The Outlook, Intensely optimistio is Mr Lloyd Goorgo. He is the Chan collor of the Exohoquer and one of his duties is to make the most of the nation's prosperity and progress. However well develop ed the fruits of British oclivity may soom when they are plucked it is not an easy matter to recon- oile the cheery remarks of the Chancellor, as reported by

The past twelve months of political strife and Inbour unrest have written a black page in the history of the nation. Never las capital bren more sorely tried nor the temper of the people more thoroughly roused. Nover, perhaps has danger more grave threatened trade and commerce, through whose channels flows the life- blood of the nation. The storm has by no means subsided, though there is evidence that the waters are loss troubled yet, through it all, the Chancellor bobs up to tell us with nemilo that the millennium is approach- ing and that the country has reached a degree of unparalleled prosperity. He even says that this happy condition of affairs is based on sound and healthy cir vamstances likely to continue 1464 Unfortunately there is another

The Currency Problem. Among the mass of reforms that call for accomplishment be- fore China, even as a democratio Republic, can claim to have. approached to the levels of modern civilization there is none more urgent than that of the stan- dardization of the currency, though it may be added that there are few questions presenting more diculty. The present situation can be dismissed in a few words;for it has been described score of times before. There are at least six units of currency in China-tho tant, dollar, 20-cont piece, 10-cent piece, copper cont, and casli- with no fixed or definité relation- ship between them. As though this was not enough, the coing or units vary in value in almost eyery town, and the dollars or small silver of one province sre useless in the next. The
wide variations in the tabl sro,
times picturesquely illustrated saying that a traveller who started withacoraineum of mondy and er- olanged it at every town into the tacl recognized there would find the whole sum vanished after he had Brossed. broo provinces.
