Tang Shao yi.
With the fall of Manoliu official- dom, the implicit trust placed in Yuan Shih-kai and Tang Shao-yi, by which the former becaino China's first President and tho latter her first Premier, in pro- ference to such inen as Wu Ting-
fang, General Li Hung and Dr. Sun Yat-son, is difficult for the'- western mind to understand. Tit Tang found his office not alto- gether a bod of roses is evident from recent criticism levelled ot him by the body known as the Consultative Chamber, and wo should, therefore, not be surprised if ultimately he should relinquish the premiership and probably Yuan Shil-kai will find it expo- dient to allow his entollito to be merged in temporary colipse. Tang's history has been, so far, a very remarkable one indeed, and Consequently it will be all: the more interesting to crye his subsequent actions.
