which brought about the coup d'etat
by which the Empress Dowager. sup
ported by the troops of Yuan Shih-
kai. made the emperor a prisoner and
resumed the policy Of reaction.
Baked of his designs in Peking,
Yam Vowel fled to Japan, and from
there led the journalistic agitation
for revolution. The impetus for an
independent journalism in China was
supplied by the defeat of the reform
ers in 1898.
In 1900 the reactionaries were foolish
enough to allow themselves to be tied
un with the Boxer movement. The
utter failure of that uprising gave
the old regime its deathblow. Be
cause the ManChus had lost face they
had lost authority. From that moment
the new forces could develop in COM
par3tiVe safety, and newspapers
began to spring up all over the
country.
Some sort of machine composition
is all that China needs to make its
newspaper producing processes equal
to those of Western lands. The new
phonetic script can now be set by
machine, but so far no genius has
come forward with practical
method of doing away with hand
labor in setting up the thousands of
ideographs of the old-style writing.
1t has been estimated that a Chinese
typesetter has to walk 3 miles in
order to set up one page Of a news
paper in these characters.

The Subdued

I oftened gaze at William Whiz,
who once was bold his thoughts to
speak, and think how sad thing it
is that now he is afraid to squeak.
He was a plumber long ago, and put
in pipes for gas and steam, and as he
teetered to and fro he spoke his mind
on every theme. We knew just where
this William stood on every question
meath the sun: he'd say thing was
bad or good, and not retract for any.
one. And though we voiced some dis
content when he would strings of
words unwind, we all admired this
honest gent who did not fear to speak
his mind. And this was why he got
our votes, that time he ran for county
clerk: we Whooped for him and shed
our coats and got in most successful
work. He'd held the Office now for
years, and hopes to hold 1t till he
dies: which may explain why he ap-
pears most rabbit-lile of timid guys.
l say to him, This rain that falls
persistentIy throughout the day will
heal the farmers sores and gals, since
it insures a crop Of hay" He seems
as though about to speak some words
confirming what I've said, but he is
frightened now and meek, who once
UDreared a Mars-like head He thinks
OF merchants who can't sell the gaudy
hats designed for Spring. because the
rain comes down pell-mell-he has to
think of everything. And he recalls
a picnic planned by teachers Of the
public schools, and so he dares not
take a stand indorsing rain and ponds
and pools. So he is troubled and dis.
trausht, and nothing trenchant can
he say; THE matter calls for earnest
thought" he says, and shuff1es on his
way. This shows what politics will do;
it turns the lion to a hare, it lanes
the leaping kangaroo and makes a
poodle of Il bear. WALT MASON,
