Naoking the chairman elected for the Assembly represents the scholarly class, namely, Chang Chien who is optimur from the Hanlins of bis year and has of late years been prominent if public matters of this province. But the main thing to be borne in mind is that the principle of representative and Parliamentary. Govern mentis inaugurated and honoured today. Power has been granted to the people and their repre. sentatives. In striking contrast with the custom of only a decade ago, when no private in dividual could safely discuss public quenton, the people now are beckoned to iks front and are given their first taste of political power. Never again. can the Government go back on this principle, though brakes may now and then be applied to the revolving wheels of ins dividual responsibility and independent action, Imperialism, civilization, monarchy, and even absolutism will still commend an outward respect, but ap was perceived from the beg sing of the era of reform, there exists henceforth a counter-indoence from among the people and in the provinces,
