Washington.-An important bulletin

The abolition OF the principle of

foreshadows the time when such com

CHINA'S NEW

The expected has happened and
Yuan Shi Kai, president OF China, has
agreed" to become its Emperor. There
may be some skepticism as to Yuan's
motives being disinterested and it is
notorious that elections" such as
recently held, are a mere farce, but
there can be little doubt of China's I'M
fitness for a republican form of gov
eminent at this time.
While the country is slowly but
surely realizing it's tremendous power
and responsibility, it is still the jelly
fish among nations. TIE ignorance
and Indifference of it's enormous popu-
lation make the form of government
by which they are ruled of little con-
sequence. 1t is no exaggeration to
say that there are doubtless millions
of Chinese who know nothing of what
is going on at Pekin, nor do they care
to find out. Under such conditions,
where the electorate" is more or less
mythical, China could only be a re-
public in name. For the present, at
any rate, the problem haF been solved
as well as it could be by a return to a
monarchy, with a ~singularly astute
and ~far-seeing statesman as Emperor.
No one who has followed Yuan Shi
Kai's career can question that mans
ability. He has retained his grip on
affairs, in spite of internal ~dissentions
of every sort and political conditions
so chaotic that they would have daunt-
ed a western mind. He has brought
some sort of order out of chaos and
has REQ so cleverly hidden his
ambition or else has so imposed his
personality on a majority of thinking
Chinese that he will step from the
presidency to the throne and scarcely
create a ripple by so doing.
The Chinese people are not yet cap
able of a liberal government. That
seems certain. It may be that before
one of Yuan's numerous sons succeeds
his father, China may have found her.
self, but it isn't likely. To the oriental
mind the monarchy, which is an elab-
grafton of the patriarchy, is the only
form of government.
