Chapter 177: The so-called public opinion
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Shikai's manipulation tool, the National Assembly Secretariat, continuously sent electricity to various places, listed as follows:
"The provincial generals shall inspect the secrets of the election and investigate the confidential matters of the election, which shall be regarded as one of the organs of the state, and shall be kept secret, and the commissioners shall be instructed to manage them, so as to avoid leakage and other causes. It has been submitted to the President for compliance. And in August, he sent a telegram to check the case. In the past few days, there has been no leakage of election documents in various localities. The overseer is sincere in his attention to the election. The election of the National Assembly shall now be prepared by the Bureau in accordance with the Organic Law. The supervision of the various governors, the important powers and responsibilities, is particularly unusual, and the consultation with each other is becoming more and more numerous, so it has to be carried out with extra caution. All confidential matters relating to consultations should be subject to special attention in the same manner as the previous submission. It is true that the National Congress was set up to decide on the petition of the national system, and if it wants to achieve the effect of internal and external maintenance, it cannot but be manipulated by secret schemes. As for the correspondence and negotiation between the foreign government offices in Beijing, it is really related to the safety and security of the chaos, and there may be a slight leakage, and the suspicion of not keeping the situation secret.
"And it is a matter of national capital, and if the secret documents are passed on the road, I am especially afraid of the pollution of political history. This section is internal and external, and affects the prestige of the country. Your overseer is loyal to the country, and he is expected to send his cronies to keep it closely. With regard to the confidential documents of the votes of the national representatives, they have the documents that should be kept secret by the governors and their official offices, and they are still expected to declare them confidential at any time so as to avoid delays and safeguard the country. It is a prayer. Handle the Secretariat of the National Assembly. True. Stamp. ”
Since the promulgation of the Organic Law of the National Congress, our bureau has made preparations in accordance with the law, and in the past few days, there have been more than a dozen telegrams sent to the public and secrets. As for the use of clarity in the interpretation of the provisions, and in the use of secrets in the use of methods, they are all within the reach of foolishness, and they continue to blaspheme. Invite the Great Lesson. Thinking about this issue of the national system is of great importance to the future of the country. Zhu Gong vigorously advocated, so that the whole country can follow the scenery, like water to the gully. Observing the current trend, there is an opportunity to be able to take advantage of it. However, the reason why it can suddenly lead to this depends on the power of the public. However, the provisions of the Organic Law of the National Congress are implemented, and the responsibility is entrusted to the supervisor. And the division of the preparation of the bureau, but so for unity. The legislator knows that the public is loyal to the country, and he will be able to carry it out from beginning to end and consolidate the foundation of the country. The mid-term preparations were in the last five minutes.
"Ao is made of light materials, reluctant to attach to the tail, and all the stacked electricity is perfunctory, purely out of the meaning of internal and external dimensions. In summary, there are about four ends:
(1) The reform of the national system is the country's eternal plan for 10,000 years, and the princes have a heavy responsibility. As a result, there are no regrets in the form, and the foundation of long-term stability is laid for self-sufficiency.
(2) The National Congress shall be organized in accordance with the norms of politics and law for the purpose of settling questions concerning the national system, and the voting procedure shall be solemn except for those that are truly obstructive to the legal form. Internally, it can be used as a means of suppressing the backside, and externally it can be used to prevent interference and blame.
(3) The legal form should be the same, so the bureau has interpreted the legal provisions in detail, with a view to the unanimity of the whole country, so as to conform to the spirit of the representative voting system.
(4) Our country is vast and densely populated, and the situation cannot be uniform, so the content of the facts is left to the public to use on their own. So as not to restrain the suspicion of the meaning of the text, and to implement the effect of the full benefit. All these intentions are the hope of the preparatory period. The public is far-sighted, and will be able to forgive this foolishness. The fact that the business has been prepared at any time, and it is indeed certain, and it is still hoped that the good news will be given, so that it can be carried out, and the power is wonderful. There is no hope for prayer. Gu Ao knocked. Delete. Stamp. ”
"The provincial generals will inspect the envoys on the 21st of this month, and the President will send an edict. The political hall shall be handed over to the National Assembly Bureau, No. 153, and handed over to the National Assembly Affairs Bureau. Today, the Secretary of State was instructed by the President to decide on behalf of the Legislative Yuan that the National Assembly will decide on the title of the national vote and that the National Assembly Secretariat will decide on the national vote after formulating the implementation measures in accordance with the Council's consultation. The Senate stated in its original advisory statement to the Legislative Yuan: Article 1 of the Organic Law of the National Congress states that the decision on the petition of the National Assembly shall be made by the National Assembly on behalf of the public will of the whole people. Article 13 stipulates that the decisions of the national deputies on the events provided for in Article 1 of this Law shall be carried out by secret ballot.

The National Assembly vote shall be entitled Constitutional Monarchy. The face of the ticket shall be printed with the words "Constitutional Monarchy". If a voter is in favour of a constitutional monarchy, he or she writes in favour. If you oppose a constitutional monarchy, you should write the word "against".

"The provincial generals patrol the envoys: Huami. The title of the vote for the national system has been transferred to another telegram in accordance with the law. To determine the format of the voting paper of the national body, the Bureau has prepared a model, submitted for approval, and is on the record. The Senate decided to adopt the title of constitutional monarchy as the title of the legislative yuan, and the words constitutional monarchy should be printed in the rectangular column under the words "national system" on the voting paper. And under the column of the words "Constitutional Monarchy", two circles of straight lines and circles are printed, and the words of approval or disapproval written by the representatives of the people in accordance with the law shall be written in this circle, that is, one word shall be written in each circle, so as to avoid uneven forms. This voting paper, which is used to determine the national system in accordance with the law, has a great relationship, and it is proposed to ask for the general jade version of rice paper, processing and printing, in which the printed text circle line will be changed to vermilion, in order to show the importance of the ceremony.

After the reading is completed, the voting paper will be issued again, and the vote will be cast in accordance with the law.
"On the same day, the ticket will be reported to the hospital in accordance with the law, and I still hope to report to the bureau at any time for reporting. However, the Senate decided on the original title, and its decision-making method is formally divided into two types: pro and op, and the same is the case, which means that the legislator pays attention to the public will of the people. In addition to the fact that the title should be declared in accordance with the Consultation of the Senate, it is proposed that the Superintendents, after issuing the voting papers, make a special statement that if they are in favor of a constitutional monarchy, they will personally write the names of those who are in favor of the constitutional monarchy and write the words in favor on the voting paper in accordance with the law, so as to conform to the original purpose of soliciting correct public opinion.

"The generals of the provinces patrol the envoys: the hall is secret. According to the foreign minister's claim, the envoys stationed in Beijing and foreigners living abroad paid special attention to the various matters concerning the voting in the current National Assembly election. The day before yesterday, in the two counties of Dawan, there were many foreigners who went to visit the primary election, and the number of voters in the two counties was small and the handling was incomplete, so the foreign newspaper was quite dissatisfied. I am afraid that in the future, it may be suffocating internally and externally. It is also alleged that a certain minister has also said that the provinces should pay special attention to the electoral situation. The member of the ministry was instructed by the bureau to transfer it to the superintendents, handle it prudently in accordance with the law, and avoid talking about it. The establishment of the National Congress is more important externally than internally, and this bureau has repeatedly issued a special statement. Now that this fact has occurred, the public responsibilities are heavy and heavy, and the interests of the state are very different, and Wan Qi pays special attention to it when exercising his supervisory powers. It is advisable to have all the procedures and conditions that should be followed by law, but which are not very harmful to the facts, and it is necessary to show that our country's decision on the national system this time is extremely cautious and has a great deal to do with the future of the country.
"It is hereby proposed to express the solemnity of the three ends: (1) The electors of the National Representatives, whether they are elected in the primary election and those who are eligible to be elected in the second election, shall be registered and reported to the office when the investigation is complete.

(2) The name of the elected person shall be telegraphed first, and the name shall be registered on the other side. (3) How prudent the preparation of the election should be sent by telegram in detail before the voting period. Upon receipt of the telegrams from the Superintendents, the Bureau shall send the Gazette to the Communiqué on a daily basis, and shall be sent to the provinces for processing. This matter is extremely serious, and it is extremely civilized, which is of the utmost importance. Another telegram will be sent today, and the cover will be set up for this purpose.

And with the country's supreme and complete sovereignty, it is dedicated to the emperor, inherited from heaven to heaven, and passed on to all generations. These 45 words, do not change them in the slightest.
