POLITICAL SALVATION OF CHINA.

lied Powers, Should Govern.
If China could be dealt with, then,
on a large, broad scale, with free
hand, what would undoubtedly be
done would be to end the Manchu
dynasty, to fill the Supreme Council
and the board of control, which is now
composed half of Manchus and half of
Chinese, with Chinese alone; have
these bodies elect their presidents,
giving what has been the executive for
years administration, and then organ
ize the Chinese government, instead
of, as now, half Chinese and half
Manchu, all Chinese, placing the care
of international police and the collec-
tiOn Of internal revenue in the hands
of commissions under Chinese control,
but officered by Europeans upon the
same plan and precedent already in
operation in the Imperial customs and
postal collection of China. An army
and navy would only be needed for
disorder. The present Chinese ma
chine of administration, with its sys-
tenn of examinations, promotion, Sc
lection, and mingled authority, civil
and military, material and scholastic,
is precisely suited to the temper and
needs of the people which has devel-
oped it during the last twenty cen
turies, What is needed is to place
at its head, under the joint control OF
the civilized powers, commissions
which will give it just the executive
initiative that Tartar conquerOrs have
furnished for centuries.
This is pure theory, but it is theory
which runs directly in line with the
history of the last fifty years. During
that time, bit by bit, China has lost no
territory in the eighteen Provinces, ex-
cept the very small area now occupied
on the Liaotung Peninsula, Wei-hel-
Wei, Kiaochau, and the hinterland of
HOngkong, to which ought, perhaps,
to be added the various foreign settle
ments at Shanghai and elsewhere.

these are altogether outside of China
proper, and for the most part cover
territory whose allegiance to China was
but slight. What has really been TAX
ing place has been the gradual substi-
tuition of European influence and con-
troll for Menchu rule. This began
when the allies secured the free en-
trance of their subjects over the entire
Chinese empire. 1t was continued by
the organization of the customs SER
vice under European and American
protection. 1t has been carried step
farther in the post-Office. The princi-
pie exists in China commercial life in
the great steamship lines, which dc
one-fourth of the trade on the Yangtse
Kiang and are owned by Chinese, but
are officered by Europeans, for the
most part English. 1t has been car
ried out, wherever the Chinese had al
efficient army, by the presence OF
Europeans in command, beginning
with Gordon and the American Ward
and the same principle only needs to
be carried out to leave China to develor
its own form of civilization, its OWL
ideals, gradually assimilating and ap.
propriating the moral principle which
undsrlie European and Christian civil
ization. From "Can China Be Saved,

Senator Tillman's charge, that the

If the political liar could be elimi-

The New Cemetery.

Savannah, Ga, June 6.-Edltor Morning
News: Your very excellent editorial in
Yesterdays News in reference to buying
a new cemetery will be heartily Endorsed
by very many citizens. The Garrard tract
on account of its situation and low
ground, being very undesirable for GEM
etery. Some of land between the Catholic
Cemetery and Bonaventure or Thunder
bolt, being dry, and reached by paved
and electric roads, is certainly in every
respect. more desirable than the Garrard
tract. I would suggest that the city, in
stead of spending 10000, which is the
estimate for buying and putting in order
a tract of land for new Cemetery build
a crematory for one-tenth that amount
in Laurel Grove cemetery and cremate
bodies instead of burying them. Those OBJ
-jecting to this as too modern, could buy
lots in Bonaventure, and the Catholic
Cemetery. Crematories run with LIQUID
afr, destroy the body at once, and there
is nothing half as offensive about them
as in burying your loved ones as food for
worms. For my part, hope crematory
will be in successful operation here when
/ die that my body may be quickly re-
duced to ashes which will then be buried
in an urn in my lot in Bonaventure.

crimes charged against the defendants
ranging - gravity from larceny TO muir
der. Signora Mitchell and Henry Tyndall
were indicted for the latter offense.
The crime with which the Mitchell wo-
man is charged is sufficiently recent 10 be
familiar to the people of Savannah. In a
quarrel over a game of skin. that was
going on in the dive she maintained on
Cuyler street, the woman shot and killed
James Harris one of the players. The ev-
idence at the coroner's inquest was con-
fiicting, the testimony of some of the wit
nesses making out an almost complete
case of self-defense, and that of some 9TH
ers pointing to the guilt of the slayer of
Harris in the most positive and definite
terms. The coroner's jury, however,
brought in verdict of willful murder. and
the grand jury has taken the same view
of the wCman's guilt.
Tyndsll IS charg d with the murder of
Henry Brown, who appears to have been
his rival for the affections of a woman,
Viola Sauls, about whom the quarrel that
terminate in the fatal tragedy took place.
The parties to The homicide and the wo-
man by whom it was indirectly caused
are all negroes. Tyndall carved his vic
tim to death in house occupied by the
woman in the case in Coopershop lane,
one of the worst negro settlements in
Yans craw. The slayer was arrested soon
after the fatal wounds lad been inflicted.
The grand jury found indictments for
burglary against Sam Green, Joe Brown,
Sandy Young Sam Simmons, William
Ford, Richard Austin Alonzo Jones and
W. H. White. Against the two last nam
ed two Indictments each. were found. In
dictments for robbery wgre found against
Louis Frazer and William Gordon. for
larceny from the house against Willie
Porter; for larceny after trust, against
William Brown; for assault with intent to
murder against Sam Harris and Tom
Myers, and for forgery against T. Brown
