The Suppressed Suffragette, A woman's place is the Home, not the political arona; her duty is to obey rather than to not, and nothing,shows her inchpacity so much in failing to realise her on- viable position in the shamolesa manner in which she has been bing of late. The British and American suffragettes are stated to bo at prosent full of envy that. there appears some probability of the women f Clinn boing placed upon an equality with the male population so far as the suffrago is concern- lod.
Would the British and American Indies also like to have the same domestic folicities that. prevail in China?. Would they.. like to bo No. 1, No. 2 or No. 3 wife at home? The fact is that "John Chinaan" considers lis womenfolk of so little worth in overy respect that he would not condostond to discuss the ques- - tion of the suffrage with them. The womon of China will probably be told that they have received the right to vote, and thất will be the end of the matter; for it will be the case, oven mord so in China, than elsewhore, that onco the ladios aro granted the privilege of voting in political alfairs, that they will couso to long for such a right, for whicli the average woman has neither the capacity nor the wish to in- torost herself.

A fow days before the delivery of this speech, Hsung Usi-ling, the Minister of Finance, had explained the financial posi tion of the country to a gathering Chiness journalists in Shanghai, We need hardly remark that those Budget statements mark a now departure in the history of the country, and now that the people. are the sovereign power in the land, the national finances are being subjected to closer scrutiny than they have ever been before, It has always been a mystery to: foreign investigators how past governments at Poking love bean cents.ible to make ends meet," for the published accounts of revenue and expenditure have shown that the expenditure of the country has been invariably greatly in excess of tho rovenuo.

Kowloon Leased Area. The report in sovoral of the Chinoso papers to the effect that Great Britan has successfully concluded an agreement with the Peking authorities for an exten- sion of the lonsod area on the other side of Hongkong harbour appears, to have omanated in Japan. As far as we have been: [344 able to ascertain, however, no proposal of such a naturo has bben submitted to the Chinese: Government by the British Minis ter, nor have steps of any kind been taken locally to secure such an extension. For some months this non in the street has been of the opinion that an extension sa 'far as Sheklung would be desir- able. It would give Britain.con- trol over the larger half of the Kowloon-Canton railway, and the river would form a more distinct line of demarcation than at pre- sent exists. Scopo would also be afforded for developing mining all the thrillsnd excitement of all and agricultural industries within way journey In the cord time of the bounds of the colony,This, HALF AN HOUR.
