Quackenbush, February 14, 2012) investigated this photograph by contacting Quan Lim, the editor of the Chinese Times in 1990 and secretary to the Chinese Free Masons. Mr. Lim wrote back the following note (part of note left out, as it was not pertinent to the question): The date on the newspaper was Sept. 12, 1914. It is the “Sai Gai Yet Po” (which literally translated into English means the “World Daily News” but actually the English name of this daily newspaper was “The Chinese World” It was the first Chinese daily in North America, which was published in San Francisco California, U.S.A. It was the organ of the Chinese Empire Reformers which renewed to the name of Chinese Empire Reform Party of the Ching (Manchu) Dynasty and later changed is name as the Chinese Democratic Constitutionalist Part in during the time of Republic of China. This paper was the only English and Chinese bilingual language daily newspaper in North America but unfortunately because of financial difficulties it had been closed for the last twenty years.
