Then there is sito the local aspect, which sught aertainly to have one mareful consideration as affecting the public morality of the Cuiony in which wo live. The imperial question is whether the Indo- Chines opium tratie skould be continued. The local question relates to the manner in which the opium irada should be conducted in this | Colony.

A closer estimate cannot be given and eyso this depends upon the continued "absence of any cause that might interfere with the supply of labour.
