Ontee barbarians, who have never ravelled in the possession of pigtails, can form. Tensorption of the snutterable love withi which suck appdages are, cherished by their at celestial owners. The sublime naselisknoma of maternal affection may be compared to it; but That is an instigotiva passion ODBIDION ETAN Smorg mongrel enrs and swer rats, and is therefora Tu so not to be compared to the saltivated but anoeas w ing solicitorsness of a Chinaman for his pigtail. Now the question arises whether or not his pig- tail ought to be extirpated in those which the might of arme will bring into the dominion of Japan; and, as a corollary to this, comes up the gory as to whether small fest should also tolerated. According to the achi, which, duabilese through fear of suspension for tamparare ing with things tabored, bas na yet expressed is on editorial opinion on the "enhjest, a number of people main in that those w andowed by God, or man shockt be allowed to ratule their pigtails intot sa umpleted, whereen others, of a more radical temperament, hotly and spiritedly press forward with the dry that the pigtail must go..

Others, however, maintain that the pigtail as a custom is a blight, and a baur, and o relio of hopeless savagery. As such it must be swept of shorn, eradicated; broswah, as they anpirally arer, "if allowed to remain upon the beads of the people it will be impossible to perox timently.erses all symptoms of Chinese preja- dices from their brains.

From the foregoing arguments it can readily be grasped by even the meatest comprehension that the problem as to the advisability of foster. ing or extirpating the pigtail as sa intitution awong the people in lande acquired by right of vpquest is weil calonisted to rack the minds of are the mightiest administrators of the affairs of nation As yet no course of sotion in the matter has been decided upon by the proper notkoriljer, and it is on, within our province at this juncture and without mature ounsideration to suggest one-Japan Advertiser.
