TT is VERY DIRECT.

The American press is growing right
humorous over Yuan Shi Kai pres
ident of China, but let us, for the mo-
ment. study Pres Kai seriously.
Republics are born of revolution.
Following such births, there are.
usually. counter-revolutions At any
rate there are elements that will dc
all they they can TO make republican
ism a failure. Pres. Kai is chopping
off the heads of leading counter-rev-
Olutionists.
In our own revolution, We let the
Tories go about their business and had
to lick most Of them with the British
troops.
The Chinese republic surely re-
quires a lot of new and drastic legis-
lation. The national legislature will
not give it, and so Pres. Kai dis
misses some 800 recalcitrant members
of parliament and has his police cut
off the heads OF those Of them VINO
are afterward actively obstreperous.
It takes many months TO get rid OF
a crooked legislator or judge. and
ever afterward we have 10 be vigilant
lest he get back upon our pay roll.
Directness Is the difference between
Kafs ways and ours, and directness
is a strong characteristic of the
Chinese. For instance, IL is only
within comparatively recent years
that China knew anything about bank
ing. The fellow who borrowed and
didn't pay. or who robbed. had to die
and usually did. The Chinese policy
was to put bad people out of the way
so as to make more room for their
betters.
We are more humane and civilized
toward general offenders. But, in the
matter Of government officials. we viii
have a whole lot more Of failures than
does Kai Kai's operations may look
rather mOnarchial but he may really
only be taking the short, Chinese way
10 a genuine republic.

The Promise.

Mon dieu," said the general.
1t was six years later. AT the new
chateau not a blade of grass seemed
changed. The general stood in the
midst of cIose-cropped millions of
blades of grass as he stopped short
on the sloping lawn which led down
to the white stone steps which led to
the sunken garden. At each side of
the highest step lifted a carved stone
vase. blazing in the September after
nocn with scarlet geraniums. and
garlanded with vines. At the foot or
the steps stood two more vases. and
al each side of the graveled path RIB
boned with a long fiower-bed, at even
intervals OF 80 feet. another stately
pair of them.the gray stiff vases
splitting intoxicating brightness of red
flowers. They led the eye down line
TILL a hundred yards away, the line
broke into a circle where q sun-dial
set on a fantastic stone figure of a
satyr marked the center of grass
plot Massive stone seats held up by
carved crouching griffins faced each
other across the sun dial: on one of
these. in the sunny stiffness of the
garden, sat a girl and a young man.
Alike. in her riding-habit, with a
feather in her hat, and gauntled
gloves on her hands, was so lovely as
to be startling. She looked at the
ground. half shy, half laughing, and
beat the grass with her riding-whip.
Francois was leaning toward her and
talking. and the general, coming slow
ly down the lawn. felt a flood Of
pride rise in him as he looked at this
successful picture of a boy which he
had done so much to fashion. The
two had been riding together. and

WILSON PLEADS FOR
JURY REFORM BILL
Urges a Special Session If
Necessary, and Promises to
Speak in New Jersey.

Opposition to the passage of the jury
reform bill in New Jersey has aroused
President wilson's fighting blood. The
President today wrot Gov. James Field
cr letter in which he urged the pas
sage of the bill at this session of the
Legislature. advised the calling OF a
special session TO pass the bill IL 1t
fails during the present Legislature. and
said that "if you desire. might make
il possible. in between the regular and
special session. to come back and make
al least one address to the people"
The letter is the most urgent appeal
Pre- sident Wilson has yet made for The
passage of this bill. Without the meas
ure he believes the reforms of the last
two years will be unavailing.
Secretary of state Bryan left at 1880
today for Trenton to fill a speaking en-
gagement before the chamber of COM
merce, and while in Trenton he will
use his efforts to force the passage Of
the jury reform bill at this session. He
conferred with President Wilson early
this morning and took up the New Jer-
sey situation. in addition to other af-
fairs.
that it 10 absolutely necessary. not only
for the prestige of the party. but for
the vindication of the reforms we all
stand for. that the jury reform bill
should be put through in its integrity
wrote President Wilson. Nothing we
have done in the past two years will be
safe without 1t. I feel these things 30
deeply that / think it would be fatal
TO submit to any kind of defeat"
In threatening to take a hand in the
New Jersey legislative situation, Presi-
dent Wilson is probably going further
than a President has ever gone before
in interfering with State legislation.
Governor Fielder is a close friend of
the President, and will probably carry
out. without feeling that his province is
being encroached upon, the recommen-
dation of the President that special
session of the Legislature be called.
In threatening to go into New Jersey
with his coat Off and shirt sleeves roll
ed up for vigorous action President Will
son has set an interesting precedent. its
danger to State institutions depending
upon the personality of the man who
proposes such interference.
The situation may be cleared up be-
fore the present session closes. A con-
ference committee, representing the two
houses of the Legislature, is in almost
constant session. and a specially i'm
portant conference will be held Monday.
