ernment De lps in First
Session of Senate
Throne Threatened With Revo.
Iution if There Is No Sur
render in Two Years

PEKING, Oct ga surprising re-
ernment. The imperial senate, not
three weeks old, has voted to memo
rialize the throne for the early opening
OF a general parliament This action
appears to indicate that the new SEN
ate will not be a submissive or mock
institution, but one with which the
grand council must reckon.
As far back as last June a formal
demand was made for the immediate
convocation of a national parliament,
the establishment Of which ad been
promised for the year 1915. An i'm
perial decree was then issued. refus-
ing the demand. which was adopted by
delegates to the provincial assemblies
and was supported by organizations of
merchants throughout the country.
PARTY AGAINST THRONE
The imperial senate no sooner as
sembled October than the provincial
delegation formed an opposition party
and arrayed themselves against the
throne. The question OF the parlia-
nent was brought up daily and the
demand was made that it have execu-
tive power.
The campaign eliminated yesterday
when impassioned speeches were made
in which il was pointed out that q
change was imperative for the saliva
tion of the country. This plea won
over a large majority
The Russo-Japanese agreement with
reference to the annexation Of oKrea
by Japan has been employed effectively
BY agitators and the press during the
last few months to create wave OF
patriotism, and this propaganda has
made considerable progress among the
Intelligent classes, the progressive
party now showing a strong front
against the united officials and the
Manchu army.
REGENT AGAINST CHANGE
II IS generally recognized. however,
that the prince regent is sincere IN his
desire that the best interests OF the
country be served, and hat he has re-
sisted the change only because he has
been advised TO do so by the venerable
grand councillors, who believe that the
country IS not prepared for so sweeping
q change and that the establishment OF
liberal institutions might result in q
calamity.
Following the action of the senate
there are intimations that many po-
litscsl leaders are determined TO obtain
their demands. In private converse
tioAs educated Chinese speak Of aarevo-
luton within two years unless the
throne surrenders. A factor IN the SIT
uation. however, is the garrison IN
Peking and army divisions stationed in
neighboring districts, which are all
Manchu. The Chinese troops are al
ways kept at a distance from the capt.

In this age Of specialties a
man cannot be a success follow
ing two vocations. He can't be

if he devotes a portion Of his

We devote our entire time and
attention to the Optical business.
We have made it a special study
