OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
South China Morning Post,
Defence of the Empire. Ho who runs may read the trond of events, and when wo | Icara Princo Louis of Battenborg enunciating views in London that "the float a'ono cannot protect Great Britain and that a suffi oiently trained professional army was quits as acceseary 88 navy, we are the more deeply impressed with the great neces alty of lifting the subject of nation al defence ont of the vortex of politics. The Defence Committee, and our leading statesmen, do not see oye to eye in this matter, and the sincerity of their convio- tions may not be challenged, but, it is imperative in the higher and bost interests of the empire that the line so clearly defined by Lord Curzon should be followed if wo would serve our greatest and most immediate needs and at the same time anticipate any startling contretemps which Fate may bring about. We look to the patriots of Britain, and not to hor politicians, for such steps to be taken as will place the empire on an altitude of safety, Tho State must be before party in all crises.

The more fact that thord in authority have acquies- ced in the holding of a "Day of Prayer," with the view, it seems, of giving Christians an opport unity of joining in the hope that the new Übinego Perliament will be successful, indicates fairly conclusively, at least, that those "in bigh places" are in no way Corset.actively opposed to the propaga of Christianity in their midst. It may mean even more, but it would be too sanguine to say too much on that point.

Britsla and Tibet,
In 1901 there would have been ao direot difficulty in establishing British administration at Lbaza and the Tibetans themselves would have welcomed it if it fresd them from the thraldom of the lamas; but so far from doing anything of the sort, we did no even demand the right t station a representative there and to this day are at a die advantage in the respect as com pared with Rassia. A farther proof of the divergence betwee: Roesia's aime_with_regard Mongolia and Great Britain's i respect of Tibet is furnished by comparison of the Korostovol Agreement and Sir John Jordan' BRAND) Notes the former secures verica privileges for Russia; the latte are confined to demanding inter nal independence for the Tibetans The old plen of Chinese suzerain ty, which used to be assumed o discarded by either party at com venienos, will no longer do must 'know' 'definitel who is responsible for the administration" of Tibat, and to whom we are to look for the fulfilment of our Treaties wil her.
