It is here the enlightened statesmin exceeds the timid man-he former has fath in man He is not afraid to give him opportually and education and weapads of self development,
China and the United States are fortunate in this that there is no case system: each -man by self-effort may makethë mon of bim self and come to his fullest powers, with no traditional or artificial barriers to climb over, With all its people thus to draw upon for idea and activities--for inventions, for military genius, for commercial, Tatellectual and per sistence, for intellectual and religious stimulos and leadership, a nation "is richor than where a larger contingent of its people is suppressed in its development and the" națion's strength
drawn from a limited contingent.
There are living and dying nations as there "ate jodividuals; a century or two is enough to, transform a world-leading nation to a pathetic wreck, and the explanation invariably lies in the weakening of the individual character; the people coase to be industrious, earnest.and become pleasure loving laxity is the rule,
for genuide service to God, the birth rate fals off and the government derives it revenue Then follows from vice as the easiest source corruption, social commercial, and political and when war comes, it is discovered that love of country is mere. rhetoric pr wholly absent, and men are more eager to save their lies and their
to offead the people. The faults of the govera. ment are the fapits of the systém rather than of individuals; the average magistrate seeks to be what his title conveys, "The father of the peo ple" In the interior, I have been consulted | by judges and others, who were plainly striving 'bard to reach a just decision in a case, of which they conversed in close detail. The Chinese official, more than any official of earth, musteverence yields: empty devotion is substituted earn the approval of his people, otherwise they put such a pressure po him, by local violence or otherwise, that be muit-leave. Some Chiness practices of which so much is said, as official "squeeze" etc. should be abolished, Sắt the people understand them, there are limits placed on them beyond which the official dare not go. The official himself would welcome a change provided the Government gave him a living salary. These reforms cão and will be brought about by the demand of progressive Chinese, THE BRITISH POST OFFICE AT Nothing is more important in government than. that people respect it and feel confidence in its justice and protection, whereas at present a Chinese dreads to bave business at the yamox, for he does know how much it will cost him in money, and he fears entanglemente..
