PROTECTION OF MISSIONA

DOUBLE EDGED DECREESTU
PEKING April 8th. The Imperial Government always wishes to protect its subjects and has been ever absions) to attain this object. We look upon both the ordinary people and the converts in the sams light and we always display bur impartiality towards them, an
and have never failed to do our best to bring to our subjects the blessings of peace, so that they might enjoy there lives. Thus we have several times commanded the Viceroys and Governors of the provinces to look after the people so as to keep them at ease- sad not allow anyone to cause trouble between the people and the followers of the foreign religions. Yesterday we received a memorial from Hai-Liang, the Governor of Honan, re garding the disturbance at Piyang hafen, where missions have lately been burnt and converts murdered. With regard to this matter we have already issued decrees to arrest and punish the criminals. But we feel that even though we punish them severely after the disturbance takes place, it is not so good as to check such disturbances beforehand. Since Westem people first came to our country more than two hundred years have elapsed. With the inten tion of

of being converts behave badly in th...
districts
and enter into litigation with the other peop and if they could not gain in litigation they go to the missionaries for assistance.
