The following is the leading editor
ial of the Hongkong Daily Press Of Oc-
tober q:
A very verbose revolutionary mani
festo, translation of which would
occupy nearly whole page Of the
Daily Press, has come under our no
tice. 1t is remarkable for two things,
comparative moderation OF language
and absence Of aims. The publications
of Chinese rebels almost invariably
breathe blood and fire in every line,
but the present document, with one eX-
ception, contains nothing that could
not be equalled or surpassed from the
editorial columns of the Yellow Press
of England or the United States, and
in many respects comes in a bad Sec
Ond to the language of Limehouse or
the rawlings of Keir Hardie. For once,
the words of Chinese rebels are ex-
celled by their deeds; the manifesto
urges no worse violence than the
slaughter of a decrepit mandarinate,
and that, too, only as a penalty for
employing the military against the peo-
pie, and contains not a single word
against foreigners. But the compare
tive mildness of the language should
not blind us to the danger of the So
phistries it conveys. "Populus vult de-
Cipi" is far more true in China titan
in Europe, and it would be unwise to
minimize the dangerous effect some of
the specious arguments may have on
the mind of an Oriental who is not
accustomed to guide his life by the
stern rules of logic, but who knows
that his taxes are increasing every
year, that his money has been taken
for railway construction and vanished
into the capacious pockets of success
sive viceroys and directors, and that
the constitutional measures that have
been inaugurated have produced no
solid fruit, but only increased eXpen-
Citure. Even more remarkable, though,
is the entire absence OF definite OBJ
jective right throughout the pamphlet.
No hint is given of the ultimate aim
of the revolutionary party, nor of the
purpose for which the men of the EN-
pire are called upon to throw in their
lot with them. The present Govern

PHILIPPINE NEWS BUDGET
BY THE SHINYO MARUS MAIL

MANILA, October 3l.-The Cable
news-American OF the 26th inst, dis
played the following bulletin across
three columns:
Governor General W. Cameron
Forbes, who has been suffering from
dengue fever for the past two weeks.
and whose condition has been a
source of anxiety to his friends, has
developed pyelitis, better known as
inflammation of the kidneys. one OF
the governor generals kidneys has
become affected with this disease, ac-
cording to a diagnosis by DR.. Richard
Strong, his attending physician, who
stated last night that the chief eXecu-
tive had had a comfortable day AMI
was not worse than he was Wednes-
day morning.
"Pyelitis, while a serious complaint,
is by no means necessarily fatal, and
the attending physicians are of the
opinion that, although Mr.. Forbes is
at present a very sick man, careful
nursing and attendance, together with
the good constitution of the patient
and his fine condition, owing to the
clean life he has lived will soon eff.
feet his recovery. The governor gen.
eral is not suffering additional pain
as a consequence of being affected
with the kidney inflammation, al
though he has had the severe head
aches that usually attend dengue
fever.

ITEMS OF CHINESE REVOLUTION
FROM NEAR THE FOCUS OF WAR

Following are some interesting
items Of the Chinese revolution from
the Canton correspondence of the
Hongkong Daily Press, the letter be-
ing dated October %:
Viceroy MemoriaIizes the Throne.
Having the welfare of the nation and
the present dynasty at heart, Viceroy
Chang has memorialized the throne
concerning the present situation in
the Central Provinces. He first states
that the success of the revolutionists
has had the effect of making the
hearts of the people arm to the revo-
lutionary cause, and that consequently
the very existence of the present
regime is ieopardzed. He then urges
the throne not to interfere with the di-
rection of affairs of state, but to leave
the same to the care of capable and
responsible ministers. Taxation is
then mentioned. His eXcellency points
out that the people are grooming under
the weight of the taxes placed upon
them, and he suggests that for the
present, at all events, the modern in
novations and reforms costing so much
money should he stopped, and the
taxes taken off. He then earnestly
begs the emperor to issue proclama'
ton to the whole people laying the
blame for the present situation on him
self and promising to call together a
national assembly or parliament next
year. By these methods the yiceroy
hopes that the allegiance of the peo'
pie to the throne will be restored and
the empire be once more at peace.
It is said that the wording Of this me-
mortal is very strong.
Treating the Troops,
The viceroy recognizes that at all
hazards the loyalty of the troops here
must be maintained, and he is doing
all in his power to create a good feel
ing between the men and the govern
ment Yesterday dispatches were sent
to the officers in comand Of the vari-
Gus regiments to furnish the number
of men i'm each regiment and take a
report of this number to the treasury,

over a sum of money to be spent in

NIB. sPALpINe,s OPINION.

Under the heading Slams at U. S.
Men Hurting Honolulu" the Bulletin
printed the following in large type
yesterday;
Il regard as extremely unfortunate
the harsh criticism that has been made
of the army doctors and the marine
hospital service. The batting of the
officials in this manner is neither good
taste nor good policy Oahu is quar-
tering large bodies of troops and the
derogatory terms used in criticising
the United States officers, medical or
otherwise, can not but be taken cog
nizance of elsewhere, which will not
be of advantage to Honolulu.
q hope that everything possible will
be done to show the United States
representatives that the sentiments
expressed in this criticism are those
of only very small per cent of the
community and not to be taken as
the general feeling in any way.
The sanitation campaign is being
conducted with due regard for the COM
mercial banana plantations. So long
as the people in charge do not cut
down the commercial plantations, the
other banana trees that come down are
of comparatively little value. believe
the campaign is being conducted with
consideration and moderation. E. l..

Since the news of the rebel sue
cesses in the Hupeh province reached
this province the robbers in the coun-
try districts have b. come bolder and
in many places people are living in
terror of their lives. Nearly all these
robber gangs pretend to be revolutions

are more or less anti-dynastic in char
acter So serious has the situation
caused by these rascals become that
there are not wanting those who con-
slider the safety of Canton itself to
be imperilled by the presence of these
robber bands on the outskirts of the
city. A meeting of the principal in
habitants is to be held today in the
Man Lam Shit Yuen to discuss means
for protecting the city and preserving
the public peace.
To Guard the Treasury
In the great street known as Sheng
Moon Tai is the South Gate, on the
top of which is a pagoda-lke structure
known as Kung PAX Lau. This tower
commands a fine view OF the city and
especially of the provincial treasury,
which is close at hand 1t is the de-
sire of General Lung to garrison this
lau with a company of soldiers who
may keep watch day and night on the
treasury. Nearly all the shops in this
street, however, have erected awnings
/ and wind shoots of mating, thus OBJ
structing the view. The general or
dered the immediate removal of these
structures, but at a meeting of the
Kai-fong it was resolved to resist this
demand and to let the awnings remain
where they are. The general is now
