OVERLAND CHINA MAIL,

HONG KONG'S BUDGET DEBATE.

This week's number of the "Overland China Mail" con- tains the full report of proceedings. last Thursday in the Legislative Council.

The speeches, in full. of the Unofficial members are re produced together with the Government replies to the public criticism.

For folks at Home the lengthy report, summarizing as it does the position of the Colony, should prove very interest- ing reading matter.

To be used as a reference, local residents will also find. the issue of great help. But that is not all.

The week's occurrences at Canton and coast and river ports, showing how trade improved after the boycott only to be set back this week, are clearly described.

Every "China" cable, with copious footnotes and ex- planations for the benefit of non-Chinese, printed in the daily paper, will be found in the weekly.

Articles written by experts, topical local features and other matter go to make up a variety well worth noticing.
