2. The chance of mums
a paper had gone out in 1872. In 1907 it puts forth reasons for uniting Labuan & the Straits Settlements. Most of these would apply equally well to the union of Labuan & Hongkong; with the additional one that the consumption of opium here is greater than in Singapore. Furthermore I believe the leading merchants & inhabitants of Hongkong would not view the scheme with disfavour.
