Monoy-Making Minerals. From the article contributed by our representative on yesterday's visit to the new "tia mine" in the New Territories, it will be seen that, to all appearance, some local business men have "struck oil" in "atriking tin.". The pro- posed venture promises well, as our representative's statement, which, of course, is absolutely unbinssed, gives clear indication that ore is present in large quantities and in parts of the soil which will not necessitate ex- pensive operations. The Glor vernment, it is stated, have. granted a lease, and the Company propose to operate over an area of five square miles. This sounds very well, especially as there seems little doubt that the conces sion will be highly profitable. The new industrial development should also be of much benefit not only to the immediate district- Un Long-in which the mine is situated, but should prove and perhaps ultimately to a consider able extent of very considerable vaine to the Colony, the Govern uent of which, we understand, will receive five per cent. royalty on.every ton.

that the Bankers have made these representations to the Chinese Government, and we are told. The Chinese Government having Gaully recognized the political unlity of contrecting a Loan with the Sextuple Group and having accepted practically all the. stipulations laid down by then- including the cancellation of other loan agreements which conflicted with the Sextuple" Loan-is naturally disappointed. And so we have again the suggestion that the negotiatiors have failed and that China is apparently free to borrow elsewhere, and that as heavy obligations fall due next month there is no time to be lost. The whole position is inexplicable to the general public, but the general idea ono dervies from the information available is tlist the difficulties in the way of an ad- vance in February are not of a character that cannot be sur incunted.

South China Morning Post. Free Trade or Food Taxes. Every foreigner in the For East is soon made painfully aware that the bigger salaries in busi- ness offices here are to a great extent illusory, though naturally when demand exceeds supply the employee enjoys a better market but se between Japan with her protectionist tariff and Chips with her five per cent import duty, there can be no question as to. which of the two is the chea per land in which to dwell. Strictly speaking, the economic prosperity of nations which, liko the United States, Canada and the Russian
empire, are really vast continents in them- selves, would be no conclusive argument on the side of protec tion, inasmuch as all those coun- tries practise free trade within their own confines which, gengra phically and climatically, offer ne great a variety of markets as the whole of Europe. Certainly the fairest comparison is between Great Britain and Japan, which are both island nations of much the same size and population: Here the difference in favour of
