a matter of Indifference to

THE IyEyITABLE END

Every development of affairs in
China leads plainly to the conclusion
that sooner or later the government
Of that empire must be administered,
more or less directly, under the con-
troll of the other great powers of the
world. The uprising against foreign
residents has not subsidized EVERY
report brings new tales of terror, and
there is more than a suspicion that
the government officials connive at
the acts of the Vegetarians, if they
are not actively a party to them.
All European residents beyond reach
of the foreign legations are in a state
of intense excitement and alarm, and
both British and Americans are call
ing upon their governments for pro-,
lection. There is no telling to whst
lengths the popular hatred of ALI
foreigners may run before this dis
turbance shall have been quelled. JFi
is the duty of the nations to look not
only to the present but to the future.
No doubt the Chinese government
knowing the consequences of a re-
fusal, will make any reparation that
is demanded of it. The present ont
break will be put down after a time
a certain number Of guilty parties
will be punished, and such money in
demnity as is demanded will be sent
to the families of the murdered mis-
sionaries. But this is not the end
The same thing will happen over and
over again until it's recurrence is
made impossible by the existence of
permanent control strong enough
to keep the populace in check.
The imperial authorities have
neither the requisite disposition nor
the power. The strong hand from
without must be felt directly by the

Baked BY A BLACK BULLSEYE
Five Shots Cause More Excite
ment Than Injury.

About 8 o'clock last evening on Fifth
street, between Minnesota and Robert,
Henry West, negro laborer, fired five
shots from a thirty-eight-caliber re-
volver at Louis Battle, another negro,
and broke two panes of glass. AL
though the shooting was done at close
range, the only man injured was a
disinterested saloonkeeper within No.
80, whose hand was cut by the flying
glass. West is employed on one of the
asphalt paving gangs, while Battle is
hanger on about racing and livery
stables. The two men have had some
dispute about a woman, which reused
Battle to a spirit of Corsican ven
geance. Two weeks ago he met West
and slashed the latter's white vest
with a cold, blue knife. He then re-
tired into obscurity with such prompt
ness that the authorities have missed
him sorely. Yesterday he secured a
shotgun and marched gaily Westward
But he was baffied again. West had
retired in turn, and could not be
found. When the latter caught sight
of his foe last evening, Battle was
displaying no weapons but West AT
once began shooting. The fifth shot
discharged, he started to run, and
Battle, drawing his knife, followed in
pursuit. Officer HenneSsey intercepted
the two gentle Corsicans at the corner
OF Fifth and Robert Streets

1t in their power at any time to put
a stop to the creation of new indebt-
edness by the simple process of de-
clining to buy bonds.
A large portion of the great mu-
nicipal debts that exist in this coun-
try has been created in defiance of
public opinion. A scheme would be
set on foot by interested parties to
engage the city in some enterprise
involving a large expenditure of
money, of which these promoters
would be Observation-Disclosures. Before the
people had knowledge of what was
in the wind, a. job would be set UP
to name delegates to the legisla-
tufe favorable ITO the PLAN AS city
representatives usually have a de-
clsive voice in local legislation, the
passage of an act authorizing a
bond issue for such purpose
through the legislature was thus as
Sured. If, now, the city authorities
were in the deal, the people were
helpless, unless the legislative act
provided for a popular vote on the
question before the bonds could be
issued. All that remained to be done
was for the proper officials to pre-
pare and sign the bonds, to receive
bids for them in toto, and to
Sell the whole Issue to any financial
concern that would buy them. Even
II they had to bear a high rate of
interest or be sold below par, the
bonds would carry face value and
any court would enforce the obliga-
ton.
1t is by this process that municipal
extravaganza has been fostered and
city debts have increased. It will no
longer avail, if the new system of
popular subscription shall become
the rule, as is now most probable.
A financial concern would purchase
any bond, no matter for what pur-
pose issued, by a solvent community,
regarding it solely as an investment
and considering only the profit to
be made. But the people will not
put their money into bonds issued in
aid OF some enterprise which has
not their approval. Probably they
VIII refuse to buy bonds for purposes
that they do approve, if they feel
that the bonded debt and the annual
interest charged has already reached
the danger limit The most far
reaching and perhaps the most valu-
able effect, therefore, of the new sys-
tenn VIII be to invest the people them
selves with a larger share of con-
troll in the administration of citv
| finances. This is as it ought to be.
Not only will we have a lower inter-
est rate, more money kept at home
and liVelier interest in the charac-
ter and conduct of public officials
when municipal bonds are held by
the citizens of the municipality. but
there will come into play a veto
power on improper expenditure and
| undue enlargement of a city's obi
cations, which will be the most eff
fectlve check possible upon extraya-
gance.

A CHECK ON ENTRAVAGANCE.

The phenomenal success Of the city
Of Philadelphia in placing a loan of
$1,200,000 by popular subscription has
set an example which will undoubt-
eddy be followed by every ether city
of good credit in the country. This
loan bears 8 per cent interest, and
the bankers of the city refused to so
much as attempt to handle it. It was
as a last resort that the city officials
consented to try the plan of popular
subscription, which has been urged
so often by thoughtful people as the
best method Of disposing of securi-
ties, and of placing them in hands
should be held. From the day that
the sale was open the demand for
the bonds increased steadily until,
at the last, only a small portion of
the applicants could be accommo-
dated.
1t is now demonstrated that there
are abundant savings in every large
city to absorb all of it's securities,
and that these will be invested will
lngly in low rate bonds. AS is usu-
ally the case, it is the uncalculated
and unsupported consequences of the
new departure which are likely to
be the most important. Almost any
of placing loans locally, in the way
of saving brokers' commissions, and
of keeping the money paid out in
interest at home instead of sending
it to a distant point. But it is prob
able that the general adoption of
| this practice will be of still greater
value as a check to municipal eX-
| travagance. AS an illustration, Phil
| adelphia is contemplating another
issue Of bonds for subway purposes.
These, also, the brokers do not care
| to handle, but the officials are de-
lighted with the prospect of being
able to place them by a popular
loan. 1t is quite likely that a sur
prising disappointment is in store
| for them. There is strong pub
lie sentiment against the issue of a
large block of bonds for this purpose,
and if the people who have the
money with which bonds are to be
bought disapprove of the object for
which these bonds are issued, then
they will not purchase them. II
will be seen i'm a moment that il
city securities are generally disposed
Of by the method of public subscrip-
ton, then the people themselves have

VALE. PEAIBROoKE

The G lobe presents the final
statement of the case of Pembroke
this morning, in the shape of an in
terview with the pensioner himself.
1t has taken particular pleasure in
hunting this matter down, because
it believes it to be type of the
allegations that are constantly made
against the Democratic party by con-
scienceless politicians, and spread be-
fore the public by newspapers which
are reckless about their facts. Mr..
Pembroke confirms in every partic-
ular the statement obtained by the
G b e from the records at Wash
ington. Moreover, he has not, it
appears, made any complaint to any
body of injustice done to him by
this administration, nor authorized
any newspaper publication. His pen
sion having been missent, he was
told to see Col" Bevans about it,
1t seems that this titled person is an
amateur reporter; for the next thing
was the appearance, without the
knowledge or consent of Mr. Penn
Pioneer Press.
This article was published by the
Pioneer Press on the LIST of August.
A dispatch to Washington would
have brought it the truth in a few
hours. A telephone message to Com
missioner Lochren at Minneapolis
would have enabled it to be fair and
truthful. A reporter sent out to
Kent street would have found Mr..
Pembroke himself, and ascertained
whether the tale told by the self-con-
Stituted colonel and reporter was
true or false. The Pioneer Press did
not take the trouble to do any of
these things. 1t printed the story as
it came, although rejecting upon an
honored citizen of this state, solely
because it was aimed at the Demo-
cratic party. 1t accompanied the
local article with the following pious
editorial reflection: commissioner
Lochren is constrained to take this
view of the law, possibly because the
facts warrant it, but more probably
because he is under the freezing in
fuence of the illiberal policy of the
Democratic administration toward
Union soldiers
Mr.. Pembroke says, and would
have said to the Pioneer Press
if he had been asked: 81 want
to say that 1 know Commits
sioner Lochren personally, and had
talk with him on the case some
time ago. But it has never been be-
fore him in any manner, and to
say that he is responsible for the
matter is doing him an injustice.
The case was adjudicated under the
Arthur administration by Commits
sioner Raum, and no one else.'' This
ends particularly mean and mali
cious Misrepresentation of the acts
and motives, of the Democracy and
the commissioner of pensions, as
every other such case in rela-
ton to pensions has ended when in
vestigated. Mr.. Pembroke is en-
titled to have a respite from the
publicity which he has not invited.
To what "Col." Bevans and the
Pioneer Press are entitled is for
public that loves truth-telling and
fair play to decide. We believe that
the punishment for such offenders
is not as severe in this latitude as
they make it further South.

Chinese people before that land will
be safe place of residence for the
foreigner. AS we have said already,
the one choice for governments that
intend to protect their citizens in
that quarter of the world is either
to forbid any of their people to en-
ter China at all, under penalty of
forfeiting their home allegiance, or
to take such part in the government
of China as alone can give them adj
equate protection. The nations of
Europe have been actively engaged
for years past in seeking new fields
for the exercise of their power. They
have rummaged the most distant
portions of the earth for new terri
tory, have waged costly wars in
Siam, Burmah, and Madagascar,
have almost quarreled among them
selves in partitioning the continent
of Africa, and have run races to see
which could first plant it's standard
on some worthless island in the Pa
cific. They have now an opportunity
to make a real extension of power
in Asia.
It is manifest destiny that the
peoples of the East shall be
brought under a wiser, juster and
humaner rule. Either they must be
inspired themselves, as Japan has
been, by the spirit of modern times,
or they must yield to it in accepting
an external control. The time seems
ripe for applying this rule to China.
Her people are incapable of the
change necessary to conform them
to modern ideas. They cannot, in
the nature Of things, be left any
longer in their isolation. The same
necessity that confronted the settlers
of the American continent ex-
lists in Asia today. The Chi
nese empire is the last great
barrier against which the forces
of modern life have beaten in
vain. 1t must come down. We be-
lieve it to be for the best interests
Of China herself, for those of the rest
of the world, and for those of hui
manity, that the power which she
has exercised so weakly and cruelty
should be taken away and confided
to stronger and ADLER hands.

BRICE BEATEN AT HOME,
But Sound Money Men Will Con-
troll the Convention.

LIMA, o., Aug 1O-The free silver
men succeeded in getting the best of
the day here, the home of Senator
Brfce, at the county convention today.
Seven out of the ten delegates chosen
from Allen county to the Democratic
state convention are pronounced for
free silver. Considerable feeling was
engendered. The silver men seemed
to have caught their opponents I'M
awares. The silver men claim to have
also carried the Lorain county Demo-
cratic convention today.
CINCINNATI, o., Aug. 1O.-Many
county conventions were held through
out the state today to select delegates
to the Democratic state convention,
which meets at Springfield, Tuesday,
Aug. 20. The business men selected
sound money delegates in Marion,
Preble, Hancock and Allen counties.
The free silver men carried Washing
ton, Lorain and Greene counties. The
sound money men have two of the
delegates from Greene county, and the
free silver men two from Preble coun-
ty. Walter e. Richie, of Lima, the
manager for Brice, denies that the
senator was defeated in his home, of
Allen county. The Allen county con-
vention reaffirmed the platform of 1892
and selected Brice delegates.

Capt. Kennedy Injured.

Capt. James w. Kennedy, the barber
at 14o East Fifth street, was struck by
terday on Fifth street, between Robert
and Jackson. He was severely bruised,
but, so far as can now be known, he
was not seriously injured. He was re-
moved to his home at So East Seventh
street, and attended by DR.. Hoyt. The
accident took place while Kennedy
was crossing the street towards his
shop. He did not hear the noise of the
car, which came up behind him. The
sound of the car bell was drowned by
the roar of passing vehicles.
