Electricity in Hongkong..

It seems reasonable to suppose that industry would be stimulated in Hongkong if power were avail able at a cheaper rate. We do not advocate in a place like Hongkong the municipalisation of electricity in the same way that water is municipalised. To be quite frank the experience of the Colony is n't such as to lead us to suppose that any good would result if the Government took over this/m 100- poly" as well as the Opium Farm. It would probably be a Iminister- oil by the Public Works Depart ment, which seema to find its present obligations more than sufficient. But we do think that in this matter the Legislative Council has a full right to insist that the Colony is being treated properly, and our contributor has madeout a good case for a Govern. ment enquiry into the whole aubject. It is hinted that life would be much easier for as in the tropics if we could turn on the supply of electricity in mach the same careless way that water is now used.

Licensed Gambling.

Wa were somewhat surprised to read three days ago an appeal from a large number of the busi ners guilds in Canton direct to the President urging him to concur with current opinion, and to make gambling once more egal. It is true that

those who appealed were esce many of enough to admit that evils would follow and if the thing were lone, it mest be done with this fact clearly recognised. On the other hand, there was anoD;

found in any other little friction Of

course, the great hope is that so much money would fow into the local coffers that it would be possible to redeem the miserable paper money with which the market is now floded, and it was thought that any risk was worth taking, in order to stave off the calamity of local bankruptcy. It was stated by more than one writer hat as things are at present much gambling goes on, and worse than this, many of the richer people go eff to Macao to gratify their na tural love of gambling, the Portu- guess Colony reaping the reward whilst after ch those who indulge in the habit are not freed by the present laws from evils- to the vice,
