SUNDAY, MARCH 4, 190J. THE MORNING ASTORIAN. ASTORIA. OREGON. 4 FOREIGN PREJUDICE Not Caused By Boycott But By Racial Hatred. CHINA FOR THE CHINESE Poycott Stated to be More Imaginary Than Real Millions of Orieunls ' in Interior Cities Not Reichcd ' by Boycott Proclamation. f CHICAO.O, March 3.-A dispatch to fue Tribune from Washington, IX C, ays: Neither the boycott iu China nor the lat-k of n efficient eon-ular sen ice ia entirely responsible for thi failure of 'American trade in the Orient to reach the proportions to which it is fairly entitled. The consular bill may op may not go through Congres-a, the present outlook being unfavorable. The boycott is more imaginary thin real, according to reports received. Thai is to ay millions of Chine in the interior cities are not reached by any boycott proclamation. There is a feel ing against foreigners, that U directed today towards America, tomorrow to wards Germany, later on against Eng land and last of all, Japan will be reached. This is merely a feeling, how ever, of a desire to build up China for itself. The failure of American trade to in crease as rapidly as it should do i do dared to be the fault cf American mer chants who have not yet discovered that they must adapt their methods of manu facture and sale to the market they are looking after. Some extraordinary re ports have been sent in the department of commerce and labor, going to show that much of the supposed anirno-ity displayed by the Chinese against Ameri can goods is caused by the persistence of our manufacturers in refusing to study the Chinese market and to make themselves acquainted with the Orient al mind.
