JAPANESA WEAPONS IN CANZON.
Unless we are much mistaken, there is more underlying the latest order issued by the Viceroy at Canion than appears on the surface. of late, Japanese air-guns and swords have been arriving at Canton in increasing numbers, and being described as imitation rifles" there xo.called harmless weapong have passed the Cumons without question. Not being subject to the provisions 'enacted with reference to the importation of arms, these air-guns and swords tave been acquired by dealers owning no re- sponsibility to the Government and in no way fiable to stale whither the weapons have gone or to whom they have been sold. In view of the military spirit which seems to have taken possession of the natives of South China, it can be understood that there has been a large sale of these imitation guns and toy swords, which have no doubt heen purchased by par ants to encourage their children to participate But it is quite in the general movement. conceivable that among the many thousands of "iles" imported there have been several which: hardly deserved the appellation of "imitation:" As avery one knows, there is a ready sale in China for arms which have escaped the scrutiny of the Customs officials and were an enterprising dealer to maneuvre some cases of rifles through the Customs and dispose of them to the secret societies he would

the States seem to think that their representa tive can cover all that ground while another representative proclaims the possibilities of Australian connections in Indo-China, Siam, the Strate Settlements, Borneo, Java and Sumatra, the Federated Malay States, Burma and India. The thing is ridiculous. It is not even pos. sible for an agent to look after the interests of Hongkong and Shanghai at one and the same time.

The cost would be com paratively trifling, infinitesmal, indeed, in comparison with the trade developed. that scheme proved a failure then it could be given up, but it would certainly do more to advance Australian interests in Hongkong than a dozen visits at irre, ular intervals by accredited Government agents, who step of one boat and leave by the next. The Chinese merchant is not to be rushed into a transaction, and the Australians have to learn that, before they will achieve anything in the way of a
