OPIUM SMOKING.

The letter explains that the position taken up by the Government from this tỉ - of the Opium Commission's Report of 1895 (and somewhat previous to that vaar) has been that oplum.

smoking is a demoralising vice, which should be put down as far as may be possible without actually prohibiting private smpking. It is to be discouraged more this opium-enting, bath + because it is condemoed to a greater extent by- ladies public opinion, and also because it leads. I' to persons congregatlog together for the par- -nõia; and such congregation-leads- to - faithar. demoralisation and further spread of the vice. In this view, beginning from the year 1891, Government has imposed successive restric tions, first preventing consumption of oplam on licensed promises, then reducing the limit of preparations of oplum for smoking that may legally be possessed, then discontlnging the licensing of shops for sale of preparations of oplum for smoking, and, lastly, limiting the aggregatę amount of opium that may ba possessed by persons meeting together for the porpoio of smallog, Twice, numoly.
