Affairs in China.

AS Chinese officials guilty OF crimes
against the hated foreigner are rarely
caught and still more rarely punished. it
is matter for congratulation that the MUIR
derer of Baron Won KetteIer has been ap-
pretended by the Japanese and turned ov-
er TO the German commander. His con-
fession that he assassinated the Kaiser S
Minister under an order from the Chi
nese Government will not tend to rem
der settlement with Germany any easier
for China. Nor will it be a comfortable
thing for the Administration to reflect up
on as it drives another nail in the coffin
of the old pretenee that the imperial au-
thorities of the Empire are not response
BILE for the war they have been wagi1g
for three months against the civilized
States. and more particularly against the
legations and women missionaries Gud
children.
AS We remarked yesterday, the situr>
ton is not yet cleared OF confusion. Thu
appointment of General Yung Lu as a
third peace envoy to act in concert with
Ii Hung Chang and Prince Ching will
prove embarrassing to Mr.. Mckinley. His
most recent intention to find some excuse
for scuttling out of China. regardless of
the continued massacre of American mis-
sionaries and their converts, and OF the
certain butehery OF the native Methodist
and Presbyterian Christians in Pekin, in
case that city should be abandoned. has
received severe check in this new deyel-
opment. Its immediate effect appears TO
be to awaken the Administration to
realization Of the fact that independent
negotiations with the Chinese must neces-
sarily prove abortive. There is an appar-
ent disposition now to favor the esiab-
Iishment of an international commission
for the purpose OF agreeing upon a COM
mon bill of damages. including the claims
of all parties in interest. 1t is understood
that Acting Secretary Hill will try to
bring this about. but that IL the other
powers do not act quickly in the matter.
some sort of terms will be made with the
Chinese peace ENJOYS and the American
troops will be withdrawn. no matter what
effect that step may have upon the fate
OF Americans still in China, or OF the
natiTe Christians
Whatever happens. it is evident that Mr..
Mckinley is determdned not to closely ap-
proach election day with any China
on his head. There may be questions OF
national dignity and honor and of hu-
manity at stake. but. necessarily. they are
as nothing compared with others OF. do

the Republican ticket.

saler. retailer and consumer arbitrarily.
But with all these advantages and an un-
questioned ability to do labor Justice
without injury to itself. the trust not only
refuses to allow to the men upon whose
toll it's prosperity rests. small share in
that prosperity, but actually grinds them
down with exactions and extortions until
they are no longer able to give full meal
of the coarsest food to their wives and
little ones.
This is what happens when unbridled
power is given into the hands of trusts
which Marcus A. Hanna-himself a coal
baron-describes as beneficent institu-
tions. We have stated the case of the
miners without the slightest exaggeration,
and exactly in accordance with the facts
as we understand them. These humble,
down trodden brothers of ours sincerely
believe that the American people will
sympathize with and justify them in the
course they feel they have been forced to
adopt Probably they are right, for all
decent Americans have a common interest
in opposing trust greed and slavery.

The Republican campa!sn managers.
aided by the party press. are making
desperate efforts TO make the country be
lieve that the German-American element
has not bolted Mr.. Mckinley, but WIN
little success. The dispatches which are
published from day 10 day in machine
organs. designed TO create such "a i'm

NOTES OF THE CAMPAIGN.


Is Depew Weakening, Too :-The
Hon. Chauneey Mitchell Denew, by of
those happy accidents that have contri uted
so much to the greatness and renoNn Of
this international orator, boarded an eie
waited train in New York the other day
That was occupied exclusively by the dele
gates to national convention of some
labor organization. When the Senator's
presence was made known TO the visitors
10 the metropolis. of course, there was a
sensation. II was not known by his ad
mirers-and who is not his admirer?-
whether 1t would be the proper thing to
speak to him or TO permit him to enjoy his
-pparent iRcognito. Finally it was de-
clded 10 boldly confront him with the eyi-
dences OF his identity and seek from him
information on the most interesting topic
Of the time. to wit: Who is going TO be
elected President of the United States IN
November next. Tremblingly he was ap-
preached by a. picked pody OF the dele
gates. Their spokesman summoned cour
age enough to ask him timidly what he
thought would be the outcome OF the
Presidential contest Before answering
their question DR.. Depew asked his In.
terogators who they were and what they
represented. When he learned that they
represented a society OF statiodary engin-
GERS he assured them that he was sur
prised, but delighted. to meet them. and
that for many years he had maintained
pleasant relations with men of their craft.
Now" said the Senator. suayely. what
you want to know. as | understand it. Is
who will be elected President in Noyem-
her. | do not hesitate to assure yon that
il all the peoI te hold my views of this con
test William Mckinley would be reelected
overwhelmingly" Just at this point the
train stopped and DR.. Depew dashed out Of
the car. leaving his anxious admirers quite
as much in the dark on the main point as
they were when they asked him for light.
Il is true. as they granted. that the emf
nent New Yorker had taken advantage OF
the tempting opportunity to make a littls
stump speech for his candidate. but he
failed utterly to enlighten them with his
opinion on the subject OF interest to them
II is argued from this incident that DR..
Depew gave a Scotch answer to the plain
question because he did not want to de-
ceive his new-found friends.
