No man elected to be President of the Republic for the time being, it was said, could evo" take the place of the "Bon of Heaven" in the confidence and regard of the people of Chins. It was almost inconceivable that the people of China would be satisfied for long to have as the Head of the State. one who was not of the semi-divine race of Kings. In the ancient days only the Emperor was deemed fit to Worship Heaven, as he alone was the Son of HeaveD; hence the rale that "Emperor worships Heaven, feudal lords worship hills and streams, high officials worship tribe gode, sud Commoners worship ancestors."
