(CHINA IS GIVEN A CONSTITUTION; (Continued from First Page.) exiies; the establishment of a Cabinet chosen by the National Assembly, and the exclusion from the Ministry forever of members of royalty. A constitutional government for China has long been promised. In 196 commis sioners were sent to Great Britain, Ger- many and Japan to study the constitu. tion in those countries. In § 190, an edict was that, while the supreme control would remain in the throne, a constitutional government would be inaugurated ip a few years’ time. DELAY ANGERED PEOPLE AND LED TO REBELLION. A year later another edict ordered the establishment of an Assembly of Min- isters to prepare the foundations of constitutional government; and in Octo- ber of the same year (197) it was pro- claimed that each prefecture and district was to organize a local elective Assem- bly. In July, 190, regulations for the provincial Assemblies, which were to be established within @ year, were pub- lished. A month later (Aug. 2), an edict set forth the principles of the constitu- tlonal system to be inaugurated In 1937, and the steps to be taken toward it in each of the intervening years. The earliest of these stops were to be, in 199, the creation of the provin- clal assemblies; in 1910 the taking of a census, the preparation of provin budgets and the promulgation of a new criminal code; in 1919 the convocation of a National Assembly to mad» up of the provincial assemblies and have responsibility of adopting @ cons titution; and in 1911 the establishment of courts of justice. part of the programme has been ried out. The twenty-one provincial Jes opened on Oct. 14, 1908, and National Assembly convened on 2, 1910. One half o f the member- Oct ship of the latter body was named by the throne elected. One prepare a ceieration of the reform plan and the early \summoning of a full Parliament, and the other halt was of its The Very Best Laxative and Blood Tonic.
