0-Aing edict from the hands of Her , to.daj t j j. nill, President of the
M i ' :ny, the Dowager Empress:
in consequence of the uprising of
th Itepubllc-an army to which the
p(.,,pf. or the provinces of China have
r.-.-ponded, the Empire is seething
i;;... a boiling caldron and the people
w plunged in misery.
-Yuan Shi Kai was therefore com
n;;n!od to despatch commissioners
in order to confer with the Republi--nns
with a view to the calling of a
intional assembly to decide on the
future form of government. Months
have elapsed and no settlement is
now evident.
"The majority of the people are In
favor of a republic. From the pref
erence of the people's hearts the will
nf hpaven is discernible. How could
we oppose the desires of millions for
the glory of one family?
"Therefore we, the Dowager Em
press and the Emperor, hereby vest
the sovereignty of the Chinese Em
pire in the people.
"Let Yuan Shih Kail organize to
the full the powers of the provisional
government and confer with the Re
publicans as to the methods of union
assuring peace in the Empire and
forming a great republic with the
union of Manchus, China Mongols,
Mohammedans and HIbeians.
"We, the Empress Dowager and
the Emperor, will thus be enabled to
live in retirement, free of responsi
bilities and cares and enjoying with
out interruption the nation's cour
teous treatment."
Pledges of Republicans to Emperor.
In consideration for abdication the
republicans make the following
pledges to the Emperor:
First, the Emperor shall retain his
title and shall be respected as a for
eign monarch; second, he shall re
ceive an annual grant of 4,000,000
taels until the currency is reformed,
after which he shall receive $4,000,
000 Mexican; third, a temporary res
idence shall be provided in the for
bidden city, and later the imperial
family shall reside in the Summer
Palace, ten miles outside of Peking;
fourth, he may observe the sacrifices
at his ancestral tombs and temples,
which will be protected by Republi
can soldiers; fifth, the great tomb of
the late Emperor Kwang-Sue, will be
completed and the funeral ceremony
fittingly observed at the Republicans
expense; sixth, the palace attendants
may be retained, but the number of
Eunuchs cannot he increased;
seventh, the Emperor's property will
be protected by the republic; eighth,
the imperial guards will be governed
by the army board, the republic pay
ing their salaries.

questions with the utmost frankness! word to you: Are you not tired of
and simplicity, and when it is all
through the committee has learned
nothing that was not known to every
body before.
Mr. Hill was a little more polite
and courteous to the committee than
Mr. Carnegie, whose answers to their
questions has made the committee
eoially ridiculous as an investigating
committee.
The committee seems to take more
pleasure in having big men to come
before it, but so far the committee
has gained no facts or Information of
value in turning light upon the steel
trust or upon any other question.
The Situation in China,
On last Saturday, the infant Man
chu Emperor of China finally abdi
cated and now the Chinese republic
is an assured fact.
It will be remembered that the
Chinese people have in a large meas
ure in the past ruled themselves;
that is, before they wer conquered by
the Manchu Tartars over three hun
dred years ago, and even under the
reign of these Manchu Tartar emper
ors the various States of China have
not elected all of their home officers
except their governors, but they have
promoted their local officers up from
the lowest office to the highest on
merit through a kind of civil service
system. This would seem to indi
cate that the rank and file of the peo
ple of China are better prepared for
self-government under a republic
than has been generally supposed
whooping up your old party which
has promised you so much and given
you so little outside of tax assess
ments? Why not change your vote
now and vote for the party that has
always been a friend to the people;
that will give the peoule the right
to settle all questions by a square
majority vote; that will not oppress
the people by increasing taxes and
offices and the salaries thereof with
out the consent of the people as your
Dartv has done? A wise man chang-
eth (Bible), the fool never,
I hope, Mr. Editor, that our in
surgent Republicans will all come
back to the fold, and by so doing
and bringing out a good State ticket
the Republican party will get enough
recruits from the other parties to
make it a formidable foe to the Dem
ocratic party and victorious one also.
That gentleman you spoke of in last
week's issue who wanted the people
taxed to keep up the News and Ob
server, saying It was the best politi
cal newspaper in the State, should be
caught, caged and civilized for a few
months t and be furnished The Cau
casian for him to read and study, and
if he is not too much carried away
with Democratic hypnotism he would
be very much improved.

HOW TO SECURE SUCCESS.
HOW A WOMAN PROPOSES.
Republican Party Should Get in
Shape for the Fray.
Editor The Caucasian: It seems
to be the purpose of the organization
of the Republican party to run Hon.
Thomas Settle, now Attorney-General
to the Federal Tariff Court for Gov
ernor of the State. This is a capital
move and a wise purpose on the part
of the oarty. 17 think it is high time
that Mr. E. C. Duncan should be tak
en down as a leader of the Republi
can party, when it is well-known to
all those who take the trouble to
read and study his acts that he has
for several years passed, and is now,
rendering greater aid to the Demo
cratic party by far than he is to the
party to which he claims to belong.
Mr. Duncan, like many other profess
ed Republicans, does not seem to
care about the growth and strengtn
of the Republican party, hut .seems
to oppose such, fearing," I guess, that
he would have greater opposition In
getting, a good job in the Govern
ment as he did for so long.
The chief reason many object to
ex-Senator Marion Butler Is that they
well know that he would, if he got
well established in the leadership of
the Republican party in North Caro
lina, have men put in their places
that would be an honor and pride to
that party, whereas now, many of
them are traitors and care nothing
for the party other than the offices
and salaries they are getting out of
