A section of the native pross of this part of China supports the women's contention and indood appears to be rather jubilant than otherwise that China should.. be so far advanced as to oldat women to take seats in the National Assembly, and a further source of gratification is found in the idea that amongst the Eight- een Provinces of China, Kwang. ung is the most daring, and determined and leads the van in this innovation.
Daily Press,
Great Britain and Portugal, a Later on, perhaps, it might be desirable to conclude a frealt treaty between Great Britain and Portugal, superseding the old, texts, and laying down clearly the obligations of the High Con- tracting Partios, Que effect of the renewal will be to lay at rest all rumours in regard to some projectod spoliation of the Colonil 1 domain of Portugal which igno- rant people havo lately discused. in connection with the Anglo German negotiations, Incident- ally. too it answers a question. which has suggested itself to many people in Hongkong daring the past two years regarding, Great Britain's attitudo ių regard to the seizure of Macno by Chinese troops. It will be remembered
that when the Chinese agitation which aroso over the failure of the negotiation of the boundarios of
Macao was followed by the stationing of a large. Chinose
force at Chinsan, close to Macao, there were many who jumped to the conclusion that the Canton Government meditated a seizure. of the territory claimed by. Portugal. It was an idea widely credited among the Chinese, but that the Chinese Government ever seriously contemplated such a bold onterprise was a conjecture which, wo imagine, had very little basis in fact. In any case, now that it is better known that n Treaty of Alliance exists be- tween Great Britain and Portugal whereby they are pledged to ossint each other "in the protec tion of each other's--colonies-by- sending troops or warships," the rumour is not likely to bo revived.
