oat the whole of China is strongly. proteating against the new Press Law recently promulgated by Presidential Order, and it must be [admitted that they have a legitimate grievance. Like most. Chinese laws which have boen enacted within the past two years. it is a very orade piece of legisla- tion, full of the faulte due either to inexperience in drafting laws or to sheer ignorance of the legislator. In a joint memorial to the President tha Chinese journalists have very intelligently pointed out the unreasonable character of many of its provisions, and the mystifying ombiguity of

any others of apparently equal imporlance. At it stands the Press Law is absolutely unwork.. ablo. If the Law is strictly enforced it must mean the speedy extinction of the public Press in China. That newspapers aball not publish the diplomatic and military secrete of the country is." accepted as a reasonable require- ment, but the extension of the provision to general political affaire" is so palpably prepes- terons that it is never likely to command obedience.

The term ' raft conveys to many minds the impression of Pomething extemporised, and therefore liable readily to break to pieces. The picture of Robin- son Crusoe on a raft is not un- familiar, but the rafts now pro posed, Sir John Biles has pointed oat, are deserving of serious con-- eideration. It is believed that the more they are studied, the batter will be the opinion of them.. They can be given more stability thon an open or decked lifeboat. They require no appliances for laacobing, and when thrown from a vessel's deck it is immate. rial which side floats uppermost, Seamen who have had experience of rafts say that on`a les, shore they are the only things which can successfully land people.. The recommendation to adopt these in lieu of boats in large vessels to the extent of 25 per cent, of the total persons to be oarried seems to Sir John Biles to be quite justifiable.
