WHAT THEY THINK.

China Mat.

The Bane of China. The deeds of Li Hung-ahang, Chang Chih-tung, and Yuan Shi-ai pale when confronted by the work of Robert Hart. They spent their days for the most part in conserving a decadent state of things, in suppressing those who vainly struggled after something botter, and in saving the wreckage that floated about "after such serious national calamition as the deloat of China by Japan,

One of the most needed re- forme which the new Govern- moat should therefore atrive to inaugurate is to reform the way Chineis statesmen look at ideals. If an idoal is admirable and worthy of accepta tion, thon it should be adopted, while the collateral circumstances and corollaries must take care of themselves. "A double-minded man is unstable in all 'his ways," A double-minded Government is not only unstable but is useless for the people over whom it rules, and is a worry to other Governments with which it may have international intercoures.

Clear conception leads naturally to clear and correct expression, not only in speech and in books, but also in deeds. Chiness re- formers would do well to think the matter, for the days Lof double-dealing are surely

passing.
