We are not sure, however, whether that part of the question has been practl- cally pproached by the Japanese Authorities. We know only that what they did at a recent date was to laterdict all cutting of trees in Government foresta except by persons who. could exhibit a Government licence, and to call open all persons engaged in, such colting to exhibit their licences. The order was accom-
panied by penal clauses referring to its infraction, and doubiless under these elsuses the arrests reported by telegraph were made. Acquainted with the temper of the Japanese, and their earnest wish to proceed Impartially, we can not imagine Iswially engaged in the industry, and with those that any hardship has been suffered by person unlawfully engaged in it there need be no sympathy. Intelligence of the arrest of iwo Chinamen, who had been felling trees in State forests without any permit, reached Tokio some days before wa re-published a telegram on the subject from the Honghong Daily Press. We are inclined to suspect, therefore, that our colonial contemporary's Information is more or less disfigured by exaggeration.
