He wants to be let alone to live in his

religion and civilization have the
weight of untold centuries behind them
and he holds them in reverence. They
have done for his fathers they will do
for him. The constant encroachment
of foreigners, with their strange ire
ligion and ways, arouses him from
apathy and stirs him to action. In his

Situation in China.

| The magnitude OF the Chinese trou-
BILE is beginning to be appreciated in
the capitals Of the powers interested.
Instead of being viewed as mere local
outbreak, which would not require
much more than a demonstration OF
force to quell, it is seen to be a vast
and deep movement that has driven in
to dreadful potentiality the usually in
ert mass of the millions of Chinese
population. Ii any power welcomed
the Boxer trouble rs an excuse for get
ting a chance to slice into Chinese ter
ritory, that time has passed. 1t looks
now as il any power that conquered
Chinese territory would earn it at
dear price.
At this writing, it seems probable
that the foreign ministers were still
alive as late as July 18th, and it is
hoped now also, though Minister Con-
gers short and curious despatch. sup
posed to have been sent from Pekin on
that day, stated that only immediate
aid could prevent q general massacre.
This aid has not arrived and cannot Tor
many days yet. Though the allies have
captured Tien Tsin. they do not con-
slider themselves strong enough to adj |
vance toward Pekin in the face of the
hordes OF Chinese who oppose them. !
They must acknowledgements. which |
will require some time 1t may be too
late to save the legations, it It is not
already.
Conditions at Pekin are still un-
known to the world outside. From what
can be deduced. the regular established
government still exists and has some
sort OF authority. We hear OF imperial
DEGREES, etc, and the Chinese foreign
ministers at various capitals receive Of |
fetal communications from their gov-
eminent. But the authority exercised
seems to be OF a somewhat dubiou, ma
ture and it is apparently overawed by |
the Boxer party. Instead of putting
forth every effort to repress the rebels |
and appealing to the world TO witness
that it would DO its best to cope with
them and that il had no sympathy with /
them. it tries to steer middle course 1
and while washing its hands of the
crime OF assassinating ministers ac-
credited to its capital it excuses the up
rising as natural under the circum- /
stances and blames the powers for
Selling the Taku forts. That a /
mistake was made in seizfDg
these forts is now generally adj /
mitted. 1t was an overt act Of war to
demand their surrender and their Dos

the attack and took no part in it. Had
il not been done there was reason IN
hope that the Boxers could have been
suppressed without difficulty by the
Chinese government, when it had been
given sufficient time to act. and there
would not have been the general up
rising against foreigners that we hayeI
seen, involving the Chinese imperial
forces. even.
But this lamentable error does not
excuse the Chinese government for
failing to heed the warning given early
