SUSPICIOUS OF CHINA.
German Newspapers Are Convinced of
Oriental DupIicity

Uerman Newspapers Are Convinced of
Oriental DupIicity.
A dispatch from Berlin states, The Ber-
liner Post printed last evening an important
article on the Chinese situation, under
stood to emanate from the German for
eign office The article discusses the close
relations between Chinese politics and Chi
nese military plans, and points out the
significant fact that the peaceful assurances
of Chinese statesmen did not begin until
after the success of the allies at Tien Tsin,
suggesting that this is something more
than mere coincidence as shown by a
reference to the similar tactics of the Chi
nese in the Anglo-French war with China
in 1S57-6O
The writer strongly argues that hitherto
the course of events in China utterly con-
tradicts the tactical position of Chinese Of
flctaldom, which is that the government IS
blameless for the warlike steps of the Chi
nese against the allies. AT Taku and
lien Tsln,' says the article, sit was al
most exclusively a force of regular Chi
nese troops that fought the allies. The
leadership of these troops was In the hands
of imperial generals, and it lie also fact
mat the troops which compelled Admiral
Seymour's retreat were imperial soldiers.
commanded by an imperial general"
The article proceeds to show that war
was indirectly promoted most effectively
by the chinese policy, which thus did ex-
cellent preliminary work for the military
leaders.
The article concludes as follows:
whether Chinese craftsmanship is to
succeed In hindering an energetic and in
telligent plan of operations by the allies
the future will show, but the plans of the
allies will be at disadvantage against
the Chinese just so soon as a lack OF har-
mony in military aims appears"
Last evenings papers devote considerable
attention to President McKtnlpy'a cnpsapt
to mediate, and the comment is all unfayor-
able. Surprise is generally expressed that
Washington takes Chinese official news Sc
riously.

SECRETARY WILSON'S VIEWS.
Island Possessicns VIII Have the
Government They Are Capable OF.

Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson
was permanent chairman of the Tama
county, Iowa, republican convention held
at Tama yesterday. Secretary Wilson spoke
at considerable length, dealing largely with
expansion.
He declared that the insurrection in the
Philippines had been practically downcd,
and continued: Those events have added
new issue for consideration this fall-the
great question of expansion. 1t must be
considered from several standpoints. The
Christian will conclude that God in His
mercy has given America work to do in
raising from the dust poor peoples who have
been ill-used by Spain for 100 years.
Little Americans Will get frightened at
the growth of the nation and make oppoSi-
ton. Politicians, in DESPERATION for an is
sue, will call expansion Imperialism, and an
imperialist is ruler who is restrained by
any division of authority or written consti-
tuition China IS ruled that way. Countries
that have independent lawmakers and inde-
pendent courts like ours have nothing to
fear from imperialism.
Those island possessions will have all
the local self-government of which they are
capable. They will get the hammer and the
looking glass when 1t is safe for the look
ing glass ASuinaldo and his insurgents
proposed Imperialism to begin with The
dirk of the assassin is chief executor in
such government. and Aguinaldo sets 1t at
work. The Kansas City convention spent
most of its time discussing silver There
was dangerously large element in favor
of honest money. 1t resolved that imperial
ism should be the paramount issue No
doubt it had Agunaldo in hand, or maybe
the Dowager Empress of China.
1T Is very high privilege to be under
the American flag on any terms We will
soon hear from other islands that are con-
tiguous, but not under the flag Cuba in
dependent will not have the privileges that
Porto Rico has. 1t is so small a matter for
our country to do much for an island or a
thousand islands.
An alliance with England is spoken Of
we nave no relations with that country
open or secret, thar We do not have with
all other countries. No treaty of that kind
exists or could exist
we have become one of the great world
powers. and cannot indulge in underhand
diplomacy. We are making a reputation in
the line of straightforward dealing with
other nations. Our State Department is
ieadns the chancellories of the old world
In many instances. 1t has their confidence
but would lose it If especial favors were ex-
tended to any one of them. We have dis
tressing conditions in China but we seek
nothing there except good neighborhood and
good Will But all peoples must learn that
the United States will protect its citizens in
all lands in future. and whoever injuries
them or their property will be held to a
strict reckoning"

The Discussion. Havana newspaper. in

tutional convention. says,
From this time on the fight should be
to secure representatives in the convention
who are strong partisans of independence.
There are certain persons in the United
States now making a last effort to defeat
the realization of our ideal. If the United
States government lives up to the Joint
resolution Of Congress Cuba should have
absolute independence. She cannot be in
dependent if she is to be compelled to act
through Washington in the matter of con-
Guiding treaties and contracting debts.
Everybody admits that the Americans Will
always have a strong moral influence over
Cuba Common sense demands this. But
the Cuban people wish this influence in the
form OF advice and good counsel. They
cannot admit the right of Washington TO
