CHINA'S NEW PRESIDENT.

IT is a good omen that China has
votiOn TO liberty who has for years
put his life If jeopardy fghting for
the policies which are now TO be put
into practice in that country. IRE
sponslble, stupid and cruel government
is 70 give way TO a Republic, and it is
fortunate that the first chief executive
is a man who has demonstrated his
courage and his fitness. Or. Sun Vat
Sen is no accident and does not take
the reins Of government because he
wishes a great honor. He is called to
leadership because he was the inSpira-
ton Of the revolution and the martyr
Tor lis convictions.
Or. Sun Vat Sen was born in Cam
ton, educated at Honolulu, where his
father was in business, later studied
medicine at Canton and made reputa-
lion in his native city as a physician.
For years he has been a leader in the
revolutionary movements looking to
Inc expulsion of the Manchus. In
1895 he was one of the leaders in a
plot TO seize the city of canton. Their
plans were discovered, most Of the
consplrators put to death, but DR.. Sen
escaped and reached the British col
ony at Hong Kong, where he became
a British subject. He was heard OF
next in England and the United States
whore he delivered a series Of lectures
in the desire of converting the Chinese
students to revolutionary principles
When he was on q lecture tour lT
England in 1900 he was enticed into
the Chinese legation, where he wa:
told hat he was on Chinese territor,
and wOuld be deported to Picking
This, however. was prevented, as b
claimed British citizenship. and he wa
set free. At a later period he visite'
Japan and stirred up the Chimes
there to revolutionary ideas. He ais
resided for some time at Singapore
where he was surrounded by a body
guard OF Observation-Disclosures. II
visited New York in April this year
and spoke, there against the Manch,
dynasty.
This is the history of China's frs
President He has won a victory 70
his principles n the whole worl
will watch to see whether he ca
mould China into a real Republic. ]
is composed Of SO many different pee
pies speaking a varied language tha
n~-Republic like the United States woul
seem to be the only possible govern
nent for them. The separate pro,
iDces can retain their local govern
Inent or select one to suit them witt
out feeling the weight Of the FEEDER
administration, While all national a
fairs will be controlled by DR.. Sen an
the Congress made after the America
e pattern. Great Britain and Japa
opposed a republic and feared tt
Chinese were not Yet II

United States was more powerful thu
the fears of these two mOnarchies. II
world will watch the experiment

be as successful in constructive state

be in leading the revolutionists again

BRETHREN.

This Is the last editorial line that
will be penned for the readers of this
paper in the expiring year Of 1911.
The biggest and most important
policy for North Cardinals welfare
hat this paper had advocated and
stressed is the policy of changing the
work done by convicts in the State.
They should be taken from raising
cotton n peanuts and building
railroads. and under the direction Of
the right sort Of Highway Commits
sion be put to making public roads
and keeping them in repair. This
proposition a met with wide and
general approval and its advocacy
will be continued in this ~paper~until
it is adopted and put in operation.
The following letter from the presi-
dent Of the Greensboro Chamber Of
Commerce gives proof of the wisdom
OF making good roads:
Greensboro. n. c., Dec. %, 1911.

ton and hearty approval your edi-

structed throughout the State during
the next few years by usino the con-

Il believe nothing else Will be Of
greater benefit to the State. In addi-
ton to reducing our tremendous
mud tax it will advertise US to the
world as prosressiVes.

roads was nine million dollars. now
it is more than twenty-five millions.
with no increase in the tax rate but
a Very large increase in the earning

Of North Carolina to ave them.

OF the past was al right and credit
able, and the administration Of Mr..
Laughinghouse is especially to be
commended. but this is a good roads

should start in promptly and receive
