No Parties in China.


There are no parties in China: The
throne and its occupant. whether man or
woman, are supreme. All are below, and
conservative. but there is no conservative
party. He may be a liberal or progressive,
but there is no liberal party. There are
no newspapers for the masses. The Picking
Gazette which is the oldest journal in the
world, Is an official publication, which con-
tains nothing but such memorials, rescripts
and edicts as the government chooses to
make public to the official classes and lit
craft, and hence it is almost impossible to
establish liberal propaganda. New ideas
are looked upon askance and travel but
slowly. An official of progressive views is
sure to be regarded with suspicion, how
ever powerful he may be. and the higher
the place he holds the more certain It Is
that some one who would like to supersede
him will keep constantly on his track in
hopes of catching him tripping. In spite
