THE DOCKYARD AT HONGKONG. THE
AN INDIAN OPINION. The growing importance of Hongkong as a
naval base has been accentuated by the recent disturbances in the North, and if it is true, as the Morning Posavers, that the protocol is a farce and that China will emerge from her recent, humiliation stronger and more danger. ous than ever, the absolute necessity of strengthening the naval resources of Hongkong will be apparent to all. From this view the decision of the Admiralty to complete the
dockyard extension, works on the island. in preference to taking up an absolutely new site on, the mainland at Kowloon will be received with satisfaction by all who have at heart the protection of our vast trade interests with the Far East. The inhabitants of Hongkong have long been agitating for a removal of the naval dockyard from the island to the mainland, and it is not difficult to sympathise, although it may not be possible to agree, with them. The city is overcrowded, the population having grown during the last forty years from 40,000 to 300,000, and is still steadily increasing. Ground is wanted for the habitation of the people, as also for the improvement of the city. Victoria, the capital of Hongkong, like several important capitals in India, is very bad- THE Undersigned, having been appointedly built, and its extremely insanitary conditions Company, is prepared to ACCEPT RISKS,were in horrible evidence during the terrible epidemic of plague which decimated the lower Chinese population. Nothing, however, can prevent it being the great entreport of British commerce in the Far East, and it is only natural that its inhabitants should wish to improve and extend the city to meet the growing needs of the population and commerce.
