| Lobenstine, the Hon. Secretary of the Central-Famine-Relief Com Įmittee, organised in Shanghai, we gather that not only are therp oight distinct regions in which want is already being folt, but in two qr three districts the famino is worse than last year. In North Auhwei and North Kiangsu poople have had no opportunity to recover from last year's flood and failure of crops, while this year the revolution in,kes imme diate government aid impossible, and the prosonce of soldiers and the expectation of military opera tins right in the famine region renders the distress more acute than ever.

Daily Press,

The Revolution' Ended. This revolution has intorfared greatly with the agricultural industry of the country, and we shull doubtless be hearing later on of great scarcity of the staple food of the people leading to much civil commotion, especially na there will be little prospect of mcsting the deficiency by imports, owing to unsatisfactory harvosta in the principal rios-growing countries of Asia. For some timo to come the country will need to bo ruled with great firmness, while benefitent reforms in the administration aro initiated. Sun Yat-sen's original idoa was a military regime for five years, but since the union of North and South has become malter of arrangement rather than of conquest, the coun- try may be expected to rotile down much more rapidly chan would have been the case had the armies of the south been'obliged. to figlit their way to Paking.

great deal now depends upon the way in which Yuan Shil-kai and his honchmen co-operate with Sun Yat-sen and his Ministers, and news for the further arrango- iment made for the future govern-. mont of the country is eagerly awaitid.

South China Morning Post.

The Cost of Living, In the last ten or twelve years mattors have assumed a grava aspect, and it is in the unfortu nato spoeding-up in this stragglo for livelihood that is to be found the source of all the industrial unrest which has, so chequered the recent history of the civilised races. It must be remembered that only the worker really feels the pressure of increased prices of necessities. Jie has. none of that elastio surplus which safeguards the well-to-do from the pitifal rigours of straiten- od circumstances. Thus it is that in despair he rails against his [44 employer and there arigos a batred |which precipitates strikes, and mutual defiance, the result of which is merely to aggravate already lamentable conditions. And it is so difficult to get at the real causes of this increased gost of living Every inquirer advan cos his theory, to the confusion of the average interested individ dual who is content to let other think for him.
