To the Editor of the Nonrit-Citina Dau News!
Sm—Y, E. H's" naive letter of the 23rd ultimo about China's constant turmoil is sweetly pathetic in its simplicity of how to bring peace into China's midst. "If only China could get the extraterritoriality question settled half of her battle would be won, her present roubles and bloodshed would vanish 10 smoke." Dear "Y. E. H." how. T hate to tell you that you are only an idolist and that you are shutting. your eyes to your people's faults. There never will come into existence anything that would benefit your teeming masses as long as. the craving for gold and power hold the sway. When all such ambitions die, and bribery and corruption will no anger be the ruling spirite—a sence of shame will develop in your people's hearts, with realization that "squeeze" after all is another word! for dishonesty, and that the best of men do not stoop to it. When such feeling is in the majority, then, you can happily exclaim that your country's salvation is near at hand!
