THE MASSACRE IN CHINA.

The massacre of the Belgians in China
was more atrocious, and more bloody
and wholesale slaughter of human beings
than any of which the Chinese have been
guilty before. The cutthroats were mer-
ciless and undiscriminating women and
children of all ages fell before their
bludgeons, and the two-edged knife did
its work alike upon the throats of babes
and the breasts of women and the aged.
Murder was prefaced, we are told, by in
dignities and tortures too horrible for re-
cital, and the brand added to the atrocity
of butchery by burning the property OF
the unhappy victims of Mongolian
hatred.
Yet this people boast of their ancient
record, their high civilization and their
general superiority to white foreign
DEVILS" They raise mountain hight OF
protest when in labor riots some of their
kind fall before the weapons of our peo-
pie, or for their vices are visited with ex-
pulsion by an infamed mob, despite the
efforts of the law authorities to protect
them.
If the claims Of China against the
United States for indemnity because of
the killing of Chinese in Wyoming had
any virtue whatever, what shall be the
claim of Belgium against the Imperial
Government of China, and will all the
wealth of the treasury of the empire suf-
fee? Shall not the civilized nations
stand together in this matter, and by
such procedure as viii be respected and
feared teach the Chinese that even ''for-
eign devils'' have rights the children OF
the sun must respect?
Of course, as we have on several occa-
sions pointed out, the massacre at Takou
is part of the scheme of the rebels to
embarrass the Imperial Government.
But this fact cannot excuse that Govern
ment for failure to protect foreigners re-
siding within treaty districts. 1t has
known for some months that these peo-
pie were helpless against an uprising of
the natives that was clearly forecast, but
it has taken no step to protect them or
to open way Of escape for them. There
is every reason to believe that the Tartar
Emperor could have shielded all foreign
ers in China under treaty guarantees had
ne the courage to have done so. The
truth probably is that he and his advisers
fear the rebels more than they do the
wrath of the nations; that they are
cowed to certain extent by the boldness
of the outburst of insurrection, and that
they will be careless of the appeals and
demands of foreign residents for adequate
protection until the rebellion is sup
pressed.

FAMINE TALES.

The story yesterday telegraphed of the
famine in Russia is too horrible for be-
lief. 1t cannot be that the situation is as
bad as reported. Exaggeration has GER
tainly had ready hand in the prepara-
ton of the story.
For instance, it is related that on the
issuance of the order to carriers forbid
ding the expectation of wheat, rye
and black oats, the railway companies
also stopped the movement of corn,
though but few miles away, in the
province of Odessa, men and women were
starving
The Gar issued his order for the very
purpose of preventing shortage of do
mestic supply of food to his people, Il
is, therefore, improbable that the Gov
ernmentI officials were so asinine as to
permit carriers to lock up from starving
multitudes staple of which there is
plenty The Russian official is neither a
fool nor necessarily knave, and he is
not more likely to stand coldly by and
see his neighbor die for want of bread
when there is plenty at hand, than would
an American.
1t may be, however. that the distribu-
ton of the 100000 rubles ordered by
the Emperor was ill-conducted; possibly
some Of the coin stuck to official fingers,
and probably the peasants who received
the aims were permitted to spend the
money for drink. We are told that this
was the case, and that the next morning
$1,000 men and women were found dead
upon the highways. But this excessive
mortality in a single night as the result
of the bungling serving out of the money
we are disposed to doubt.
The statement that distress has driven
many of the peasantry to brigandage is
altogether probable. There never was {
famine unaccompanied by violence

sions become resistless and murder for a
crust is not infrequent.
OF course as the winter increases in
severity distress among the poor must
augment, and hundreds of thousands
viii be found to be suffering intensely,
and possibly dying, simply for want of
nourishing food; but the infamed story
credited to diplomatic communication
which a sensational newspaper reporter
claims to have seen en- route to its desti-
nation, that there are 10000, 600 of people
in Russia literally dying Of hunger, can
not be true. Were that the real situation
in Russia, we apprehend that the Gar
would not hesitate to appeal to the ma
tions of the world for assistance.

PINUs ROYAL.

The sugar pine of California has been
given the position in botany ofthe ''mon-
arch of vegetation" 1t is the most beau
tiful, symmetrical and useful of all trees.
Lew Williams of Lumpkin's Mill. in
Butte County, in recent communication
says:
The largest sugar pine I have ever seen is
about four miles from this place. 1t is a stand
ing tree, thirteen feet in diameter, but the top
has been broken off many years ago at hight
OF about two hundred feet. 1t is still thrifty
and TO all appearances sound. This is the
largest sugar pine l have ever heard Of from
any reliable authority.
Mr.. Williams is forester and mount
aineer of wide experience, and we are
disposed to think he has found the
largest sugar pine in the State. If any
one knows OF tree of greater diameter
ana hight than the Butte County tree
mentioned by Mr.. Williams we shall be
pleased 10 receive a communication re-
lating to it from reliable authority. The

FLAWS kicked Sparkle to death in sa-
men were drunk. When Flaws was
taken into custody he was so drunk that
he could not walk without staggering,
and SO when Flaws is held for murder it
will be shown that he was beastly drunk
when he killed his companion. But he
had sober sense sufficient to escape from
the saloon by private entrance, known
to but few. The plea will, however, still
be made that Flaws was too drunk to
entertain the throught of malice or
criminal intent; that he could not have
contemplated murder, because his senses
were befuddied by drink; that he can not
be held accountable in lesser degree of
murder, for the quarrel was mutual that
at most the crime was manslaughter, but
that Flaws should not be held for even
LnaI, because Ine 1ellOW was LOO
drunk to know that he was killing his
companions; and that death was not due
to misadventure or criminal neglect. Yet
the law declares that drunkenness shall
not be pleaded to shield one from the
consequences of criminal act. But
what Of that? The lawyers and the courts,
aided by tender-hearted and quibbling
jurors, have over and over again set
drunken murderers free, and they will do
it again. Flaws will go abroad in few
months, fill up with liquor, and be in a
fit condition to kick another man to
death, and again be set free because of
'absence of intent" Is it not full time,
with the record of drunkard murders
daily so filled, to legislate in such ex-
plicit language that the devil cannot be
whipped about the stump, and to so
clearly state the will of the people that
there shall be no escape by sophistical or
other Interpretation of the law for men
who murder in drink?
