pie are flocking to the revolutionary
movement, and begins to see its own
national weakness. The Imperial
government finds that it needs pow
err to protect it from this internal
movement and believes that Russia
will protect the dynasty by it's per-

DR.. Sun stated in answer to ques-
ton concerning his movements that
although he may not have actually
been in China, yet he was close by
| in Cochin-China-and directed his
representatives in aChina from there.
DR.. Sun moves mysteriously from
point to point, but is almost always in
constant touch with his lieutenants.
There is wonderful progress among
the people of China especially among
the scholarly Glass; he said. They
are the backbone of China. Former
1y they bitterly opposed any change in
China's political status. Then they
| weakened on this policy after seeing
the storm of unrest around them. No.
reform has hardly reached the I'm
perial government and never will.
That is hopeless. Instead the govern
ment has adopted more severe meas
| ures than ever.
1.-THE Chinese people are now arous-
ed to get rid of their Manchu conquer
ors.
1.-The affair of the Supao editors and
the writer's of the book (whose cover
is depicted above) which the Supao
editorially endorsed, has done wonders
in bringing this great matter before
the people. The book was written
by boy of II and was called The
Revolutionary Army An open Let
ter was also included in the work.
The Supao editors were arrested and
prosecuted and for the first time in
the history of China the government
appears in the courts as plaintiff
against some of the people as defend
ants. This is an advance over the
former custom when heads We're cut
off without trial.
1.-The two men who wrote the PAM
phlet surrendered to the police. The
whole matter was a good thing for our
movement. Twelve editions had been
published when it was suppressed and
it is now being published in Toxic
and distributed broadcast in China.
| There probably never We're such strong
words printed in China before.
There was an armed movement last
April and the revolutionists captured
| three towns. 1 was not with the rev.
| olutionists, but was close by.
I'VE now openly advocate revolution
advocating revolution, however, does
not mean armed revolution, whereas
| a year ago it was advocated quietly
EXTRACTS FROM THE BOOK.
The revolutionary book referred to
above is a queer affair. Last evening
a Chinese came in with the following
| translated extract, which shows the
general character of the work:
| In order to clean the soil of China
and educate its people to become Geo.
Washington, to save its soul from hell
: to heaven, we must sweep away the
! 1000 years old monarchical laws, get rid
| of the 1900 years old slavery-spirit, ex-
clude the 100000 animal-like manchus
from China and wash off the 260 years
old shameful insult. Huarrh! the high
est and giantic revolution huarrh!
| beautiful revolution huarrh. wonderful
revolution.
/ 1 viii start from the Great Wall up to
4 the mountain then down to the mouth
/ of Yang-tiz Kiang and lift to the Yell
| low River TO raise the banner of free
| DOM ring the bell of liberty and preach
| to my brothers and sisters of young
and old that we cannot void revolution
in China today if we want to get rid of
Manchu. If we want march with the
| world powers we cannot void the revo-
| luton II we want to struggle for life
| in the twentieth century we cannot void
| the revolution. If we want our believe
| country to be a powerful nation on the
| face of this earth, we cannot void the
revolution.
Revolution is law of progressive, the
will of God. the right of mankind, and
| the necessity of transit in struggling
for life of a nation.
