The Armament Question,

The greatest Empire the world has ever known must not bo jeopardised to plense the whims of the well-intentioned. A certain visionary place is said to be paved with good intentions; and, thore- |fore, until those good intentions | are more firmly.based upon sound common sense, the question of disarmamont must be relogated to tho laud of Utopin. It is a mistake, wo baliovo, for our statesmen to refer to our "Supro- macy of the Soas;” rather should' they say that the Navy of the Bri- tish Empire will always be roady

to take a supremo position on the sea should the nocêssily arise for dofonsive action by our great fleet, tlo fundamental purpose of which is that it should be "an instru- ment not of aggression but of defonce." The British Empiro does not pose before the world as the supreme ruler of thọ ven, but. eho is proparad—and must conti- que prepared--should the time. ever ariso for such a claim to be assorlod to show that sho is roady to most with any possible combination of opposition. That this is clearly recognised by states- men is an indication of the futuro splendour and prosperity of o Empire. It also means that poace of the world is safeguarded, for there is nothing like boing thoroughly roady, for 'war to`on- sure the blessings of peace.

stability of the new. Government. Another very important factor is the loan imbroglio. If the nego tiations are successful the Powers will see in this a good guarantee of stable goveramont in China; if, on the other hand, the Govern- ment doclines to necode to the Jomands of the Bankora' Syndi eato us regards supervision and inspection, and decides instead to attempt to raiso money in the country by special levies, then the outlook would be ominous indeed. A telegram has been published in Peking to the effect that the Ger- man Government has approached the other Powers on the subject of a general recognition of the Republic of China, and the news. uas evoked many expressions' of gratitude towards Germany, - a Homi-oficial journal remarking that" the country that takes pains to cultivate the kindliest feelings of the Chinese is the one that is likely to be most benefitted by the increase of China's trade." Sweet are the usos, of advertise- mont! Every Power interested in China is equally as desirous as Germany to be able to socord formal recognition to the new Government; but they all need assurance that the Government has come to stay, and that assur- ance can only be had after a sufliciently long and careful study of the attitude of the people to- wards the acts of the Government. | If, having regard to all the cir-

cumstances, formal recognition, g by the Powers is obtained within twelve months from the declara- tion of piece, China will have cause for congratulation.
