The Northern Chinese and the Quéue.
It is frequently affirmed that travel widens men's minds, puts them in possession of facts, and onables them to observo ton- | dencies, which are necessarily withhold from those whose lives are circumscribed by local events. » The boaring of this observation is | evident in regard to the Olinos8 who reside in Hongkong, or Canton and never travel beyond. The enthusiast for the now order- of things, who believes that the Republic is an accomplished fact, because the Chinese around, him have discarded the queuUO, that badge of - serfdom the Manchu conqueror, has but to leave the south and travol northward, to find that, measured by this standard, the revolution has made little or no progresa nt all. It is true that in the Sotile-
to
ment at Shanghai the quente, is not greatly in evidence; but when one goran rthwards, and reachios Shuntung and Chihli one secH that there is no enthusiasm ou the question, and, apparently, no intention on the part of the robust" Ühinese farmor and co lie to med-
dle with his time-honourod head- adornment. Probably, not one |man in a thousand has been in- fluenced by the propaganda of the southerners in this regard.

Plague Prevention,
We would like to suggest to some member of the Sanitary Board that a very instructive com- ment on this method of extor- minating plaguo might be sup plied by a return showing how many casos of plague have becare ported this year from houses where the ceilings have been removed and how many from houses whero. coilingastilloxisted when this cus were reported. The Sanitary au thorities, as we have remarked, appear to praceod upon the as- sumption list where a case of plague is found, theru the source. of infection mutet exist. During the past few days in one of the largest buildings in Des Vux Road, accommodating
several business offices, the Sanitary Department has caused every ceiling throughout the building to be removed becauso" two olerks, not in the same office, had become victims of plague. It does not necessarily follow that this building was the place of origin of the disease. Assuming for a moinent, however, that tho TO LET on 2nd Floor No. 2. Ped infection is in those ceilings.

It is not disputed for a mo. ment that the master book of a Chinese company must be kept in Chineso, but there seems to bó no reason (other than the expens0 of keeping a translator cap- able of duplicating the ontries in the statutory books and cash book into English) why Ohinesa companies registered here and enjoying the benefits and privileges of such registration should not be compelled to produce when required the proofs of their position in the writing of the law. under which they are registered and in which, in many cases, much of their business is tran sacted. The master language of the law of the British colony of Hongkong is English and the same argument as advanced by the Government in upholding the Chinese contention applies, and with even greater forca.
