THE sentence passed on the er Treasury clerk Alves by Chief Justice Clarke at the Criminal Bessions certainly cannot bo called a severe one, having regard to the nature of the crimes with which the prisoner was charged and of which he admitted his guilt. Yet we believe it will be generally felt that the punish- ment which his misdeeds have brought upon him is one too light. Unknown to any but himself, it must bave had its beginning long ago, as long ago, indeed, as the first of his offences, and it must continue in one form or another so long as he lives. The case is the latest. and surely the last of a remarkable series which there can be no doubt had their origin in the speculation manis from which the colony suffered a few years ago. It has been the practice in these cases to point to the gambling epidemic of that period as something of the nature of an exonse for crime. Mr Francis, in this long and able speech which he made on behalf of Alves, speaks of the prison- or as having allowed himself to ba tempted by the wave of specalation which prevailed over this colony a few years 6 p.m.-bleeting of Hongkong Corinthian
