You cannot, to quote a homely proverb, make a silk purva out of a sow's ear. I will be the same in China. A reforming dynasty full of liberal edicts and an enlightened and vigorous Viceroy could only make of their people what that people choose to become. In Japan the habits of loyalty and obedience and the still living force of a feudaljsystem helped the tack of reconstruction. In China there!is a totally opposite influence-one of the freest democra cies under a corrupt) officialdom. Reform the the officials, purify the Administration, and the democracy remains.

This movement, regarded by Japan as a sort of second string to ber bow, has at times actually, clashed with a more liberal Japanese view, and has un doubtedly influenced the Chinese greatly, but not entirely. Nor is it, us in former times, the result of abyal ignorance and panic fear. "ever was China so well informed throughout as now, never was it possible to get at the sense of the prople so thoroughly. The résult seems to be that the first manifestation of the new spirit is to confirm the blind instinct of old and demand that China shall be freed from foreign interference at all costs.

Man churia is to be open to, trade, but not at all on old Treaty-port lines; in feci, Man- churia is be opened to international trade and residence, not by Japan, whose armies are oc copying it at present, but by 'China hersell.' It is apparent that, just as Japan used the West for her own development without coming un der Western influence, so China intends ta retain ber independence of spirit while taking every advantage of Japan's superior equipment. If any expert testimony were needed a to the reality of the Chinese awakening and the enormous potentialities she possesses, it would be found in the coopiderate and conciliatory attitude of Japan- very different lone from that adopted towarde Korea. Naturally, with her aspirations towards the hegemony of Mou-WINES AND SPIRITS of the best quality. gol races, Japan wishes to be on good terms with her great neighbour, but the absence of any atempt to push the advantage she bas gained by her victory over Russia is a very significant sign, China is no longer the China of the war of 1895.
