Ing viceroys. ard during tihe recent war
with Japan the viceroy at Canton alb
solutely refused to furnish aid or rein

Therefore the authorities at Pekin
and people generally throughout the
empire do not care what treatment
the Cantonese, who are the em,grating
class. receive In the United States, and
certainly will not retaliate for their
protection under any circumstances.
And particularly just now, when the
jealousy between the northern and
southern provinces is greater than 1t
has ev,r been. This applies to the
officials. So far as the common people
are concerned. not one in ten thousand
of them knows that there is such a
place as the United States. This
knowledge is limited to such as have
come in contact with the Christian
missionaries.

From the Chicago Record.
1t is curious fact that 10 Chinese
Official or newspaper or any other de-
FENDER of the race has attempted to
justify or excuse the persecution and
massacre of the Missionaries or the eX-
clusion of foreigners from the interior
as proper retaliation for the treatment
their fellow countrymen have received
in the United States. In all of the
discussion OF the recent missionary
troubles there has never been an allu-
sion to the Rock Creek massacre in
Wyoming or the anti-Chinese riots in
San Francisc and, although in a long
interview II short time ago Ii Hung
Chang gave every other possible rea-
son In justification of the policy of the
Chinese government in preventing a
commercial and Industrial invasion, he
did not once allude to the laws passed
by our congress prohibiting the immi-
grafton of his countrymen into the
United States.
This is explained very readily by old
residents, who say, in the first place,
htat nearly all-at least 90 per cent
of the Chinese residents in the Unit
ed States are from the province of
Kwang Tung, and from the city of
Canton or it's immediate vicinity. This
is the southernmost province of the
Chinese empire. It's inhabitants speak
n different language from that used in
the other provices, their customs and
habits are very dissimilar, they have
no mutual interests and on sympathy
