Incidentally it may be worthy of note that two of the present unofficial members of the Council, the only two who do not profess to be elected in any shape or form, have "demonstrated their unrepre- sentativeness by not signing the present petition to the House of Commons in favour of a reformed constitution, which has the eager support of fully nine out of every ten residents and ratepayers. There is no need to mention names-such facts are sure to be sufficiently well known in a amall community like Hongkong; but of these two, one is the most notorious toady and servile tuft-hunter that ever played up to his official patrons, while the other is under a heavy cloud cast over him publicly by the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and never yet dissipated, an imputation which cannot but nullify his every public act and declaration. In making these remarks we are not actuated by the feeling that the two mentioned are opposed to us on the present question; facts are facts, and these were never lost from view even when (eg, in the recent discussion on official salaries as affected by the silver question) the Member for JARDINE's and the Member for Oplum were with us. This constitutes practically the only opposition to the cause of enfranchisement In Hongkong; and we are pleased to learn that the pair do not carry a dozen men with them, so that for all they can do the movement is bound to succeed.
MACKINTOSH VERSUS KESWICK.
Ar the annual general meeting of the on the 8th April, 1892, the Chairman, Mr. E. MACKINTOSH, local head of the Arm of BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE, made some very polated references to the (then) newly enacted law commonly called Keswick's Share Ordinance, which had avowedly owed its existence mainly to Mr. J. J. KRITICK, present Chairman of the Chamber and local head of JARDINE, MATHRION & Co. It was pretty openly hinted at the time that Mr. Kiswick was largely interested in stock speculations and that fact was thought by many to have directly Influenced his action in the Legislature. What Mr. MACKINTOSH said was- -
