Even more interesting is "Mr. Armstrong's analysis of the causes of the revolution. He has no difficulty in slowing it to have had its prime origin in the spread of aducation and the establish mout of a popular Press. Abuses long tolerated now came into the full glare of publicity, and the officials of the new school-the young, foreign-oduonted, employed literati-had, in their struggle with the old" gang," the sympathy and support of an essentially right-minded popu Ince capable alike of self-reform and of self-sacrifice, as shown by their anti-opium and anti-gam- bling movements. For the rest, we are glad to see that, in spite of having lived two-thirds of his life in China, Mr. Armstrong" has none of the prejudice of the average old China hand against the Republic. "The author is of the opinion that a ropublican' government would suit any other people... . One feels
donvinced that all Chins now re- quires is a strong Central Govern ment, determined to put down official corruption and to govern the country rationally and ox- peditiously. In the hands of such a government China would soon become a World-Power easily, able to hold lier territory against aggression." It is through his able treatment of those questions of Chinese polity that "Mr. Armstrong's" book,meets a pre- sont-day need.

morco with the Orient, and insistent as our flag, has been before the eyes of travellers on the various highways of com merce, the opinion has now seized · some of the greatest engineering firms in England that the open- fing up of a new era in the history of China makes it imperativo for the establishment of an organiza- tion formed to promote as well as protect the interests of Britishı manufacturing engineers abroad. As a result the British Engineers' Association has come into being. The objects of the organization are certainly lofty ones, for they are not only drafted to develop as guard commercial in-
