Fire Follows Escaping Members.

The members in a body rushed TO the
opposite door Of the hall when the firing
began, tumbling over chairs and tables
In their haste. From the door they
streamed across the compound and
scrambled over the wall. while the male
factors maintained a murderous fire upon
them from behind. Within a few seconds
the hall was emptied, excepting for the
wounded, who lay hidden in the debris,
fearful Of further consequences. The
visitors now, however. appeared to have
attained their object, for they ran out OF
the building and disappeared through the
gate into the city.
No explanation Of this extraordinary in
cident is forthcoming. A fortnight after
the event the assailants are all at large.
although a tempting reward has been Of
fered for their capture. 1t has been
stated that the whole affair was en-
gineered by the tutuh, with the object
of getting rid OF an assembly which
hampered his administration. That. how
ever, is a mistake. as the relations be-
tween the tutuh, a connection of Yuan
Shihkais. and the assembly were eN-
cellent, while there were no points OF
difference between them at the moment.
The members We're nearly all old-fashioned
Chinese, who have never been revolu-
tionaries in an active sense. The as
sailants used heavy, old-fashioned six
chambered revolverS of large caliber, and
did not succeed in killing anybody.

Parliamentary Life in the New

ri0uS Matter.
Jurisprudence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
PEKING, August 10. 1912.
Parliamentary life in China Is no joke.
as may be judged from the recent ex-
perience Of the members of the provin,
cial assembly of Honan. This body was
engaged in peaceful deliberations one
morning when the hall was suddenly en-
tered by a band of miscreants. who I'M
mediately opened an indiscriminate re-
yolver fire upon the members. The story,
as told by a recent arrival from kaifeng.
the capital of the province. and the scene
of the occurrence. constitutes remark
able commentary upon the situation in
China at the present time. where. IN
the midst of the extreme orderliness
which is characteristic OF the country,
there can arise violent storms that pass
almost as quickly as they appear.
The assembly buildings at Kaifeng are
situated in a large compound in COM
paratively populous part of the city. Tho
hall where the members sit Is rectangu-
lar the seats being arranged lengthwise,
facing the rostrum occupied by the presl-
dent, or speaker. Access Is obtained by
doors at each end. More than seventy
members were present on the morning
in question, when five men entered ona
of the doors and opened fire with revolt
vers, emptying their weapons. apparently.
blindly into the mass OF seated figures.
The president only was particularly hred
at. He dropped below his desk. escaping
by a miracle, as the admirable pattern or
bullet marks on the white wall In line

HELplNe THE CROP MOVEMENT.

The idea of the treasury depart ment taking a hand in the loosen1ng of the tight money market, as report ed from Washington, for the benett or the farmers and aiding i'' moving their crops, is a good suggestion and one which should result in great amount of good. Fully appreclatlng the fact that the banks in the farming sections will be hard pressed for mon ev it is planned to distribute from s25, ,00O.0 GOO to 0,000,000 among them. With a good sized working balance In the treasury the department can do this without trouble and prevent Iur- ther stringency in the money market. While the banks might be able to take care of this demand. yet at the same time this money lying idle cannot be put to better use and 1t will prevent any strain on their resc urces.
 It would not be the first time mat such action has been taken. Govern ment funds have been let out on va rious occasions in the interest of bus- mess. and it has always had bene- ficial result. The consideration that the money belongs to the people and that it should be used for the time being where it will do the most good to the people is a consistent decision. A tight money market indicates good conditions, but the farmers can ap- preciate the benefit of not being held up by higher rates just because they happen to have a big crop to dispose nf

sEsr RESULTS WITHIN PARTY.

The position taken by Col. Frederick Hale of Maine in regard to the sup port of the republican party reflects the attitude of many who represent the element of the republican party who are looking for results in their stand for progress. Colonel Hale sees no need of third party and will stand for the continuance of the present ad- mintstration. believing that through the republican party the changes de- sired can and should be secured. Col onel Hale's position is thus presented. when he says:
 T consider myself as progressive as the members of the new party. I be- lieved in the spring, when I supported Colonel Roosevelt for the republican nomination for president. that the re- publican party needed to be more pro- Kressive and believe so still. but I differ from many in that believe that this change can best be wrought through the republican party itself"
 This is the very ground which many other leaders of prominence have taken and 1t is the only safe position in sup port of the principles upon which the welfare and prosperity of the country depend. Maine has shown what havoc is liable to result from a split in the party, and what can be done by stand- ing together. A republican. though he may consider himself stronger pro- gressive than others. knows the dan ger of free trade and the terrible eff feet it would have upon the industries and the workingmen. This can un- questionably be overcome by present. ing united front to the common ene- my, the democrats, and just such ac- ton as that by, Colonel Hale is being reported throughout. the country.

Situation at Leonard Bridoe.

Mrs. Editor, The postoffice of & community has it's own peculiar boun- dary determining its patronage and is supposed to be it's Illuminating center. around which are radiated the enter prises of it's constitution of affiliative associations. Especially so in all ru- ral routes, as it is the leading feature of the three public institutions of which the schoolhouse and church have their minor importance so far as patronage is concerned in their daily influence.
 The pOstoffices of a nation are of sufficient importance as to have as stunned an architectural character throughout the entire globe, and that individual in type to be recognized by the travelling public. To be sure there are here and there instances of de- parture from this set rule of char acter expressions; but now that ex- preSsive of delight to the critic as to emphasize it as coming type of pop ularity as a domestic occupation.
 The greatest grotesque anomaly along the line of departure in postoffice architecture can now be found if one goes quick at the head of rural route No. 1 at Leonard Bridge, Conn.,, where there has recently been such radical change in it's public business centers, contingent upon the exit of the lead ing first families of the large and pop- nlar F. n. Route No. 1.

BE READY FOR CANAL TRADE.

It is a timely warning which Direc- tor General John Barrett of the Pan- American union sounds as to the need of this country realizing the import ance of being prepared for the trade which will be opened up when the Panama canal is put into rse. A care ful study of the conditions in other countries in comparison with this, showed that much energy must be ex- erted here to keep up with the plans which other countries are making to gather in the trade with Latin-Amer- ican countries. Foreign ship yards being run to capacity and steamship companies preparing to engage in the trade. with governmental investiga- tions under way as to business oppor- tunities are all important factors in showing that Great Britain, France, Germany Austria, Holland. Belgium, Australia and Japan are all planning to get their share.
 The fact that the foreign market is anticipating much increased trade does not indicate that this country will not get it's share. but it requires time to get ready for it and the inn portance of being prepared to take care of it. and handle it cannot be too strongly urged. With the country looking to build up and extend it's for eign trade there is no better chance than with the South and Central American republics. This is their nat ural buying place, but with all the world straining every nerve for it, the call to hustle should be sufficient to this country and its business interests to arouse them to the necessary ac- ton.
