P|TTSbURG BISHOP
 REFLECTS BETTER
 DAYS FOR CHINESE
China Becomes More Self Assertive and Aggressive Since Washington Con-
 ference, Is Belief
By Associated Press

Chicago. June 3.--China is becom- | ing more self-assertive and self-de- pendent since the early days of the Washington conference, says Bishop Francis J. Mcconnell, resident bishop of Pittsburg of the Methodist
 Episcopal church, who has been vis- 1 iting in China recently.
 Bishop Mcconnell Is a member of the educational commission of the
 missions board of America and Great | Britain who were sent to China six
 months ago. His statement was made
 public by a committee on conserva tion and advance of the Methodist church here.
 There are sure signs of the stir rings of Chinese public opinion and of Chinese national sentiment in ad- | vance of anything yet observed
 there" the bishop said. Speaking of the relations of the Japanese and Chinese. Bishop McCon- neN said: "The Japanese have made one notable failure and that is they have failed to make a friend of China. One does not have to be in a Chinese city long to note the inten- sity of the enmity of the Chinese toward the Japanese. He Is utterly blind who rates this enmity as of no practical consequence in view of Japanese superiority in arms. Become Independent "The Chinese have found in the boycott a powerful weapon. With consummate genius for non-co- opera tion and passive resistance. China can free herself from all outside in- fluence which she chooses to ban when the time comes. And the time is coming soon in the years just ahead when China will inevitably come to self-assertive, self-respect- ing independence of foreign nations. This is plain-as>day fact that stroller on Chinese streets cannot miss.
 .I do not think there is danger of another Boxer uprising. At least if there Is such a rising the weapons used will not be swords and guns"
 Bishop Mcconnell said that tho presence of an ever growing liberal sentiment--not necessarily a liberal party-in Japan is not myth. If Japan does not embark upon a career of imperialistic conquest of China in the next 10 years 1t is not likely that she ever will" he declared. By 1882 the democratic forces Mill probably be, If not irresistible at least so ef- fective as to make it impossible for war plans to be carried through in the old high-handed fashion"

THE TWO STRIKES.

The coal strike and the railroad strike seem to be no
fearer settlement than at the beginning only the own
ers Of the railroads and mines and the workers VIE
concerned it would not matter much, they could wait
their own time to settle their dispute but the general pub
lie has no voice in the matter.
But if thev have no voice in the settlement Of the
strikes the public has rights which should be respected
AS in most disputes the wrong largely on both parties
Neither can show clean hands, The mine owners have
been accused of proteering all along the line, and the
miners have been getting big wages and doing as little
work as possible.
The railroads have been charging the highest rates
that the public would stand and the rail workers have been
compelling the roads to accept rules that destroy effect
veness in their work Rules that require many more men
to perform given task than was necessary
It is hard to determine just what should be done in
the natter but neither the mine operator and railroads.
nor the miners and railroad workers should be allowed to
bring about conditions that parayes business and causes
suffering to the people.
If the warning interests will not mutually concade
sonehn an come to terms the government should take
the wIo business over and take the power to disturb
from the men who will not agree.
