RA1LRoApING IN CHINA.
wanton Destruction by Soldiers and the
PeoDle.


People.
WASHINGTON, September 3d-The De-
partment of State has received from the
United States Legation at Pekin, China, a
report relative to the recent heavy floods.
The report says the floods were the most
serious ever known in an area of 3 600
miles, and population of several millions
is affected by them. Many people were
drowned and tens of thousands are living
on charity. One result OF the floods may
have far-reaching consequences. Near Lu-
tai which is a point on the railroad from
Rong Kio to Pong.shan, the railway en-
bankment was destroyed by the people for
miles. 1t was alleged that this embank-
ment was damaged by water and flooded
the country. 1t is supposed that the Gen
eral in command at Lutai either instigated
or connived at these proceedings, in which
his soldiers largely took part. A very seri-
GUS feature of the case is the stupidness OF
the Viceroy. He has done nothing to pre-
vent these lawless proceedings.
The Tong Shaw coll.ery is stopped, 5000
men are OUT of employment, and operations
on the railroad suspended.
This destruction was wanton and I'M
necessary. All the proceedings indicate
anti-railroad excitement, which may result
in posiponing indefinitely any further rail-
road enterprises in China.

A DEMOCRATIC DIVISION.

The split in the Democratic party in San
Francisco has eliminated in an independ-
ent, or rather, protesting Convention Of
Democrats. That body is now engaged in
making nominations upon the basis OF un-
equivocal opposition to the local leader
snip of the party in that city. 1t is gen.
orally understood that Democratic division
is healed just before election day, when
the ''unterri6ed" vote the regular and
straight ticket. But in the present in
stance it appears improbable that there
will be any such closing of the breaches.
The character of the men engaged in the
work of the Convention, the evident sin
certify of that body and the aggressive tone
of the platform adopted by it, give war
rant for the belief that in San Francisco
the Democracy will be a split party until
the sun goes down on election day, and
possibly for long time thereafter.
There is one declaration of these pro-
testing Democrats that is in accord with
the best thought of the day, regardless Of
party utilization; that is:
1--WE insist that the conduct of municipal af
fairs is business and should be transacted on
business principles"
This is but another way of saying that
party politics and municipal government
should be divorced, a proposition that must
be made reality before the cities of Amer
lea will be economically and well governed,
and their affairs administered for the best
interests Of the people.

the country. 1t is founded in ancient
traditions, and is as firmly imbedded in
the system as the religion itself. To
eradicate it will require the extirpation OF
all the systems of religion known in In
dia, and the substitution of wholly differ
ent conceptions relating to time and
eternity, to the relations between God and
man, and in fact every theological idea
which has entered the mind of the people
of that country. When the entire the
illogical structure of India has been torn
down, and reconstructed upon wholly
different metaphysical and theological
foundation, the new structure, conforming
to the new canons of thought, may present
a system from which the conditions of
child widowhood will be wholly absent.

THE State Department approves the
action of the American Minister to Guate-
mala in the Barrundia affair and declares
that he not only acted wisely, but that his
letter to Captain Pitts was strictly within
the line of duty under the text and spirit
of international law. There are, however,
few jabbering and shallow newspaper in
ternational lawyers, the New York Herald
possessing the best specimen, who have
rushed into printed condemnation of the
Minister and hot demands for his recall.
These unthinking writers do not pause to
consider what would be the effect of the
establishment of the doctrine for which
they contend. Under it every foreign
vessel entering the harbor of New York or
San Francisco would be a safe haven and
refuge for every fugitive from justice who
could gain their decks. Every foreign
plank afoat in an American port would
become bit of foreign territory over
which the local law could not be extended
to the capture of fleeing criminals. 1t will
now be in order for those papers which
have been so quick to side with Barrundia
and to demand the disgracing of an Amer
lean Minister, to assail the Department of
State, the jurists and statesmen o: the day
for venturing to disagree with such wise
acres as the editorial writers of the New
York Herald, for instance.
