and we have found that, In u majority

wives were simply not able to cook or
would not, The men would come home
from their work tired and hungry, and
when they arrived would find their
wives just preparing slatternly 10 serve

"Thcre Is but one negro In congress
now, a man named White, who was

to say that he will be the last negro

His term expires this month. 1t is in

elected to either house or senate have

further interest to note that the Repub-

What Next In China (!
m the Washington Post.


Now that the allies have enforced
their demands for blood and vengeance
what next2 The fine old Mosaic law,
against which the life and teachings of
Christ were protest, and the repudia-
ton of which is the underlying principle
of Christianity-thi fine old law has
been revived for the glory of our super
Tor civilization. A number of the
Chinese nobility are to be decapitated,
some of the very highest rank are per-
mitted to kill themselves, and to this
list we may add the thousands Of "com-
mon persons of both sexes who have
been butchered, outraged, tortured,
mutilated and driven from their homes.
A comforting array, indeed And now,
what nextf
What about the money considerations
We have had blood enough to float a
ship, but can a grief like this be
soothed with blood alone2 Have not
our emotions cash value in additionG
Our attitude toward the Chinese is
purely speculative. We can sympathize
with and admire to the bottom of our
hearts such splendid patriots and heroes
rs the Beers. They have made against
England s barbarous invasion fight
which for gallantry and devotion has
no parallel in the history of the world,
with, the possible exception of that
made by their progenitors in Holland
against Spain 8 Kitchener, the Duke of
Alva. But the Chinese have made no
fight at all. They have not even at
tempted one. Even the half-clad tribes
of the Soudan did better with practical
ly no equipment at all. AS matter of
fact, they have not exhibited the small.
est sign of manhood and self-respect,
much less Of patriotic feeling, We
have no solicitude to waste on such
wretched creatures rs the Chinese have
shown themselves to be. We simply
make them the object Of philosophical
In that spirit, therefore we ask, what
nextY The executions have been or
dained the shambles wait, Christendom
will be RECALLED with the several heads
Of the benighted heather. And after
ward, what9 The money! Shylock |
was content with the pound of flesh in
lieu Of coin. We and our allies are less
accommodating. The question is not |
how much the powers would take for
that cannot be expressed in figures, but |
how much can be wrung and squeezed |
from China, We must consider that |
question, at least In this country where |
the sense of humor still survives. We
cannot gather figs from thistles We |
do not expect to find Il silk umbrella in
. ten-cent plate of soup. We must
limit our demands to the amount of

wa are seeking pretext for permanent
occupation, ask China for more than
she has or can beg, borrow or steal.
That would be farce, and we should |
be ridiculous, Either that, or II wonld !

way In which the allies could properly

THERE seem to be few papers in the
