and power in d foreign country.
The Chinese by Strengthening the repre-
senta:ives of all nations in christendom, and
by the murder. torture and mutiation Of
women and children. have challenged the
civilized world.
Humanity and civilization are at stake.
The issue Is dependent upon the retribution
and punishment tho Christian nations will

The races outside OF the civilization of
Elrope and America will respect and treat
with US in proportion TO she way we meet II.
Every official OF the Chinese Government,
whether Empress Dowager. Prince. General
or Mandarin. who had any part In the mas
sacre should be hanged as malefactor
against humanity.
AS Il punishment everything which repre-
seats the official life of China In her capital
should be RACED 10 the ground. No stone
should be left upon stone. There should
be no Land grabbing partitioning OF CHI
