WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 1.-The
Chinese government through its minis
ter. Mr.. WI Ting Fang, has preached
to the authorities here the willingness
Of China 10 negotiate an extradltion
treaty, applicable to all criminals, but
Intended in particular to reach the
"hghbinders.' This Fraternity has
spread terror through the far west. It
purports to be organized for fraternal
end insurance purposes, Dut under this
ru!se 1t is alleged, It carries on a secret
system of crime, marking victims for
Slaughter when they incur the enmlty
o. the organization. There have been
many agitations in the west against
The fraternity, but 1t is said that the To-
cal officials have been unable to wipe
ont the evil The Chinese government
finally determined to take cogniZance OF
the subject as the agitatloHs In this
country operated quite as much against
the abiding Chinese and against
the Chinese government itself, as it did
against the parties to the secret crimes.

New York World: In an article in the
current scrlbner's Joseph Chamberlain
makes by the use of quotations two
sagaclous appeals to America in behalf
OF the Anglo-Amerlcan good UNDER
standing.
The first is from the last state paper OF
Lincoln, written just before his assassi-
nation:
The interests OF civilization and hui
manlty require that the two nations
should be friends, havr always known
and accepted It as fact honorable to
both countries that the queen OF Eng
land Is a sincere and honest well-wisher
OF the United States. and have been
equally frank and explicit in the opinion
that the friendship OF the United states
toward Great Britain Is enjo!ned by all
the considerations of Interest and Of SEN
timent affecting the character of both,
The second quotation is from the con-
Guiding passages Of the Memoirs of
Cen. Grant" written on his death bed;
England and the United States are
natural allies ana should be the best Of
friends. We together. or even either
separately. are better qualified than
any other people to establish commerce
between all the nationalltles OF the
world.
or course these utterances are only
Obvious common sense. But the feathers
of a great name give aim and far flight
TO the arrow Of common sense.
