McKInley's Policy Approved.
The nation may well feel proud of
President McKinley'a action in the
recent appalling crisis that threatened
berious complications in China. There
is no yell of "imperialism" from the
yellow press anent the policy of the
Administration in the Chinese situa
tion, and the President's announce
ment that the American Government
will oppose to the last the partition of
China until every resource of diplo
macy is exhausted has commanded
not only the admiration of the other
nations, but that of our own people at
home. This American policy differs
radically from that pursued by the
European governments. The Wash
ton Post says:
"Our diplomatic efforts to avert an
appalling tragedy, unparalleled in the
world's history, have been conducted
with tactful skill, patient forbearance
and lofty methods that have chal
lenged the admiration of Christendom.
Dealing directly and frankly with the
Chinese authorities, through Minister
Wu and our consuls in the Orient;
keeping cool and clear heads under
the most trying circumstances; un
moved by the outcries of the hysteri
cal press, President McKinley and
Secretary Hay have made a record in
this unhappy affair of which the na
tion may well feel proud. The v Udom
of each succeeding step taken by the
State. Department has been speedily
established. All Europe has had its
first pews from Washington, from time
to time, of development in the im
portant diplomatic negotiatations pre
liminary to the rescue.
"Senator Thurston, who is in Wash
ington, said: 4 1 am filled with ad
miration, as every American must be,
with the attitude of the Administra
tion in the handling of this momentu
ou9 question. It has been splendid.
We have literally set the pace for the
powers. The President's foreign
policy has been admirable. True .to
our original purpose, we have pushed
on to Pekin and rescued our Minister,
and have been perfectly fair to the
Chinese, without a thought of enter
ing into a war of conquest or of re
venge
per year, and the publication should
find a hearty welcome in every home
ic the three great states of the North
west. "The Examiner" and "The
Inland Empire" will be clubbed to
any subscriber at three dollars per
year, the two papers.
Colonel Bryan lias received another
"notification." The people of the United
States will give him final notification on
or about November 6, 1900, to the effect
that he can close up his political busi
ness, go home to Lincoln and live quietly
ever afterward.
Under Cleveland and free trade we
were borrowing money and going
deeply into debt. Under McKinley
and Protection we are loaning money
to England, and she is going deeper
into debt, while we are paying ofT out-debt.
Li Hung Chang is a prisoner on
board a ship and will be held until the
opening of negotiations between the
Allied Powers and China. When Li
Hung is released he should be beheaded
and told fo no and sin no more.
"The Inland Empire."
" The Inland Empire" is a new and
handsome 32 page publication just es
tablished at Walla Walla, Washing
ton, A. H. Harris, manager. Its
initial number, received at this office,
is emblazoned with a beautiful frontis
piece, and is filled with highly inter
esting matter. "The Inland Empire"
encroaches on no journalistic enter
prise in the Northwest; its field is
particularly its own the development
of Northwest resources assisting new
enterprises and the encouragement of
immigration. It would appear to
have a large field to work in Wash
ington, Oregon and Idaho. Its sub
scription price ie popular one dollar
