The Voters Puzzle.
and the other feeling of anxiety openly

and the other feeling of anxiety openly
expressed by the mouth pieces OF the
Libersl party ct the autocratic attitude
which the emperor assumed in .eettling
the difficulty. His action was certainly
not more arbitrary tn an upon the occa-
sion OF the downfall OF Prince Bismarck
from power. but the German people
hardly expected to witness q repetition
OF that incident within so comparatively
short period.
The National Zeitung gives emphatic
expression to this misgiving and de-
clares the solidity OF the Prussian cab
met must be re-established If confidence
is to be restored,
1he Radical organs are even more
ontspoken. The Boersen Courier re-
minds its readers that two chancellors.
four imperial secretaries Of state and Is
Prussian ministers have been used up
in little more than six years.
The Grenzsboten says: "Clearly con-
fdence in the stability of the vital prin-
ciples OF the government has been weak
ened by recent events"
The newspaper quoted then calls
upon the German nation to make firm
rights.
The most striking utterance, how
ever, comes in the Zunkunft, which. in
an article printed today on the emper-
| or's autocratic tendency, makes a rather
! daring comparison between Emperor
William and Charles 1. OF England, who
was forever demanding explicit and
unceasing confidence OF his subjects,
with what results to himself are readily
recalled. The paper adds:
MATTERS have come to such q pass in
the German empire that the most
weighty decisions depend upon acci-
dents and the company the emperor
chooses to keep, and on the manner his
entourage represent things to him. The
citizens themselves. who preserve and
protect this German empire and main.
tain the army and the court, are ex.
pected to rest content, hold their
tongues and be always assured that the
well qualified authorities are eaie~
guarding their welfare. This is asking
too much"
Such outspoken remarks are rarely
ventured in the German public press,
and the Zunkunft is treading upon dam
gerous ground. 1t utterance, neverthe-
less, truly voices the growing feeling OF
mlsgivlng among large and liberal
minded section OF the German public,
however, and is more easily discerned in
the states outside OF Prussia. Indeed,
the emperor has been forced into q real.
lzation OF the dangers OF the present sit~
uation by remonatrances addressed to
him from Bavaria, Baden and Wurtem-
burg regarding Caprivi's dismissal and
the general instability of the govern
ment.
This is an important fact, because it
became known. coupled with the an.
nouncement that Csprivi's trip to South
Germany was not entirely Q private
affair, but takes the form of mission at
the request OF the emperor, with the OBJ.

ing terms OF peace, and it 10 therefore
very improbable that we will forfeit
this position by yielding now to China's
request to intervene.
NO INTERVENTION.
"Arbitrate we may. but intervene we
cannot" is the manner in which the
situation is summarized in official cir
cles here. If the Chinese government
desires the United States to present
peace proposals to japan this may be
done through Minister DENLY, but it is
felt here that the better way would be
for China to submit her proposals di-
rectly to Japan, when it would be en-
tirely within the bounds OF propriety
for the United States to express the
qualification it would feel as nation
friendly to both combatants. to see peace
restored on honorable terms.
CHINESE CAUGHT MAPPING.
An official of the stste department,
conversant with the Chinese attitude,
says:
''ChinG no longer concesis her inabil-
ity to prosecute war. She recognizes
that che WAS caught unprepared and
that 1t is the part of wisdom for her to
make the most OF a bad situation by
getting peace on the hest terms possible.
She does this with the expectation and
assurance that japan will come half
way. Japan began the war for the pur-
pose, as she said. of securing Corea's
com plete sovereignty. This China will
fully concede. 1t is also probable that
China will pay fair indemnity. This.
however. will be in cash and not in

THE JAPANESE VIEW.

THE JAPANESE VIEW.
Another department official present ed
the Japanese view of the present nego-
iations as follows:
Japan recognizes Chinese craft, and
che is not likely to be misled by any
empty offers of peace on terms which
seem to mean much and in truth mean
nothing. The sovereignty of Corea is
one of those empty propositions. and
China has been driven out of Corea and
has nothing to concede as to that coun-
try. Neither does Japan want any Chi
nese territory, not even the island OF
Formosa, which is in reality an exton-
sion of the Japanese group. What shs
will undoubtedly ask is cssh indem-
nifty sufficient to rscoup her for her war
expenditures. That and the prestige OF
Japanese arms and the humbling of
China will give the full fruits of vic

CHINA's ANXIETY TO ARBlTRATE.
From the beginning of hostilities the
Chinese have been anxious to have the
United States arbitrate the differences
between themselves and the Japanese
which led to the war, but OF course
there could be no arbitration except
upon the request of both parties, and
that was lacking. But after the battles
of Kiu Lien Chang on Osto Der 25th last,
when the Chinese suffered severe de-
feat at the hands OF the Japanese, who
crossed the Yalu river and were obliged
to retreat toward Moukden, they became
thoroughly alarmed and convinced that
something must be done to terminate
the war. They could not, however, go
humble their pride as to sue for peace
directly to Japan, but casting about for
some means of opening peace negotia
tions, they hit upon the treaty with the
United States OF 1848. The first article
of this treaty pledges the United States,
in case China is oppressively or un-
Justly treated by another power.
to use its good Offices to arrange
the difficulty. 1t is similar in scope to
the first article in our treaty with Corea,
which led Secretary Gresham at the
beginning of the trouble to write the
note to the United States minister at
Toxic relative to the Japanese occupa.
ton of Corea. which has excited so much
comment. Encouraged by the attitude
OF the United States at that time, the
Chinese government appealed to United
States Minister DENLY at Pekin to cause
his government to intervene, and Mr..
DENLY transmitted the application to
Washington, where it was laid before
the president, who has had it under
consideration for a week or more. As
our representations in the case OF the
occupation of Corea had little effect,
there is NO reason to suppose different
result would follow an attempt to use
good Offices in favor OF China.
AMERICAN NEUTRALITY.
As already indicated. our government
was indisposed to cooperate directly
with the European nations in any effort
to coerce either party to the war. and for
this very reason we were an independ-
ent intermediary in bringing about
peace. Both Chins and Japan were
assured that we we're free from any sus.
picion OF desire to secure accessions OF
territory in Asia which hung over the
great European powers, and their con-
tidence in our firmnsss and impartiality
was strikingly manifested by the sslec-
tion OF the United States by both ma
tions to care for their sub jects in the
others territory. The United States 10

The Pension Tax,

The democratic administration that fayors
free wool has taxed the Union soldiers and
their widows S25, 900 900, in cutting off and
reducing pensions during the year in the
name of " Fraud" and " Rigid EcCalon1v."
1t has laid this tax more heavily IN the
West than in Vermont. In the stata of
Ohio, in six months ending September /,
1893, this administration suspended 200
pensions with the view of helping theh
candidate in the state election in Novem-
ber, 1893. 1t soon discovered, however, that
the maltreatment Of the Union soldier in
Ohio was helping the other side. 1t then
restored 1923 Of these alleged fraudulent
pensions to the roll as quickly as the
names could be written. A deputy COM
missioner OF pensions was hurried to the
National Military Home at Dayton, Ohio,
to explain matters to the soldiers there,
" that their pensions had been suspended
by the rascally republican clerks(?) in the
pension office" The list of reinstated PEN
sions was published before election day.
But all the frantic haste to recoup the loss
Of prestige among the Buckeyes was un-
availing. Thousands of good reliable demo-
cratic veterans, determining to vote as they
shot, gave, on the first Tuesday of Novem-
ber, parting kick to the twin humbugs-
