THE PROBLEM IN CHINA.

That hostilities on large scale are
sooner or later to take place in China is
no longer a matter of doubt. The ques-
ton that affects us is, what part will
our Government play in them, and
what complications, fanny, will it lead
us into?
When we started in on the Spanish
war it was regarded as an affair of little
moment. It was thought we would
quickly drive the Spaniards out of Gu
ba, give it independence and then, con-
scious of deed well done, proceed on
the even tenor of our way. But al
though there has been peace between
Spain and the United States for almost
two years, presidential campaign is
being waged on the outcome of the
Spanish war and the subsequent con-
duct of the Government.
Is there not good ground to ask,
where will the Chinese affair end?
1t is so much easier to get into these
international squabbles than to get out
of them. There is little doubt but that
one of the greatest of modern powers,
Russia, has enlisted for the war. Her
Intention was to fight Japan for the
control of Korea, whether there had
or had not been disturbance in China,
and this she will eventually do, and
she will be ready to pitch into any
power that gives Japan helping hand
It is a relief to know that the policy
of the English Government is, as an
nounced by the Under Secretary for
Foreign Affairs IN the House of Com
mons the last day of the session, to
''have nothing to do with pulling down
or setting up Chinese governments.
That means the Dowager Empress,
however bad she may be, is not to be
dethroned, nor the young Emperor,
however good he may be, to be set up
on the throne. Sal1sbury's declaration
is that the Government of China is to
be Chinese and Chinese to the salts
faction of an independent China"
And in this position it is said he has
the concurrence of Washington,
So far so good, This is the policy of
non-interference, and of agrees
ion, China for the Chinese. But what of
Germany and Russia and France?
They will not concur in any such ar
rangement. It is generally believed
throughout Europe that Emperor Will
liam is bent on conquest. that the sell
ection of Waldersee means fighting on
a large scale even after ,Pekin is in the
| hands of the forces, which will happen
before WaIdersee reaches China.
The plans of Russia are for extension
of its powers in Manchuria, and from
there south to New Chang. Germany
will hold on to Kiao Chau and work for
more territory back of it. France will
make her hold on South China all the
more tight. Three powers mean to
carve China. The United States, Eng
land and perhaps Japan are for letting
it alone, maintaining its integrity as
the saying is. When the parting of
the way comes after order is restored
in China, what then?- Nashville Amer
