China May Turn Backward
After 81 Years, the Celestial Empire
Threatens to Revert to COnfu-
ciRniSm; Ruse Suspected.


4 PROPOS Of the very recent dec
~ laratiOn by the Chinese govern
4 \ ment that Confucianism shall
be reinstated as the state religion OF
the republic, 1t may be Wen to re-
member that today is the Sltn ann
versary of the proclamation OF rellS-
ious freedom in the land of the c.
lestials.
ChinameR Worship Past.
When, in 1S77-a year that wei de-
serves to stand as an important one
in the mental evolution Of humanity
the imperial government issued the
decree establishing a free ana open
field for all religionists, the WhoLe
world stood, as it were, aghaSt with
wonder. The Chinaman is the prince
of conservatives. For all people the
past has more or less attraction, but
to the Chinanan it is a religion. he
worships the past, and in proportion
as its antiquity is increased the wor-
ship is intensified. Nowhere OUTSIDE
of the land of the Celestials is II pos
sible to match the Chinaman's rev
erence for ancient custom
Opposed Missionaries.
Hence the dogged perseverance with
which the Chinese set themselves
against the first missionaries to their
country. 1t was about 1517-a full
quarter of a century after the discoV-
cry of the New World-that Europ-
cans began to arrive in China, at
which time COnfucianism, the state re-
ligion, was q centuries old In the
face of such fact what hope had the
missionaries? you came to US" said
the priests Of Confucianism, with a
faith that was never heard Of until
today, and you want US to accept this
faith in place of the one that we have
known for more than 1000 years We
say to yOU-begOne"
Converts Were Outlaws.
Thus may we see how it was that
for more than three centuries the
feeling of the Chinese against the
Christian evangelists was so bitter.
Hard, indeed, was the lot Of the mis-
sionaries, and as for the Chinaman
who turned Christian. his existence
was the very refinement of wretched-
ness He was an outlaw. whose
rights none were bound to respect
and whose very life ceased to have
any sancity or protection in the eyes
of the law.
Therefore, when the imperial decree
of 1877 appeared, giving not only the
preachers the right to preach but the
natives the right to be preached to
and converted, the world did well to
wonder and to throw UP its hands in
utter Amusement
Is Republic to Back TrackFI
And now, after 81 years is China
China, the republic-going to take the
"back-track' and undo all that was
done by the empire? Or is the re-
cent action of the congress in rees-
tablishing Confucianuism as the state
religion merely a political move, with
out any reactiOnary significance so
far as religious liberty is concerned?

On a recent visit to chat thriving metropolis we were amazed at the great number of ruuabouts aud auto trucks woi king their odorous way through the crowded streets. But the autos were not the only excitement, nor has it become the only means of locomotion The first attraction was furnished by two long legged girls astride two long legged horses. Every eye followed them until they turned the corner. Horseback riding is also a favorite exercise iu Ju- neau among the young gentlemen whom the law has suddenly deprived of means of support. Autos are supp plemented by motorcycles, which emit much the same kind of perfume, Talk ing of odors, Che whole lower part of the city has the same smell; tits every where, you can't get away from it.
