Dail Por Kwangtung Currency,

If, instead of Bonding dow Finance Commissioners who know practically nothing of finance, the Government at Peking were to engage a few foreign experts to look into the financial affairs of the Provinces we have very little doubt that it would result in a vast improvement of the revenue, just as Sir. Richard Dane's

super- vision of the Salt Monopoly is resulting in an astonishing growth in the revenue of the Salt Gabelle, When it is remembered how flourishing the Province of Kwangtung appeared to be before the Revolution, one cannot avoid the impression that there must be something radically wrong some. where in the administration when the Provincial exobequer connot be repleted from the ordinary sources of revenue, and when, instead of making a large annual contribution to Peking, the local Government is obliged to beg s dole of ten million dollars in order to rehabilitate its note currency. We suppose the Canton Govern- will somehow | muddle through with this business, but in the general interests of trade it is to be hoped that serious efforts will be made by practical men to find the remedy without further delay.
