BISHOP ruRNER,s K1EK.

The published interview with Bishop
Turner, OF the Afro-American Methodist
church on the subject of the best means
of solving the negro difficulty, goes to
the root of the evil for which a remedy
is sought Bishop Turner, among other
things. says: ST am as much convinced
as ever that African emigration would
be best for the negro and best for the
white man. There is an irresistible con-
flict between whites and blacks that moth
ing but separation can reconcile and
put an end to-
This language Bishop Turner supple

will open up the highway to Africa mill

statement of this distinguished coIored
clergyman will not be accepted as true
but by a small class of intelligent Amer

i effort put forward to restore the descend
ant of the African negro to the land of
his forefathers. The study of the race
problem which the introduction of the
negro has produced leads inevitably to
cestral home, at least the pure blood ne

The problem as it has presented itself
to view in the British West India islands,
in Santo Domingo and other West In
dian countries presents to view the dou
BILE truth that the white man cannot con-
tinue to live and maintain ascendaney
in the sepli-torrid regions in which the
negro fourishes, ard that in the climes
in which the negro has been permitted to
assume control he has shown a marked
disposition to return to aboriginal con-
ditions.
1t is more than probable that Bishop
Turner is right in his view of the situa-
tion. Nothing short of determined and
comprehensive treatment will meet this
case. 1t is becoming more and more ap-
parent each succeeding day. that even
under the most peaceful social conditions
the negro and the white race cannot con-
tinue to eo-exist in American society
without grave trouble and without the
representatives of the eolored race being
ultimately forced out of even the posi-
tons which they now occupy in American
society.

THE ALR-GUN DANGER.

The distressing accident which hap
and Broadway, in this city, through the
use of an air gun in the hands of a boy
represents a widespread evil. The air
gun is in every respect peculiarly
dangerous weapon. 1t Is always found
in the hands of boys who have no sense
whatever of responsibility in connection
with it's use.
There is a double reason why public
authority should exhaust every means in
it's power to put an end to the dangerous
practice of using the air gun 1t is the
weapon which is in general use among
cruel and mischievous boys for the
destruction of birds, and its use is in i'm
mediate violation of the ordinance direct
ed against the discharge of firearms
within the city limits.
1t is not to be supposed that reliance
can be placed upon the parents of the
children who are armed with these dead
ly weapons. Indeed, they are usually OBJ
tanned not only with the knowledge ana
assent, but usually through the direct
act of the parents. In the hands of a
boy they should be confscated at once
and the boy subjected to such punish
ment as would thoroughly deter him
from their use.
AS long as these weapons are being
sold in the public stores they win find
their way into the hands of thoughtless
boys and just such an occurrence as that
which will probably result in the loss
of the eyesight of an inoffensive and rep
utable citizen, may occur at any time.
ccmmendable disposition to prevent the
discharge of these weapons. The council
should really take the matter up and
adopt some provision against their sale
to children as well as a thoroughly Sc
we're ordinance directed against their dis
charge within the city limits. 1t is but
few days since a corresponding acct
dent occurred from the discharge of a
pistol on the public streets by a police
officer. The bullet in that case, as in
this, glanced from the object which it
first struck and entered the window of
one of the public Offices, seriously en-
dangering the lives of,its inmates.
It is not punishment so much as it is
prevention which is needed. Very little
good can come from the punishment of
the boy. in this case. He is an es-
Unable boy and apparently thoroughly
repentant but steps ought to be taken
at once by public authority to prevent
the possibility of recurrence of such an
accident.

For time it appeared as if the influence
of Minister Conger would be thrown in
the scale of foreign interference, and
that we would be united with European
nations in making the terms and condi-
lions of withdrawal the most burden
some possible for the Chinese. But such
a disposition was not sustained by the
state department.; and the country finds
itself now in a position to withdraw to-
tally from interference in Chinese affairs
with honor.
It is sorrowful, but none the less a fact,
that the relationship of the foreign pow
ers toward China, even in the light of the
recent avowed settlement, is one of the
raised mailed fist. Whether the fist will
be brought down on the sadly disfgured
and demoralized body of the Chinese COM
monwealth in our time must depend most
ly on the conduct of the Chinese imperial
authorities. The means Of avoiding its
weight lies with the empress dowager
now, as il has throughout, If that re-
calcitrant female will inaugurate the
most needful of the reforms necessary
to the opening of the heart of China to
the commerce of the Christian world, all
the moral authority which now lies be-
hind European aggression will soon dis
appear. and a new Japan be welcomed

CHINA STILL A TICr1M.

If the reading public is to accept the
current advices from China at their ap-
parent face value the situation in that
country is critical one. But the advices
from the East have so plainly been die
tated by special interests from time to
time and have been, wnen not utterly in
consistent so entirely inconsequent, as
to lead to the conviction that the author
misleading the world through the advices
which they permit to be sent out.
The statement as to the demand made
by the German authorities on Prince
Chun Is palpably false. 1t Is impossible
to believe that the ruler Of a great ma
ton would commit himself and his peo-
pie to the preparation of such foolish
indignities on the representative of
another power. The appearance of the
Chinese representative at Berlin to offer
public apology for the wrongs done by
the Chinese insurgents is in itself an ex-
preston of the most abject national SUBJ
lection which could be demanded. To
urge that in addition to that the repre-
sentative of the Chinese imperial author
ity would be asked to publicly debase
himself in the manner outlined in the
cable dispatches indicates that no in
fuence friendly to Germany has the
possession of the ear of the world at
this time.
In view of the singular state of things
which has been presented through press
foreign troops from China it would be
wrong to assume that anything like a
permanent basis for an enduring settle
ment has been reached. 1t is fairly illus
trative of the misleading character of
current advices that in the latest dis
patches the two announcements appear
concurrently, that the British authorities
in China have called for additional
troops. and that the Chinese court has
entered upon its return to Pekin. Serious
complications will without doubt appear
Just as early as an agreement on any
Uniform policy of aggression can be
reached among the powers
The present position of the American
government toward the Chinese imperial
authorities ard toward the welfare of
the Chinese people is one of which all
Americans have reason to be proud. The
administration has rot deviated through
out from the true position of non-inter-
ference. save where absolutely necessary
for tae protection OF American interests.

on the Increase.
NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-The prevailing
anti-German feeling in Russia, says the
St Petersburg correspondent of the
Times. has greatly increased since the
proposed new German tariff has been
made public. This is particularly true
of Poland where, even under normal
conditions, great racial animosity exists
between the Teutonic and SlaV elements
of the population.
In any case, it seems certain that the
Russian government shortly will take
steps to prevent the immigration of Ger
mans into Russian Poland. There are
at present, according to official figures,
no fewer than 100000 foreigners in the
province of Warsaw of whom 50 per
cent are Germans According to the
same figures, 1889 foreigners, the ma
jority OF whom are Germans, own real
estate In the province. The total value of
this real estate in the hands of foreign
ers Is coo roubles. The numerous
industrial establishments in the province
OF Warsaw are now nearly all in the
possession of Germans. As the wealth
of the rich district of Warsaw is thus
controlled by the Emperor's subjects, it
Is easy to foresee what will happen in
the event of a Russo German war The
German problem in Poland is certainly
the Russian government will be called
upon to solve in the near future.
The new German tariff bill is principal
ly directed against Russia. The int
portation of Russian wheat into Germany
was particularly disastrous to the agra
rians. By excluding Russian cereals,
blow to Russian agricultural interests.
But the German manufacturers will pay
dearly for the triumph of the agrarians.
