THE GAZETTE. FRIDAY, JULY 6, 1900. CHINA'S PARTITION. The question, Will China be divided? is the issue which the war with that country brines to the front, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. In a large de gree the answer to this lies with our nation. The report that the United States has been asked to join with the European powers in the partition, and to signify what part of China it would ask as its own portion, is probably not correct. There is not the slightest doubt, however, that the only thing which stands in the way of China's partition at the present moment is the con sent of the United States. It is easy to see that the Chinese Gov ernment is dexterously playing into the hands of the enemies of its country. Its resistance to the American and European sail ors in China, who are there for the purpose of protect ing their own citizens, will putt the world against it. and hasten the day when, unless the reform influences begin soon to assert themselves, the division of that country has to come as a meas ure of protection to civilization The only barrier which stands between China and division at the present moment is the eon sent of the United States. China's own acts are making the position of the American Government as her defender against spoliation more and more difficult. Her troops arc fight ing against the Americans, and some American lives have been lost in the warfare which is un der way. Much American prop erty has been destroyd. At the present moment half a dozen of the foremost nations of the world are 'arrayed against China. It is not the Boxers whom the United States, England, Russia, Germany and Prance are fighting at the present time, but the Chi nese Government itself. China'; authorities have taken the side of the recent rebels, against her government. This is the cir cumstance which makes the situation in China serious. The Boxers could easily be put down even by a small force of the in ternational army and navy which are on the ground, but the in tcrfcrence ot the Chinese Gov ernment in behalf of the reaction ary elements gives the sitnation an aspect for which none of the nations, with the exception of Russia seems to have been pre pared, or expected. This is the aspect of the Chi nese situation which has the greatest concern for the Ameri cana. The United States hat a decided interest in the rescue of her citizens who are imperiled, The lives of some of them prob ably have been lost already. But Chinese resistance will quickly be overcome in any case The Chinese officers who are re sponsible for the attacks on the foreign armies will be degraded, and some ef them may be exe cuted. The leaders of the Boxers will undoubtedly be exe cuted. The flags of the United States and of the other nations which are taking part in the trouble will float over Pekin. Then the divergence of senti ment between the United States and the other countries will come. This country simply wants the reform elements to be restored, and as in the case when the recent Emperor was in power. England will undoubt edly stand with the United States on this point Bat Eng land at the present moment has her hands tied, to some degree, in the South African trouble, and she will be unable to act with the same decision as on ordinary occasions. Most of the continental Eurepean nations will probably suggest division of the empire, and will be more than willing; to allow the United States a share of the territory as the price of her consent to the partition. On this point the position of this country may be stated with the utmost confi dence. The United States will neither enter into any alliances with the rest of the nations, nor will she accept any territory in China or any other part of Asia. The military aspect of the Chi nese problem, notwithstanding the dark. outlook which it has to day, will be soon settled. Than will come its purely political phases, and these will be much more delicate and difficult than the features which are at this moment at the front.
