sweeping an assortion to my that no man in China really implicit ly trusts another, there is abund- ant justification for regarding mutual distrust as a national characteristic. We all know how. fatal this mutual suspicion has been to publio progress in China. Suspicion of the motives of the Government has delayed the re- forms which China needs, and may it not be said that mutual distrust and suspicion have been larger factors than any other in | wrecking the new-born Constitu-
ion? A republican form of gang vernment la manifestly impos- sible while this lack of mutual confidence prevails. The au- thorities of public schools like 9. Stephen's College do right to make the building up of charac ter their chief aim, for mutnale confi lence is but a result of faith in the strict moral integrity of the individual. His Excellency'a remark is manifcatly true that the Chinese would carry more weight abroad and would manage their affairs in their own country far better if they would caltivate the power of working together with mutual trust and confidence. That spirit would be a tremend- ous asset to Obins, and mouldere of Chinese public opinish would be rendering the Stato a great service by sedulously preaching the necessity for cultivating this as a new national characteristic.
