CHINESE FAMILY SKELETON.
The present disturbance In China
brings out much of Interest concerning
the Celestials which, while matters of
history, are not as widely known as
they might be. One important feature
which has been brought into con
siderable prominence of late is the
fact that China has a race question of
her own, and It will be Interesting to
see whether It has any effect upon
the course of the present revolution.
In reading the .dispatches concerning
Pekin we come upon occasional refer
ences to the Tartar city as distinguish
ed from the Chinese city, the terms
thus employed Indicating the race di
visions. The Tartar city Is a city of
conquerors and rulers, the Chinese city
a city of their hereditary subjects, and
so throughout the empire there are
Tartars in command and Chinese in
submission. '
The final subjugation by the Man
chus dates about the middle of the
seventeenth century, when the present
royal dynasty was established. There
were marked differences between in
vaders and invaded as regards their
physical characteristics, their customs
and their costumes, and although some
of these differences have been eliminat
ed or modified others remain undis
turbed. There has ben so little of In
termarriage between the . two races
that the race types of feature are
plainly distinguishable. The Chinese
Is finer and more intelligent-looking,
the Tartar of a heavier cast. Then,
too, although the Tartars agreed to
permit the Chinese to continue the
custom of binding the feet of women
they themselves never took up with
it, to that It Is a sign of separation.
But the shaven head and queue, which
are of Tartar origin, were imposed up-1
on the nation by the conquerors, and
are now common to all the people.
Still. It is said that the Tartars
have themselves been subdued. The
majority of them employ the Chinese
language In writing and speaking,
while It Is only at the court that Man-
chu Is used, and apparently not very
commonly even there. The Imperial
family, however, is of pure Manchu
blood, and tn times of discontent like
the present it is not unusual for the
Chinese to speculate on the possibil
ity of placing a Chinese sovereign up
on the throne.
Whether such a scheme is feasible or
not it Is certainly better to let them
work out their own domestic prob
lems. as ex-Minister Denby suggests,
than to folio the strangely un-Chris
tian advice of Bishop Earl Cranston,
who says that he would break all
treaties and shed any amount of blood
to impose Anglo-Saxon Christianity up
on the country. That kind of prose
lyting would be rather difficult among
40O.O0O.Oea people.
It is difficult sometimes not to be
come pessimistic as to the future of the
race. A few evenings since a young
couple were married in a Washington
town, and not content with keeping
their feelings within reasonable limits
a lot of enthusiastic acquaintances
serenaded them by firing guns loaded
with small shot at the house. These
demonstrations were not altogether ac
ceptable to the groom, who made an
axe the medium for expressing his
disapprobation. If this is to become
a common bridal custom it requires no
prophetic gift to foresee that the pres-
cnt large array of discouragement to
matrimony is going to be considerably
Increased.
JirSTICE TO PORTO RICO.
New York Tribune.
In the opinion of Judge Townsen
sustaining the levying of duties on
goods from Porto Rico are some sen
tences which ought to be studied by
the people who are fond, without
knowledge, of denouncing the admin
istratlon'a treatment of that island as
unjust. Ambng them is the declaim
tion: "It may be best for us not to
make lis citixens fully our cltliens
It way be more Just toward It not to
subject It to paying its share of taxa
tion. In the case of Porto K'.co, with
her tobacco and rum Industries, such
share would probably be out of all pro
portion to that paid by other districts
Unless we tax her for national pur
poses there Is no Just claim on her
part for the protection of the con
stitutionul provisions for uniform tax
ation."
It Is to be remembered that the Idea
of the constitution was to secure sub
stantial equality of taxation for a peo
pU living on substantially the same
plane of clvtllxation. They did not fore
see our controlling a country so differ
entiy situated that the imposition of
our domestic tax laws might be an un
bearable burden. Such they might be
for instance. In Porto Rico, where uni
form taxation for federal purposes
would take out of the island by inter
nai revenue imposts probably three
times the amount that is now raised
there by the tariff law to be expended
purely for local purposes. As it Is,
Porto r.ico Is not taxed at all for na
tional purposes, but congress, acting
as the local legislature of the island,
Just as it Is for the District of Co
lumbia and Alaska, has levied certain
imposts for domestic expenses Instead
of raising them by direct taxation. If
the opponents of that legislation were
right in their constitutional theories tt
would be wrong not to impose our in
ternal revenue taxes on Porto Rico for
federal purposes, but it would still be
constitutional to raise local funds in
addition, as congress is raising them.
So the constitution in Porto Rico would
simply mean grea'er burdens. Con
gress can exercise discretion as to the
means of local taxation of territory.
just as the state legislature can ex
ercise discretion between a land and
an Inheritance transfer tax in raising
siate revenues. The constitutional rule
of uniformity applies solely to levies
for federal purposes. Judge Townsend
remarks:
"That we have the power to govern
without the obligation of uniform tax
ation may be an unfamiliar proposi
tion, but it Is so because we have nev
er before had occasion to use the power
to the same extent. Toe constitution
makers may not have thought of it,
yet, as we bava seen, it is an In
cident of full sovereignty commonly
exercised at the time the Union was
formed one which Is now prohibited to
the state, and so must have passed
to the federal government with the
power to make war and treaties to
which it is Incident For the framers
of the constitution intended that in
strument not as a limitation upon the
rreedom or the new sovereign in act
ing for the state in foreign affairs;
not as a check to growth, but as the
organic law of a nation that can live
and grow. To deny this power to gov
ern territory at arm's length would be
to thwart that Intention to make the
United States an unfettered sovereign
in foreign affairs. For If we wage
war successfully we must some time
become, as many think we are now,
charged with territory which It would
oa the greatest folly to "ncorporate at
once Into our Union, making our laws
its laws, its citizens our citizens, our
taxes its taxes, and which, on the other
hand, international considerations and
the sense of our responsibility to Its
inhabitants may forbid us to aban
don."
This sets forth clearly the fl!!mma
of those who proclaim the old Calhoun
doctrine of the limits of federal pow
er. It shows how. if they are right.
we never can own a coaling station or
take limited possession of some savage
community to protect life and property
without completely absorbing It and Its
people into the United States. It makes
the protectorate which many of them
say we should offer the Filipinos Im
possible, and gives us only the alter
native of abandoning them entirely to
anarchy or immediately making them
American citizens. It may even be
questioned on that theory if Cuba Is
not part of the United States, for its
status otherwise is purely a matter of
treaty, and so far as foreign nations
are concerned it is absolutely subject
to the United States. Unless this gov-
