Business Morality. Another tagit assumption that fraudulent acts with regard to the transfer of trade marks, short weights, ra-pooking, etc., are general and are widely practised is based upon the idea that young Chinese merchants with English names (who) should be guarded against" are such a dominant factor in the import trade that their methods affect the " many.

"Since the Liberals came into office the civil expenditure of the country has ins creased by more than $30,000,000, and if they are permitted to add to this the expenditure. contemplated by Mr. Geor ge's Land schemes and by the Government's Home Rule Bill, the country's financial position will become a very grave one indeed. So long as the naval predominance of the Empire is threatened by the shipbuilding programmes of other countries, it is safe to assert that no British Government will be supported by. the country at large in ignoring that menace, and if the taxpayers seek financial relief, it must be obtained for the present by pat ting a check on the growing civil expenditure.
