MR. HOLT AGAINST MILITARY COMPULSION.
THE STORY OF A THRONE.
A FEEBLE DEFENCE.
The following is from the Peking Gazette of 1st June-
The lengthy mandato, reciting the Chiat Executive's version of the well- Enown story of the monarchier movement, is regarded in Chineas circles as a sign of impotence on the part of Poking and as indicating the lack of sensible advice within" the "confines of the wallow-tiled | Palace walla. Ta point of fact tha |4"
mandata has pet with no reception at all1. With the single exception of the
Kuo Chuan Pao, the only paper in. Paking which coutipuen tosing the praises in the manner of devoted sycophant, po.. notice of the apologia, bas been taken in any of the monarchist papers. This is not strange. Even the monarchist most now realise that it la too late to attempt to neutralise the results of" the, confessions already made by the Peking Government. The author of the mandate, whoever he may bo, la [laughed at in Chinese circles as a mas atterly devoid of the sense of hamour. And the question is asked whether be really expected the views expressed in the mandate to be accepted by any one. 'It in douatious 'true' that in issuing the mandate, the Chief Executive intended to set himaelt right with the nation in the event of his retirement. Unfortunately the mandate is so wofiled that, while bis Padversarica remain unplacated his sympathisers will hardly suffer themselves to be made scapegoats for the sake of the justifying the contention that position of Ynan, Shih-kai as the Great President of Chung Hua Mia Kuo has never been surrendered or affected in any way by the monarchist movement." t is probably this consideration which has sealed the ever-ready lips of the monarchist editors in saying anything support of the views 'set forth in the mandate.
