GOLD AND RIFLES PUT CHINA . , UNDER YOKE OF FOREIGNERS # t j

Editor's Note: This is the second of three articles analyzing the situation in China, written bj’ Rodney Dut.-hcr, Washington correspondent for NKA Service and The Times. The third will appear tomorrow. By Rodney Dntrlier \KA. Service Writer WASHINGTON. Jan. 31.—The world powers obtained their concessions and treaty right in China partly by force and partly by bribery. The susceptibility of Chinese officials to bribery has long been notorious. There has never been any adequate check to such practices and graft has permeated the whole system of Chinese government, both at Peking and in the capitals of the provinces. If the Cantonese Nationalists come to control the country anew order of things may be expected. The first attempt on the part of a western power to establish relations with China was made by Queen Elizabeth, who sent a vessel In 1596, which did not arrive. The East India Company later established a trading base at Canton and Lord Macartney established an embassy In 1793 during the reign of Emperor Keen Lung. Lord Amherst, the second ambassador, was greeted insolently, however, and sent back home with an Insulting letter, because he refused to bow his head nine times to the ground before the emperor. BritlPh an'inosity was aroused and subsequent events led to a series of military and naval movements which established western domination. The Chines© were peace-loving, industrious and mercantile in spirit. They were poor soldiers, poorly equipped for fighting and lacking any martial tradition. Although they were courageous, they were subsequently slaughtered in great num hers by trained European units. Despite their weakness, at the beginning of the western invasion, the Chinese were arrogant. Englishmen and Frenchmen were regarded as barbarians. “Ail men under Heaven worship the emperor of China,” was a national motto. China had been the Athenian Greece of the cast, radiating culture and enlightenment all about —to Japan, Corea. Siam, Annam, Burma and Tibet. No other sovereign could pretend any equality with the emperor and official documents described the British King as •“reverentially submissive.’ Foreign diplomats were regarded as late as 1850 as little more than dust under the feet of Chinese officials. Os course poor old China was riding for a falL Time came when the despised powers were kicking her all over the place. England began war in 1841, routing all forces which opposed her, and forcing the Chinese to sue for peace. The result was tho treaty of Nanking, by which the ports of Canton. Amoy, Fu-Chau, Ningpo and Shanghai were opened to British merchants, British obtained permanent possession of Hongkong and an indemnity of $21,000,000 was paid. In 1857 a Chinese refusal to apologize for seizing a Hongkong crew accused of piracy led to a declaration of war. The Chinese fleet was virtually wiped out and French and British troops took Canton. A treaty was then negotiated by which the British obtained more important concessions, but the French and English ambassadors were attacked while en route to Peking to ratify it and the allied forces marched into Peking, defeating Chinese armies on the way. The treaty was promptly ratified. British 'penetration was extended when "Chinese” Gordon was loaned to the Peking government to put down the Tae-Ping rebellion. In 1883 came the Franco-Chlnese war over French domination in Tonkin, and in 1894 Japan gave China a bad licking and seized Korea. China had to give up Formosa, pay Japan a largo indemnity and open up additional ports to foreign commerce. Two German missionaries were murdered in Shantung in 1897 and Germany took over Kiao-Chau. Subsequently Russia leased Port Arthur and GreflT Britain the Bay of Wei-hai-Wei. In 1900 Secretary of State Hay effected the “open door’ policy, which had as its object making China an open market for world commerce, establishing administrative reforms

and strengthening the integrity of the imperial government. But in tl:e same year came the Boxer uprising, which ended with another allied occupation of Peking and other cities. Indemnity for massacre of foreigners was fixed at $735,000,000, but the United States was later Instrumental in reducing this to $337,500,000.

A bill which would have given Poland $1,230 immediately and $125 per month thereafter for life was introduced by Representative James B. Brewster of Corydon and definitely postponed in the Indiana House of Representatives on recommendation of the Committee on Ways and Means. Poland now gets a small sum each months from the Governor's emergency fund under the compensation law.

Mr. Fixit is The Time*’ representative at the city hall. He will be glad to present your i age to the proper city officials Write him in earo ol Tho Timea. An abandoned automobile parked on the streets for five months with no lights on it is dangerous to traffic a motorist wrote Mr. Fixit today. The writer stated that police were notified, but done nothing about it. Here is the letter: Dear Mr. Fixit: An automobile has been parked at the northeast corner .of Kenwood Ave. and ThirtySecond St. for at least five months. As far as 1 know it is never used, and has no lights on it at night. It is very dangerous, as someone might not see it and a bad accident would result. There have been several smashups at this corner, all due to people trying to miss this machine. 1 wish that you would have Chief Johnson send a traffic man up hero and have the machine removed. A SOUTH SIDE MOTORIST. This complaint was turned over to police, who will investigate at once. Another person wrote Mr. Fixit and asked ‘that Indiana Ave. from Fall Creek to Montcalm St. be repaired. lie stated that the street was just one hole after anefther, and from the looks of it he thinks that the chuckholes will catch one another and the street will be just one big chuckhole. The letter: Dear Mr. Fixit: will start my letter as ustual. A you have done some mighty fine for the public out in the northwest part of the city, I am going to ask you to use your i influence and see if you can get some i street repair work done for me. Now ! that, that is over I am going to tell | you what I want. Indiana Ave. | from Fall Creek to Montcalm St., is ! just one chuck hole after another 1 and from the lo >ks of the street now | I think that they will catch each 1 other and the street will be just one ! big chuck hole. Will you please I see that this is fixed as we, in this 1 section, have to use this street to get i to our homes. A NORTHWEST MOTORIST. Street Commissioner George Woodward, said he was well acquainted with the situation on Indiana Ave., hut did not think the street could be repaired. He stated that the best thing to do would be to present a formal petition to the | board of works asking that the ! street be resurfaced. lIOW TO SAY IT? MANCHESTER, England. Jan. 31.

This famous salts is made from tho acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been ustfd for years to help flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to help neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder disorders.
