Yaza's Coronation Postponed:
-Some four months ago when the question of reverting to a mona, chical form of Government, with President Yuan Shih-kai sa its head, was first mooted Peking, we suggested, while not opposing the change, that the anthorities should proceed slowly and with the greatest caution. Wethen hada fear that the enemies. of the President, at home and sbroad, would reize the opport- janity of any temporary disorgani
estion to create: trouble. The Ententa Powers sabeequently took up the me attitude and the most friendly advice WES tendared to the enest that the time
insppone tune. Japan even went so faina to express her open disapproval of the movement. Nevertheless, the promoters of the monarchy, disregarding the soundest of coursels, pushed ahead with their | scheme with the inevitable result, a sadden revival of rebel activity shroad, and open rebellion in Yusman with something akin thereto in Inner Mongolia.
