"WHITE WOLF'S".

PROCLAMATION.

GRANDILOQUENT APPEAL AGAINST YUAN,

THE GREAT TUTUR."

THIN HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, TUESDAY, APRIL 28TH, 1914.

A special telegram from Sianfu to the Shenpan, published on April 18th, reporte the appearance of a proclamation by the "White Wolf" posted up at all prominent place in the capital city of Shemsi Ita contents are fully translated as follows:--

Peb (or White, the family name of the famous bandit)," the Great Tufun of the Army for ble Support of Han in Chios, hereby proclaims:

ALIENT BULER'S DOWNPALL..

For nearly three hundred years, our fathers and elders had been subject to the despotic rule of an alion race. They suffered horrible tortures and were denied redress and justice. By the law of naturo, change in bound to occur when any condition has roached the extreme point; so the extremity of their misery brought about the last- revolution.

We were just feeling some felicitation at the downfall of the monarchy and the assortion of popular rights, and thinking that the godly offspring of China wonjā henceforth enjoy liberty within the bounds of the law, and suffer no more, injury and injustice at the hands of despotic tyrauta. To our surprise, however, the traitor Fusa Shih-kai, with the uruel heart of a wolf, has dictated laws according to his own inclinations and is bent upon arrogating the rôle of an emperor, repelling and banishing the virtuous and the learned, welcoming and employing his own paws and jaws, putting the meritorings to the sword or killing them in cowardly fashion by hired assassins, encouraging his shameless satellites with official rauks and gold; paying no heed to the alienation of Urga, caring less for the revolt by Tibet, and worrying not about the secret existence and growing strength of the Iniperial Party,

YDAN'S PRIVATE-ALM,

His only daily occupation is to strengthen his own party, to sock self-interest, to expel and extirpate dissentients, to abandon his brothers, change the laws, and systems, whitewash his faults, and ill-treat or sacrifice our people upon divers pretexts, in all of which actions he is much worse even than the Manchus. Thus, our country is spEtting and oar people rare not to live. Neverthe- less, his Batterers call him Washington, and foren the critics, compare him with Napoleon.. But, in reality. he is not surpassed in despotism and barbarity, even by Lũi, Chẹng and Sing Mang (two very cruel statemen flourishing during the Chiung Dynasty and the keter Han regime, respectively).

4. Tek Lang, feeling my heart rent by pain and my head ache with indignation, have risen in revolt, and assembled heroes and patriats, with the determination to save the lives of our people, so I call my work the Support of Han. Confucius said: "If no support is given to a lettering country, what would be in use of having that minister?” Although Han is now restored, yet ifthe traitor Yuan were allowed to havó everything his own way without our timely support being given, our country would soon
