Chinese la Java.

It hardly needs to be said that in Java and Sumatra, as in tie States of Malaya, the Chinese Ive contributed to a very im

ortant extent toward the economic prosperity of the Islands. There

rowell over half a million" Chinese in Netherlands-Indis, where they are mostly employed on the plantations in Jays, the tobacco estates of the East andin Coast of Sumatra the tin mines of Banka and Dillitön, while the practice of the | handicrafts.everywhere in the Is laude is mostly in the hands of the Chinese. Ta the circum- tances, the demand of the Chinese for an improved legal status in the Netherlands-Indies is entitled" to consideration. Since the Rev- olution in China something of the new national feeling has been manifested by the Chinese popula tion in Netherlands-India and the movement to obtain "full legal equality with Europeans.”—the struggle has rather been to secure- equal treatment with Japanese appears to have atrengthenail and developed to such an extent as lo dispose the Government to make concessions in this regard. The settlement of the question on the lines inlicated in the telegram

nnot but be, to the advantage of the Dutch colonies which, like Hongkong, the Straits Seitle men's and the Malay States, are lopendent so largely upon the patient persevering labour and euterprise of the Chinese for their economic progress and prosperity.

South China Morning Post. Home Politics.

The defeat of the Government on a so-called "enap" division in. the House of Commons has crest- ed a position of extraordinary in terest. It has certainly relieved

the dreary monotony of the pass- age through the House, clause by: clauso, of the Home Rule Bill, and has roused the country to a sense of the unprecedented extent to which the Government is pre- pared to go in order to achieve ils ends. The policy of Mr. Asquith in proposing a rescind ing resolution is contemptible, in the extreme. Had Conting ental affairs been more settled, no other course than an ap peal to the country would be tolerated. The Opposition leader put the position orested by the Premier very neatly when he said: "The Government has a ma- jority if all its supporters attend; then why vote, why discuss, why have divisons? Carrying this lino of reasoning to its logical conclusion, Mr. Bonaar Law might well have asked Why have a Parliament at all ?" BA general election decides which party is be in power; the party. need then only delegate one of its number to give effect to its wishes, his colleagues remaining at home instead of spending weary hours at Westminster.

Turkish Improvements in Tripoli. A great deal has been said, since the outbreak of the Italo- Turkish War, of the work effected by Italians in improving the BC- ofal and commercial conditions of Tripoli, But nobody has hitherto taken the trouble to tell that during the few months that preceded the declaration of war

the Turks had done their bost

to promote the interests of that country. ⠀⠀⠀ "It almost seems," · SAYA the editor of the Questions Diplomatiques, et, Coloniales (Paris), that a coUS- piracy of silence had been under- taken for the purpose of conceal ing the meritorious efforts made by the Tarks to improve the condition of the North African ) aborigines.in Wə "find stated an this journal the particulars of the work undertaken by Ibrahims Pasha, the governor the vila- yet, or province, of Tripoli, in the middle of the year 1910, just before the war broke out. Turkey was a little late in discovering Tripoli's needs, for we read that before the megm bency of Ibrahim-Pasha the pro- vince was practically in a condi- tion of ruin and its people perish- ing for food and particularly for waser. But the new Governor grasped the situation strongly and began to cultivate the good will of the people by many long-need ed reforme,
