Passing of the MIngs.

The Empress DoWager,' says the
Chinese Minister at Washington, lis
a Manchu woman, notwithstanding re-
ports TO the contrary in many we'll
informed quarters. That the Empress
Dowager is a Manchu should be we'll
understood, for it means good deal
in the Government of China. The
Manchus are the present reigning dy-
nasty of China, just as Victoria is part
of the Hanoverian dynasty of England.
The Manchus are known as the people
from the Long White Mountains They
sweep of country to the north of old
China, with Moukden as its capital
Originally the Chinese proper from
the southern country maintained their
dynasties. They were known as the
Mag dynasties, Ming meaning bright.
When the Manchu dynasty was estab-
Hshed it was known as the Using or
! clear dynasty. The Manchus are not
/ ed for their staIwart frames, their abil-
lity as warriors and their love of hunt
/
which brought them into power. The
/ last Emperor of the Ming dynasty was
disturbed with serious instructions,
and he turned to the warlike Manchus
/ for assistance. They marched to Pc
/ king and found the Emperor absent

! Picking thus undefended, and the
! throne vacated, the Manchus took pos
session of the city and throne, and have
/ ever since held it. The last Emperor
of the Ming dynasty hanged himself

/ ed during his absence. 1t is to this
strong Manchu element that the En-
press Dowager belongs-the same ele-
ment that has directed the affairs Of
China for go years"

CHINA IN TRADE
Wharton Barker Writes
on Great Possibilities.
Capital is in the Country-Energy
and Enterprise Are Lacking.
Chances at Hand.

There has been published an article
from the pen of Wharton Barker on
the possibilities of future trade rela-
lions between the United States and
China. In the course of his article
Mr.. Barker writes:
SO strict is the Chinaman IN all his
commercial dealings that the scrupu-
lous exactitude with which he keeps
his bargains is proverbial throughout
! the East. The name of the Chinese
merchant is synonym OF honor And
in this lies the hope of China, the OPP
pOrtunity of China TO escape the dan
gers that confront her.
| That hope is the development OF
China by Americans and Europeans in
conjunction with the Chinese, a devel-
opment the profits of which will not
merely accrue TO the foreigner. but
enrich and aggrandiZe China. While
| refusing TO permit development in a
way that means despoilment, she must
invite development in a way that
means enrichment. And the reinstate-
ment of the Chinese party is an earn
est of this, an earnest that the foreign
er, the American, the European of
energy and ability and willing TO cast
in his lot with China, grow up with
China, Will be invited into China to
work in conjunction with Chinese for
the development of China's resources
and weath-prOducing capabilities. And
here the reputation of the Chinese
merchant for probity will stand China
in good stead, for, because of it, Am
Iericans and Europeans will be attract
ed toward alliances with such China
men, rather than be repealed.
Capital in China for China's devel-
Opment, is not wanting. What is
wanting is the energy, the enterprise,
the skill that can successfully direct
the BUILDING and operating of railroads
skill and energy that China wants. II
is this skill and energy that she must
gain before her own capital will be-
come available for her own develop
ment, for the investment of that CAPT
tai awaits the assurance of turning out
thai such skill and
energy alone can give. So the oppor-
tunities for Americans and Europeans
TO enter into partnership with Chinese
for the development OF China are
great. They must have enterprise and
skill, they must command capital that
they may put into the partnership as
an earnest of their good faith, as an
assurance of their own faith in their
own ability. With such assurance they
can command Chinese capital. and as
they build up China, build up their
own fortunes

&" Starving Soldiers.

One of the boys at Camp Mckinley
has written TO his mother in New York
a letter that is reproduced in the New
York Journal, under the caption Sol
diers Starving in Hawaii" The young
insufficient and badly cooked, and that
fruit is expensive. He rather mixes
things up, however, when he tells of
going into the hills a short distance
from camp and gathering all the fruit
he can carry from wild orchards"
1t is an unskillful letter, but of the
general tone of a good many that have
gone from men who wish TO have the
regiment recalled.
