In view Of the strong and aggressive
attitude this government has taken in
demanding its treaty rights in China,
it becomes important for everybody to
know just what those rights are. First
aud formost, of course, comes the obll-
cation Of the signatory powers to pro-
tect the person of each others ministers,
diplomatic and consular agents. This
all The world now knows, notwlthstand
many conflicting statements, the Chi
nese government failed to do, and there
is grave doubts as to whether it even
made the attempt to do until after 1t
imagined it heard the tramp Of the al
lied army on Its way to Pekin. Next
in Importance is that section of the
treaty dealing with citizens of either
country residing in the other. That
promised the broadcast protection, in the
Chinese are dangerous enemies, for they
are treachcrous That's why all countcrfclts
of Dew tits Witch Hazel Salvc are danger,
GUS They look like DcWltts, but instead of
the all healing witch hazel they all contain
ingredients liable to irritatc the skin and
cause blood poisoning. For piles, injuries
and skin diseases use the original and genu'
iue Dew it's Witch Hazel Salvc. DrWatcrs
exact words Of the treaty, promising to
assure to citizens of the United States
in China, and to Chinese in the United
States entire liberty of conscience and
exemption from disability or persecu-
ton on account of their religious faith
or worship in either country" 1t is
not denied that American citizens have
been butchered by Chinese, for no other
cause than their practice and preach
ing of christianity. That is another
count that China must settle satislac-
torily with this government. 10 what
extent our commercial treaty rights
have been violated is not yet definitely
known; but every dollar Of damage done
will have 10 be paid by China, with ill.,
terest. Revenge is not debating the
policy of this government, which is ask.
ing no more and will take no less than
what belongs to it under It's treaties
with China.

The Chinese Government is either
throwing off the mask and delying the
powers or is making a gigantic bluff.
It's notice to the powers that the foreign
ministers at Pekin would not be allowed
to send or receive cipher messages is an
acknowledgement that the ministers
are prisoners, held as hostages, and in
stead of resulting in stopping the march
of the allied army to Pekin, is likely to
hurry it, if any thing can conquer the
international ieaousies and chickering's
efficiently to hurry it. The War De-
partment now knows that the press
dispatches announcing the starting Of
the army for Pekin, were premature. II
also knows considerably more about the
situation at Taku aud at Ten Tsin, as
it has received two long messages from
Gen. Chaffce, which it was deemed in
advisable to make public.
