*Cadre
of trade in the Colony (taking a large ft) had been quite sound so far, and the fact that merchants had been giving antiar terma of credit as time went an showed that they had been able to conduct and extend their business profitably on these lines. If they found for complaint he did not suppose they would wait for the Official Assignes or the newspaper to tell them what it was they needed they should conduct their business. As the Official Assignes said, there was no demand
or bow
from the merchants for this Bill. A few mig think registration in a general way would be good thing, but closer examination generally
cause the argument wirely concurred be convinced them that at any rate this Bill

which was substantially iba same as all the Bila that had been hitherto prepared, would not benefit them. At any rate those of most

to go on as they were to bear the ill they had, rather than fly to others they knew not of. With these few remarks he begged to support the repolution. (Applause.)
measure which seemed likely to make buni nees in this respect so much easier to sit. A careful study, however, of the Bill and its blato- ry, combined with some knowledge of the men at whom it was chiefly aimed, could in his opi- Flor de Mondego,nion lead to no other conclusion than that the proposed remedy was worse than the disease it was intended to cure. In the objects and reasons for this Bill it was stated that 1988 arguments which were strongly urged-in 1888 have lost pose of their force, but have rather gained weight through the increasing volume
of trade," "With this he

Thomas Shelford and Mr. Wm. Adamson, eminently capable of forming sound opinion on such a subject. It was worthy of note, too, that Mr Bonser, who Girafied the original Bill in 1888 on which the present Bill is framed, "nevar disguised his fear that any such measure would prove im→ [176acticable in this Colony," and said in effect that he saw nothing in favour of the Bill. Tha reply of the Committee of the Chamber of Commerce to Government in 1891 to the ffect that the indifferent application of regis tration to all classes of trades (for the bulk of whom it was not needed) might interfere with the free commercial development of the Colony held just as good to-day as it did then. The Bill was intended as a
'ns a measure of protec tion to the general community against losses stained by them through Brms trading on what might be called fraudulent creuit. In ninny cases of bankruptcy, however, this fraudulent credit was not a contributory cause and such losses the Bill would not prevent. In other casts, where the element of fraudulent credit had obtained, there were other causes, uch as absence from the Colony of one or more of the bankrupt pasiners, that much more which the most perfect system of registration seriously and directly contributed to losses,

serve would be possib'e even if the Empire, for Shanghai. tion of Partnerships were carried out success fully. Why therefore should they seek for ex pansive and it some control by Government of a matter ihai was entirely within tha
control of every careful merchant? It was objected by some that this was the selfish argument of those who from long experience knew how to protect themselves and that the want of this very knowledge deterred new firms from open ing here. Those who knew Singapore com mercially and who knew how many new Bros had spring up in recent years could scarcely find this a serious reason in favour of the Bill, while as
as regards the selfihnem of the Bigu ment he again quoted Ms. Bonser, who in Oc. *tober, 1888, Bald he took leave to doubt
that whether was quite within the province of the Legislature to do for the mercantile community what it seemed to him it could as well, if not better,
do for self." In the objects and seasons of the present Bill it was admittedly aimed Chinese fi ink, it was not argued by anyone that such legislation was called for except by small proportion of such firms, If it were in any way possible to restrict registration to the particular amall section of the community who required it, nothing could be said against it except that it would probably fail in its pur. pasc. They knew however that such restricted legislation war Impossible and that being so be could not see how this or any amended Bill could fail to cause irritation, Inconvenience and hardship to the many, while its possibilities of evasion would render it abortive in its applica tion to the few for whom the legislation was int-nded.
