In this way a smuggler who Bnds that the watchfulness of the allicors of the vessel makes it too risky to attempt landing tho opium, has it if his power to avoid the loss of his whole in-s vestment by giving information to the authorities and claiming the informer's portion, having bo- side the satisfaction of seeing tho ship fined for throwing obstacles- in the way of his illicit traffic.

In these circumstances it might be thought wiser for the exdelive of the ship, should they suspect that opium is being smuggled to. say nothing and fucilitate its bo- ing tako on shore since, should thoy attempt to unearth it and bo unsuccessful, there is a very good chance of the snugglor abandon- ing the attempt to land it and, by turning informer, save a portion of his outlay and, at the same time, repay the officors lor-thoir unwol- come attentions. The system is a delightful one so far as tho snugglers and informers are con- cerned, but scóms hardly in keep- ing with that justico and equity that is the boast of all civilized peoples.
