Cand0r looks with equal fairness a.
both sides of a subject.-Noah Webster.
Washington sentinel., 1901-06-29

THERE is a saying in China that
the Tartars conquered the men
but never overcame the women.
These hated foreigners first took
the empire about 1909, and though
expelled and resisted during
more than two centuries, they re-
established themselves at PekinP
in I644, and placed on the throne
the hrst represS Sntative Of the
Ts'ing dynasty, which still reigns.
They issued an order that, as a
sign OF surrender, all the men were
to grow a tail, but to have the rest
OF their heads shaven, and all the
women were to unbind their gol-
den lily feet. The men submitted;
the women planted those suffering
little stumps with terrible resolu-
ton and answered "Never." To
this day they would rather endure
the misery of crushed bones, and
their little girls would rather bear
the agony Of the crushing process,
than suffer the loss OF self respect
and society's respect II they be-
came like Tartar women. The
TAPPING rebellion, in the quelling
OF which General Gordon gained
the title OF "Chinese Gordon, ," was
a revolt against the foreign yoke,
and its first act Of open revolt was
cropping the tails and scorning the
razor.
