the fellowship and brotherly embrace of my fellow-countrymen. To me, therefore, the kindliness of your welcome must awake much keener feelings than would have been the case in other circumstances. Especially is it a cause of rejoicing to me to have that welcome in Barisal.

to me. The time fixed by the law for the breaking up of the meeting is also at hand, and I am afraid I have disappointed
one or two speakers by getting up so soon. But there is just one word that has to be spoken today.
Recently a speech has been made in the Bengal Legislative Council by the Lieutenant-Governor of this province, a speech
which I think is one of the most unfortunate and most amazing that have ever been delivered by a ruler in his position.
The occasion of the speech was a reference to certain murders that have recently been commi

The High Court Assassination
The startling assassination of Deputy Superintendent Shams-ul-Alam on Monday in the precincts of the High Court, publicly,

Mahomedan Representation
The question of separate representation for the Mahomedan community is one of those momentous issues raised in haste

The Indiscretions of Sir Edward
The speech of Sir Edward Baker in the Bengal Council last week was one of those indiscretions which statesmen occasionally

Lajpat Rai's Letters
The case of Parmanand, the Arya Samaj teacher, whom with a singular pusillanimity the D.A.V. College authorities have
dismissed before anything was proved against him, has been of more than usual interest because of the parade with which

A Task Unaccomplished
THERE is no question so vital to the future of this nation as the spirit in which we are to set about the regeneration of our national life. Either India is rising again to fulfil the function for which her past national life and development seem to have prepared her, a leader of thought and faith, a defender of
spiritual truth and experience destined to correct the conclusions of materialistic Science by the higher Science of which she has
the secret and in that power to influence the world's civilisation, or she is rising as a faithful pupil of Europe, a follower of methods and ideas borrowed from the West, a copyis
