PEOPLE DEMAND CHANGE
Declares Safety oi' Far East
Menaced Unless Old Farms j
Are Restored
(Correspondence of Associated Press.) 1
Peking, Dec. Jo.—Chinese newspa
pers reproduce a digest of the repre
sentations made to 1..U Cheng-Hsiang,
the minister of foreign affairs, by the
Japanese Charge d'Affairos, supported
by the British and Russian minister
on October 28 against the restoration
of the monarchy. While the Japan
ese legation does not support the ac- i
tual wording of the printede message,,
Mr. Obata, the Japanese charge, says
that it is in effect the representations
laid before the Chinese minister of
foreign affairs.
The text of (he note published is
as follows: "The movement, which
is now being promoted in China for
a monarchist restoration, has caused
much anxiety in the minds of those
interested in this country, although
it is said to have been brought about
in accordance with the will of the
people. 1"or instance, there are not
wanting signs of unrest at Shanghai,
while in provinces along the Yang
tse Valley and in the South generally, I
there are not lacking under-currents
opposed to the monarchial movement. ]
Indications of unrest are becoming
more and more apparent: and it is
not improbable that as soon as a
convenient opportunity is offered to
the opposing party, some instantane
ous uprising may be expected.
Urges Careful Administration
"At the present juncture the na
tions in Europe are plunged in a war
which assumes a graver aspect day!
by day, and there seems scarcely any ]
prospect of its immediate termina
tion. No one can foretell the date on
which the peace of Europe will be
restored. Therefore, we suggest that,
tinder the present circumstances, the
nations in the Far East should be cau
tious and careful in the administra
tion of their affairs, so as 1o maintain
the general situation in this part of
the world. This, we deem, is of prime [
importance. Now, if ilic movement i
for a monarchial restoration be pro- j
moted at the cost of peace and order i
in this country, which may he dis- |
turbed by the opposing party at any j
moment thereby causing great disas-1
ter to the people and making the
foundation of the country unstable, it
would be not only a misfortune to
China, but the interests of the na
tions who are more or less interested
in this country would also be affect
ed. This is the logical effect which
the course of events will produce.
Compliments President Yuan
"When we speak of this, we trem
ble with fear and anxiety. Since
President Yuan Shi-kai's inauguration
as the president of China, he has done
many things which are calculated to
maintain peace and order in the Far
East. He has suppressed internal dis
turbances and restored peace and or
der in the country. For these achieve
ments of President Yuan, which have
contributed not a little to the main
tenance of peace and order in the
Far East. w<- have expressed our ap
preciation. We hereby express our
"hope that. President Yuan in the in
terest of the general situation and j
order of the Far East will preserve,
the present status quo of his country j
until a future date, when the country j
becomes more peaceful and prosper- '
ous and its foundation becomes more j
stable. By that time it will not be j
too late to restore the monarchy. This
is the sincere hope which flows from i
our heart and wc earnestly request j
the Chinese government to consider I
the same.
"The empire of Japan has no in
tention to interfere with the internal
affairs of China, but. peace or dis
order in China has much to do with
the general situation in the Far East.
The reason which has actuated us to
offer this advice to the Chinese gov
ernment is that asjapan and China are
next-door neighbors in the Far East
and as the two countries have long
been on cordial terms with each other,
Japan cannot bear to remain silent
respecting these matters. We hereby
offer our sincere advice to you and
hope that our meaning will be under
stood."
Publish tlie Reply
Through the foreign office the Chi
nese government made public to-day a
summary of the reply which Tsao Yu
lin, the vice minister of foreign af
fairs, delivered verbally to Sir John
Jordon, the British minister, Mr.
Kroupensky, the ltussiun minister,
and Mr. Obata. The language of the
summary is not given as absolutely
I official, but it is in effect what Mr.
j Tsco Yu-lin said. The full summary'
made public by the foreign office fol
lows:
"The Chinese reply to the friendly
advice offered by the Japanese, Brit
ish and Kussian governments was
verbally delivered yesterday after
noon. It points out that the matter
is entirely China's internal affairs, but
as the advice was given in a friendly
manner, the Chinese government gives
i a full and detailed reply.
"There has been for some time a
strong section of the people In fa
vor of monarchy and more recently
their ranks have greatly increased,
including the most powerful and in
fluential men in the country and the
under current of agitation for the
change in the form of government has
daily grown stronger. The Chinese
government has always opposed the
movement. But in the light of re
cent developments, if It were to re
sort to forcible suppression not only
would the will of the people be ig
nored but there would have been con
siderable danger to peace and good
order. Consequently the Chinese gov-

Until Xmas 304 Market St. Harrisburg Pa. l Untilx m as
eminent has had no other course but |
to promulgate the bill passed by LII
Fa Yuan to organize the Assembly of |
Citizens' Representatives to determine',
this constitutional question in accord
ance with the wishes of the people.
President Opposed Cliaugc
"It will be remembered that the I
President, on the ninth of September, [
In a message to L,i Fa Yuan, ex-11
pressed the opinion that the proposed j
change wan unsuitable to the circum- •:
stances, thus officially stating his per-11
sonai disapproval of the change. Then
after the promulgation of the law
above stated, he issued a mandate on
October 10, stating that any hasty and
rash change was undesirable and ad
monishing all superintendents of elec
tions to carefully observe the provi
sions of the law, Instructions which
were again repeated in a circular tele- !
gram on October 12. This shows that j i
there has never been any intention of r
bringing about a hasty change. That I
the matter has had to be referred to I
the decision of the people is because,'
according to the constitutional com-j
pact of the country, sovereignty is I
vested in the peoj>le.
"The reasons for the general desire I
of change are that with China's iin- i
intense area, the diversity in the five,
races, and the present standard of
education of the masses, the frequent
change of the head of the state un
der a republic will be fraught with
great danger not only to Chinese life
and property but to foreign interests
as well. Thut this darger Is not im
aginary is shown by recent events in
other countries similarly situated.
1 Furthermore, during the four years
since the establishment of the repub
lic, men of wealth have refrained from
investing their capital, businessmen
make no permanent plans, administra
tors form no fixed policies and a gen
eral feeling of instability prevails.
Such are the people's reasons.
"As a large majority of the peo
ple In the country desire and expect
the change and as the question has
been referred to the people's repre
sentatives for decision, with political
conditions unsettled, trade at. a stand
still, men's minds expectant, if through
the dissemination of false rumors of
evil persons untoward events should
result, not only would Chinese suffer
injury but foreigners would also bo
alarmed. So long therefore as the
constitutional question remains unset
tled so long will there exist an ele
ment of danger. Particularly is this
so since at the time of the coinmunl
i cation of the advice, five provinces
have already, through the Citizens'
Representatives, declared for consti
tutional rnonorchy. The hope and ex
pectation of the Chinese government,
are that foreigners resident in China
will pursue their business in security
and that the peace of the Far East
will be maintained. «
Could Not Cliet-k Movement
"When the discussion us to the form
of government was at its height, the
Chinese government, apprehensive of
danger, repeatedly telegraphed to the
provincial authorities to ask whether
they could absolutely maintain order.
The reply In each and every case was
that if the will of the people was not
ignored, they would be responsible for
the public order so that when the
change should be carried out. no un
toward events would occur. No report
has been received of any strong oppo
sition nor of anything which should
cause anxiety as regards Shanghai, the
Tang-tse region, and South China.
Naturally the sources of Information
available to foreigners cannot be as
full and accurate as those of the Chi
nese. The Chinese government can
only place full credence on these pro
vincial reports.
"There Is a small number of rebels
taking refuge in foreign countries and
other localities beyond the reach of
[Chinese law. They will always seek to
jstir up disturbance whether the gov
ernment be a republic or a monarchy,
as in the past so in the future. But
usidc from dissemination of rumors
[and incitement of sedition, they have
absolutely no power or Influence, and
during the last few years whenever
they have created disturbance they
have us soon been suppressed. The
provinces are now taking special pre
cautions against them and it is hoped
that the governments of the powers.
lin all localities beyond the Chinese
j jurisdiction, will co-operate in future,
us heretofore, in keeping them under
restraint.
"The Chinese government appreci
ates the friendly spirit of the advice
and the declaration that there is no
intention of interference In China's in
ternal affairs. Tho Chinese govern
ment is, like the governments of the
powers, animated by the desire to
maintain the peace of the Kar liast
and they may rest assured that the
Chinese government will Rpare no
means to attain this common aim.
"In the reply to 'he British govern
ment, tho question addressed as to
whether the Chinese goevrnment was
confident that the change in the form
15
of government could be carried nut
without untoward events was furtlier
answered. The Chinese government
Is at all times, In accordance with In
ternational law, responsible for tiia
maintenance of order. In the carry
ing out of the change, the Chinese gov
ernment Is confident, that there will l a
no untowaru events."
