CERTAIN IN THE SOUTH
REFORM PARTIES WANT POWERS TO MAKE NAN KING THE CAP
ITAL-DUlLNESS IN TRADE MAY LEAD MANY -,
IDLE MEN TO JOIN REVOLT.

New York, Sept. 5-A dispatch to the
herald from .Hongkong says:
influential natives state that the flame
has been famed in the southern provinces
and predict a tremendous confagration
Wlthln month. Placards and pamphlets
are being circulated in Canton and the
provinces intimating that the allies are
thoroughly routed. The feeling against
foreigners is bursting the bounds of of
ficial control. The majority of the mis-
sion station in KWang Tung have been
either destroyed or looted. Native Chris
t1ans are terribly abused. Natives in for
eign employ in Canton have been threat
ened and systematic looting of the
houses of the English speaking China
men has taken place.
Several reform parties, with their quar-
ters in Hongkong have been supported by
funds from rich Chinese in the interi Dr.
and in America, have hitherto refrained
from aggressive action, believing that the
powers would effect the regenera ton of
the government. One powerful organi-
zation is distributing thousands Of coDi IS
of a reform appeal in the British colonies.
The memorandum has been signed by 200
names for presentation to the British
minister, imploring the assistance of re-
form government. 1t recommends estaD-
fishing Nan King as the capital and Sc
lection of enlightened Chinese officials to
administer government with foreign ad-
vices. These people are dishe a"tened at
the reported intention of the powers to
withdraw from China. Different sOci-
cites are combining to raise the standard

/ ernment.

Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew presented

strongholds of national faith and nation-

For that power we require as our lead

so in touch with the party that they re-

A CHINESE LEAGUE.
To Educate Great Britain on Ea stern
Situation.

New York, Sept. 5.-Mr. George Jami-
son. former consul general of her Bri-
tanic majesty at Shanghai, is passing
through New York on his way to China
by way of Vancouver. Mr.. Jamison is
one of the best known authorities on
Chinese affairs and has made a study of
the finances of the empire, which has
supplied the materials for most that has
been recently written on that subject.
He returns to China as the representa-
tive of the Pekin syndicate, which has
received important mining and railroad
concessions in the province of Shanghai,
and he has consequently an immediate
interest in the settlement of the present
troubles and in the political and material
future of the empire Mr.. Jamison is
also one of the founders and an honorary
secretary of the China league, an organi-
zation recently formed in London for the
purpose of supplementing the work of
China as soon by by educating the
public mind of the united kingdom in
regard to the magnitude of the CONNER
cial and other interests dependent upon
the "open door, in China.
Following the work of the league Mr..
Jameson said:
"Its purposes are similar to those of
your American Asiatic association with
which hope it may establish close and
friendly relations. Like those here who
know anything about this subject we are
impressed with the Importance of China
as an open market for our manufactures
and with the immense possibilities which
that country presents as legitimate
field for these enterprises. We think we
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1900-09-05

have some reason to take exception to
the lack of a definite line of policy on the
part of our government in it's dealings
with China, but we recognize the fact
that the absence of strong, popular sen-
tlment on the subject may be held to ex-
cuse much of the hesitancy which has
been apparent in English diplomatic
action. Mr.. Hay very properly insisted,
In his communications to foreign governs
ments year ago, that a reform of the
administrative system of China was abb
solutey bound up with the preservation
of the integrity of the empire But
there can be no such reform under the
rule of the empress dowager and her cor~
rupt ring of advisers. If the Russian prol
posal means anything it means a return
to the statu quo ante to the state OF
things under which the Boxer movement
was promulgated and encouraged and the
life of every foreigner in China was plac-
ed in jeopardy. There are great many
things yet to be explained in regard to
the recent events in China but this much
is certain that had the empress dowager
and her satellites been allowed their own
way the whole country would have been
in flame of anti-foreign insurrection to-
day and the fiction that the powers are
not at war with China would have had
to be abandoned.
1T is true that we must have some kind
of responsible government with which to
make terms for the settlement of the fu-
ture of China and of the status of our
foreign interests there. There is no such
| government in China at the present mos
ment, because the emperor. if he be still
alive, is under duress and the empress
dOwager can answer for nothing except
the perpetuation of the ignorant hatred OF
the foreigner which she and her advisors
cherish in common. 1t may be to the
interest of Russia and Ii Hung Chang to
make easy the restoration of the authors
ity of the empress dowager, but it is cer-
tainly not to the interest of any power
that wants to see China preserved from

reer of peace progress and prosperity"

Portland, Ore, Sept. 5.-Shortly after
II O'Clock this morning a fire was dis
covered on the roof of the Good Samari-
tan hospital, directly over the kitchen,
which is on the top floor. The structure
is large three-story frame building.
For a time after the discovery of the
flames there threatened to be a serious

were large number, We're transferred

not already been taken to other hos

OVER THE SIBERIAN ROAD.
Missionary Who Barely Escaped Being
Held in Pekin.

Boston, Sept. 5.-Rev. F. E.Clark DID,
professor of the University of Christian
Endeavor, has reached Boston on tha
steamer .Cestrian, after an eventful
journey around the world. His purpose
In making the journey was to attend na-
tional Christian Endeavor conventions
in Japan, China, France, Spain and Ger
many, which We're all very successful,
and also the great worlds convention in
London, which was attended by more
than $4,000 people.
DR.. Clark left northern China only a
week before the trouble broke out and
barely escaped being shut up in Pekiu
with the other foreigners. He declares
that the foreigners We're living in utter
ignorance of the coming disasters. Evs
cry one of course knew that the Boxers
were mastering and thought that the
disturbances might mean the overthrow
of the present dynasty. But no one IN
the legations or among the merchants
or missionaries conceived that foreign.
ers would suffer severely, much less that
the legations would be besieged. DIR.
Clark spoke in the highest terms of Maj.
Conger, the American minister. as a man
of great ability, courtesy and common
sense.
DR.. Clark returned home by way OF
the trans-Siberian railway and the Amur
river, bein one of the first travellers to
cross Siberia by the all-steam route.

Comptroller. William J. Morgan of

the fact that the speech nominating

From Inter Mountain Staff Correspond
ent:
Helena, Mont, Sept. 5.-The state re-
publican convention comprising the
finest looking lot of men that ever met
together under one roof in Montana, was
raped to order by Joseph Woolman,
chairman of the central committee, in
the Auditorium in this CITY, at II o'clock
this morning. The delegates marched
from the various hotels to the hall in a
body, the Silver Bow county section be-
ing headed by the Alice band, and the
Cascade county delegation by the Black
Eagle band of Great Falls. Shortly af-
ter majority of the delegates had taken
their seats ex-senator Wilbur F. San
ders and Senator Thomas Carter entered
| the room, and were given an ovation.
The regular delegation from Silver
Bow county had little trouble in proving
it's title to participation in the proceed
ings of the body. Last night meeting

ed their claims for recognition by the
! state convention. Hon. -Chas. r. Leon
ard and John w .Cotter represented the
| interests of the irregular delegation and
| j. E. Richards, Lee Mantle and L. O.
! Evans appeared for regular organization.
All of the details in connection with the
proceedings of the county central COM
| mittee, which led to the division, were re-
counted for the benefit of the committee,
! and after a shot consultation the latter
body decided unanimously to recommend
the temporary seating of the regular
delegation, headed by G. w. Irwin and
other well-known and influential repub-
licans in Silver Bow county.
This was serious blow to the other
side, for it's fight had been made, not to
have the committee recognize it and keep
the regular delegation out, but to keep
both from participation in the temporary
organization pending the final determin-
alton Of the contest by the convention as
a whole.
