The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1897-11-20

A rather sensational report by cable tells
of the capture by German warships of
three forts on Kiaochou bay, on the Shan
tung coast, China. Germany had a griev
ance, it seems, in that two German mis-
sionaries had been murdered in the prov
ince The warships trained their guns on
the forts and sent an ultimatum to the
Chinese commanders giving them three
hours in which to make satisfactory reply.
Upon receipt OF the message the Chinese
garrisons abandoned the forts and ske-
daddled to the woods. The Germans there
upon took possession of the forts and
hoisted the German flag over them. 1t
is not known how the Chinese government
will regard the matter. Almost any other
nation would consider that am overt act of
war had been committed; but then the
Chinese are a very peculiar people.

Senator Morgan is satisfied that we need
to annex Hawaii as a preventive measure
against our arch-enemy, John Bull. Ha-
wall is 900 miles away from our nearest
seaport. If Senator Morgan will exam
inc the map he will find that John Bull
has naval stations within msch shorter
distance of our biggest cities on the At
lantic seaboard. If we need to go 1900
miles into the Pacific to defend ourselves
against England, what is to be thought
of the British naval stations at Halifax,
Bermuda and elsewhere at our very doors,
not to mention the fact that John is only
across the river from us on the Canadian
frontier. If John Bull wanted to hurt
us, he would not need to go around by
our back yard; he could come in by the
front gate with much less trouble.

TO PUSH RECIPROCAL TREATIES.

The report to the effect that the min
kter Of commerce Of France has signi-
fed desire to enter into new COM
mercial agreement with the United States
under the reciprocity clause Of the Ding
ley law VIII attract public attention to
this very meritOrious feature of the new
tariff legislation. In the general enthusi-
asm attending the enactment Of the
measure the reciprocity provisions appear
to have been lost sight OF. although they
are destined to have an important bear
ins upon our foreign commerce in the
near future.
Under the reciprocity clause it viii be
the duty Of the president to ascertain
through our diplomatic representatives
what nations are willing to avail them
selevs Of the advantages OF this law by
entering into reciprocal trade relations
on the terms proposed. 1t was the policy
Of the trainers Of the law OF lssJ TO
stimulate the negotiation for commercial
treaties with foreign countries which
enabled US to extend the market for our
meats and breadstuffs until our foreign
trade reached a point never before at
lained in the history of our country.
SO popular was this feature OF the
Mckinley law that the present congress
was quick TO recognize the necessity for
the enactment Of reciprocity provisions
upon a liberal scale. Moreover the plat
form upon which the present adminis-
tration came into power was strongly
and unequivocally committed to the res
toration Of this policy.
The Dingley law provides that the
president within two years, may enter
into commercial treaties with any coun-
Try for the admission into that country
Of the products of the United States. II
any advantages arr conceded to our
products the president may for five years
make 20 per cent reduction III the tarir
duties on specified articles imported from
the country making the concessions. He
may also transfer from TIE dutiable list
to the free list of the Dingley act GER
tain specified articles of commerce which
are the natural products Of any country
that is willing TO grant free access OF
our natural products to their ports
The fact that France is said to be
anxious to be the first country to nego-
tiate reciprocal treaties under the Dingley
act is significant. Is is an augury Of the
ultimate restoration Of the favorable
trade relations that were developed out
Of the legislation of 1880 and 50 reck-
lessly abandoned by the tariff act of
1894. 1t means an expansion Of the for
eign markets for our surplus products
which may lift our foreign trade above
the high-water mark Of 1892

Since the development Of the Alaska
gold fever and the exodus from Astoria
Of a large number Of its citizens TO that
territory, while many more are preparing
to leave, either this fall or next spring,
for the gold regions, the question has
been asked whether the effect would
not be to very materially reduce busl-
ness here, partially depopulate the city,
and retard the course Of events many
years. A single glance at the true 'situa-
ton must at once quiet any such fear.
We have but to look at Seattle, San
Francisco, Victoria and Portland, to say
nothing about Eastern cities, to learn a
different lesson. Every man who leaves
Astoria leaves a place to be filed. If
he has been a working man. some other
working man, who has been out of
Job. will step into his position. If he
has been lawyer, merchant, business
man or clerk, someone else viii succeed
him, and those who have been in en-
forced idleness, will be given a chance
to secure situations. The supplies pur-
chased and taken away by the gold
hunters from Astoria, while small COM

life into the town and made profitable
