Peking, Sept. 7.
Now that Chang Tso-lin and Tsao Kun have left Peking we may assume that the preliminaries in "reorganization" are over and it is interesting to survey the field and see how much further ahead we are than we were before the great war in the north.
We are supposed to rejoice first of all in the downfall of the Anfu Club. The Club House in Anfu Hutung looks a little neglected, the paper on the windows is torn and the front court yard needs a sweeping. This, it. is to be assumed, is evidence of the Government's sincerity. Also Chu Tung-fang, Wu Kuang-hsin, Fu Liang-tso and other very subordinate persons are the guests of various Tuchuns who consult with one another at great length about the punishment of their charges.
While rejoicing over these fruits of the people's victory the people are not supposed to.stray from the public exhibits of trophies and contemplate persons and matters which are not in the catalogue.
