CHESLEY PROMISES

Sporting Editor THE EVENING
JOURNAL,
At last the Chesley has given the
hammering st. Aloysius team a chance
to measure up to its boastful attitude.
and another try at a championship
series, which they hardly deserve.
In reply to Chesley's playing such a
soft team as Olivet, / wish to state
that Olivet put up a better game
against Chesley than St Aloysius ever
has or probably will St. Aloysius is
as soft a team as Chesley ever play
ed and they are going to prove this
in the coming series. II st. Aloysius
does not pad. Chesley is confident that
it can more than hold it's own.
Today Chesley will play Bellevue.
Then the big series will be pulled of

A CHALMERS TRIUMPH.
New Thirty.six is Finest Product of
Great Factory.

Great Factory.
The model Thirty-six represents
Hugh Chalmers highest effort in the
production of the ideal medium-priced
car.

both of design and finish, marks a
great advance in the production of a
large powerful automobile at a me-
dium price.
That Mr.. Chalmers has the right
idea is evidenced by the business done
by his company since the announce
ment of the 1912 models. The Chal-
mers company reports an increase IN
business over the same period in the
1911 season Of 122 per cent, a de-
mand which keeps the factory work
ing day and night.
Mr.. Chalmers predicts that 1912 will
be the biggest season in the history
of the automobile industry for all
manufacturers of standard cars.

promise agreed to favor an increase OF taxes
provided that their wishes were granted as 10
civil guards and the premier.
The first really national and representative
body that ever met in China under authority OF
an imperial edict convened on Oct, 8, 1910. IL
has been variously called senate, an advisory
assembly and a provisional parliament; the last
appellation seems most appropriate, as the body
had no legislative powers, its functions being
confined to petitions and reports to the throne
on matters pertaining to the formation OF nsti-
tutions and enactment of laws in accord with the
age.
The parliament proved to be able, indepen-
dent body, equal to the situation broad-minded
in its views. and realizing its responsibilities.
Rarely does single act mark the upward turn
OF decadent nation, but in China it was the
signing by the emperor KouangSu. July 26. 1S9S
Of the edct on the liberty OF the press, drawn
up by the ardent reformer Yang You-Wei.
Reciting the various needs of railways the i'm.
perial edict of May 3, 1911 points out that for
years the emperor has fostered local railway
projects but that hitherto the Chinese companies
have maladministered affairs that they are In
inextrcable confusion; they have built neither
main lines nor branches. In the Province of
Kuantong they have issued bonds covering half
the work, while the railroad has hardly been COM
menced. In Sze-Chuan enormous sum- in
trusted as bonds to bank, has been lost by fail

sums have been spent uselessly in past years"
II should be said that Canton which had made

ed the naturalization. The Importance and grav.
ity OF the action Of assemblies and local organiza.
tions in Sze-Chuan and Hounan may be estimated
from the fact that their combined population
quite considerably exceeds that of the United
States, and is about onefourth of that Of China
The action of the imperial government has been
described by Chinese writer as "a truly unex.
pected and unfavorable blow to provincial auton.
omy." An early successful issue in SzeCbual
will be welcome evidence OF that central, co
ordinated power which is vitally essential to the
future utility OF the Chinese Empire.

formed its first budget, has initiated a system OF
imperial taxation, reorganized its postal and tele-
graph services. and nationalized its railways.
Abroad Its statesmen have brought to head
the Mongolian question, maintained the status

signs of efficient activity by its participation in

The foreign policy OF China promises to be In
sstent, and perhaps aggressive, where the in
terests OF its subjects are concerned. Especially
significant is It's late reported demand on Mexico
for adequate indemnity. amounting to tens Of
millions OF dollars for the massacre and destruc-
ton OF the persons and property OF Chinese by
the Mexican revolutionists.
Perhaps the most impressive action OF all Is
the regard for aliens within its own borders
shown in recent days by the Chinese government.
Confronted by n most serious Gin appearance, at
least revolution in its greatest province (Sze-
Chuan, with It's S0000.000 OF people), the govern
ment on It's own motion takes early and efficient
measures OF preserve the lives OF foreign mission

Tientsin. Hankau. Shanghai Chungking Fuchau

by the emperor, govern the provinces
with practically unlimited power,
which in the past has often resulted
in unbridled corruption and tyran-
nical oppression. Under the edict OF
Nov. 6, 1906, for the reformation OF
local governments, provincial assem-
blies were established. Their func.
tions were advisory, and the admins
trative powers remained entirely In
the hands Of the vice-regal officials.

conditions, but the contrary result Is
usual. In an exceptional case the
provincial assembly Of Kuang-Si pass

The assemblies have taken con
certed action to extent their influence

sionally attempted to coerce the i'm

different results. Twice the Assem-
blies have held congresses in Peking
