THE CHINA ASSOCIATION.

MEETING IN LONDON.

BY ONE WHO WAS DESENT.

Unfortunately this meeting was held on the afteroocus of German mail day and during the height of the holiday soon, else the attendance, which the Chairman spoke of an enthusiastically large and representative would probably have be larger and doubtless more representative of the view held by the rank and fila of members

Brown to divide the motion into two heea put to the meeting. It is understood that Sir Chnetes considered himself bound by the decision of the Shanghai brarch to put the motion as a whole and so could not accept the proposal. The Chairman, in what he will pardon being called his defence of the committer, made the paint that it welcomed to its aid all men of weight newly arrived from the Far East, but we may not be out of place in asking if any man whose views were known to be in opposition to those of the general body of the summitin would bo very heartily welcomed. Now wombers are, we believe, proposed by the existing committee; and as the old members naturally prefer to be joined by those holding the same ideas as them-American visitors

When it is remembered that the great, bulk, the more active, and probably the hotter in formed, members of the Association aro in China, thin suggestion may not be considered unreasonable, and we know commends itself to come, at least, of the members now resident in England.

But, seen if not apathy, on their own part, a danger of being overcome by the apathy of the higher powers and the plansibility of the amy. The workers in the fild are crying out for the motiful to enable them to push forward, but it is not forthcoming, and the ineritable.consequence is that they have to retire step by step and the enemy is not slow in oeen. pying and entrenching the ground thus lest and then claiming it as theirs by right of ocen- pation. Had the London Committee of the Chias Association ben a body of power and had exercised it with the necessary promptitude and energy, Russia would probably never have been in occupation of Port Arthur and the opportunities which that occupation gave her for further aggression would not have existed. So with many of the infringements of our treaty rights by China. The Foreign Office will itself admit that it is governed by red tape; it no doubt replied to representations and requests by the Chinn Association that the matters would be given due considoration, but that they must proved by diplomatic tasthods. We, ungaged in business in China and who have much past and over prosent experience of the

ways that are dark," consider that it was and is the duty of the London Comunittes to take every possible means to convine, the Foreign Office that the diplomatic methods which are suitable who negotiating with America, France or Gormany are worse than useless when dealing with China. But a mere letter frain the Chairman or Honorary Secretary of

the

Association vill never convides the Foreign Office of that fact. As Sir Edward Ackroyd, himself a Government official of long and varied experience, said: "the Foreign "Oflen is not the Goverumbut, and the "Government is not the people. What is "wanted is a strong expression of publie opinion to move the Government, and to this *end it is necessary to educate the people to "see how necessary it is for us to tap and "doing. No great reforme over emanated from the Government, and so the end in view can "only be achieved by the voice of the people "acting on the Government." If any good is to be done it is necessary to convives the Poreign Offee that the Cl Association has the voice of the people supporting it. The officials in Downing Street are not the Goveru- ment, but neither they nor the Government care a straw for the representations, probably very little for the interests, of a for "trate traders" in Far Cathay. They have to care, however, for the voice of the operatives in Lancashire and Yorkshire; those men have votes. That Mr. Gundry, who practically founded and conducted the Association until recently, and to whom it and all China traders and residents owo much, doubtless conscien tiously thought that he could affect more by his policy of lying low," and as his able speech at the meeting showed, is still of that opinion; but without going so für us to regret the un-passing of what the Chairman werpingly said

would have amounted to

Considering that the meeting was called at the investigation of the Shanghai branch and that the proceedings therant must be of spocial interest thers, and also that a large propor tion of the members in Britals are scattered over the country, it seems much to be regretted that the committee did not, of its own motion, provide for the prosence of a verkatim reporter, and that some one present did not think to propose that the press be admitted. The Hon. Secretary may be able to compile a report, ne common courtesy to Shanghai erely demands, but when applied to by a representative of the Hongkong Daily Press for permission to take a verbatim report, he declined, and on the Chair- man being apposted to, he also declined. It may have been desired, and perhaps not unreason- ably--the promadings, although conducted with the utmost good feeling, being not alto gether far removed from the washing of dirty linen-to prevent any report appearing in the home papere, but the permission asked It seems to was for publication in China. us, and we feel wore that it will strike others in the same light, that that refusal was in kemping with the treatment which the Shanghai branch has received since it asked, more than a year and a half since; and after- Wards earnestly repeated that the resolution it passed unanimously in January, 1906, should be submitted to the members in London. At the meeting of committee hold 12th July, preliminary to the meeting of members on 31st idem, Sir Cecil Smith gave a reason why no mention was made in the annual report of the difference between the Shanghai Branch and the general committee: bat up to this day, so far as we are aware, no explanation has been offered as to why the Shanghai, resolution was not, as requested, submitted to a meeting of the members in London: At that committee meeting Sir Charles Dudgeon said: To our "astonishment (I can uso Lo other term) the "reply from London to our second meeting was "eren curter than before, and not the slightest reference was made in our request that the general body of members should be consulted." Considering that Shangbai forms about a third of the Association and that its views are sup ported by the members in Hongkong and else where in China, we ask the general committee if that was brotherly treatment. If the raison d'etre of the China Association is to give au annual dinner, would it not be better for the powers that be in London to treat their Shang- hai confrires in such a way that should any of them be in London in November they can with-

FROM THE COLONY.

One of the Chinese newspapers in the Colony pablished on Friday last a cartoon representing a lady being carried in a choir by fun toitrises. Though the lady was represented as a Chinese, the accompanying letterpress indicated that Miss Resevelt was referred to. Briefly the characters wight be interpreted as stating that the Chinees lul been driven like uzeless things from the doors of the United States, and that chair endlies who carried any members of the Taft party when they came to Hongkong would be

Mr. Culthrop, continuing on the facts-The SPECIAL SALE

defendants undertook to sell the plaintiffs crackers, and the plaintiffs were to satisfy them- selves whether they were the crackers they required. They had every opportunity of inspec ting the whole lot, and of finding out whether they were good. If they were not satisfied they could have refaed the goods and come. down on the defendants for the special guarantee, They took the gools without any special agreement at all, and simply relied on the inspection which they roade at Canten. Ther these goods were sent to America. When they got there they were handled by the agents of the plaintiffs who examined them together with to purebasers of the goods. If there purchasera had wanted, they had an opportunity at that time of rejecting the goods, and they ought to have complained of any defects at once and made their claim.
