More About The Boycott. Those Chinese who are really actively engaged in the boyosit probably believe that they have a grievance in the uter in question. In what does it con- ast? wa ak. The Tramway Com. pany or any other Company find- ing it inconvenient to "handle" Chinose subsidiary coinage- which, as all Chinese know, in subject to considerable fluctua- tion-announco the fact. In do- Fing so, they are merely doing what the governing officials in every province of China are do- ing every day, when they refuse to accept Hongkong or any other coins that are not that of their particular province. If an Eng- fishman travels to France, Gar- many or Italy the coins of his reland have to be exchanged for those of the country in which he is travelling. Why therefore may not Hoogkong currency on y circulate in Hong kong, if it were deemed necessary to adopt auch a course.. To raise opposition in such a matter is childish in the extreme.

We understand that with a view to bringing a more settled state of affairs into being, the Registrar General has had inter-. views with sorne leading Chinese- business men. We do not know. what took place, but we hope that

Russia's terms are liret, autonomy for Outer Mon golia, basing the demand on "the" precedent established by Great Britain in restoring order in Tibet and securing the reinstatement of the Dalai Lama, after he had been banished by China"; secondly," that China shall give an under.. taking to forbid further Chinese colonisation in Outer Mongolis, And that she will send no armed troops across the border.

A Political Farce ? There is, however, another side to the ostensible reason for this rema kable incident, a side which is even more remarkable. A keen. foreign student of Japanese ́af- faire states that, as he, reads the riddle, the nation is being literal-· ly fooled by a piece of clover stego noting. The apparent dis- agreement between the military' group and Saionji is, he avers, simply an ingenious dodge de- signed to tide over a diffi cult situation. The fact is that Saionji in spite of his acceptance of what was tant- amount to a national maudate for retrenchment and reform, soon realized that in the present state of the national finances genuino reduction " of taxation could possibly be effected.
