OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

South China Morning Post,

The West River. Public attention is so mnoh engrossed with the war in Europe that it bas almost overlooked the recent revival of piracy on the

Canton Delta. It seems simost as if Hongkong a interest in the drawal of the patrol flotills, but this is no so. The precautions ment of this Colony are, we understand, being rigidly adher- ed to on all of the river vessels"

maller osased with the with-

recently adopted by the Govern

and, though the patrol has

for obvious

reasons Leen

tomporarily withdrawn, there is, on the other hand, no sign of slackness on the part of the Chinese authorities, who are fulfilling to the letter the taak recently allotted to them by the Central Government following the representations made by the British Minister.

China Mail

Chinese Opinion on the War, The wretched condition of China's weakness is referred to and especially the weakness of the internal government, whereby little improvement is seen in the people's condition, and no effect given to the people's aspiration. He, as a thoughtful writer, wisely urges the more intelligent part of the people neither to be elated at the fact of the great European war nor to be distressed about it. As a matter of fact, what others are doing need not concern China. primarily at all. What more pertinently concerns the Middle Kingdom is to really set her house in order so as to be able to protect her own dominions, and than it will not matter much to her what happens sa far as the issues of the European war go..

We think it is extremely un- likely that either party will wish ia the near future to meddle with Chins unless the latter acts foolishly, as she has often done in the past. That for the present can be left out of account. Whilst, however, no one can con- demn the advice that Chins should get about taking steps to protect effectually her own borders, thie cannot be done in a month, and meanwhile she is well advised to take extreme caution that her neutrality is beyond suspicion.

Daily reas

The ladian Emigrants. Mr. Gurdit Singh professes to be indignant, firally because this was not communicated to him by cable to Vancouver instead of by letter to Yokohams, and secondly, Бесцве the communication should have been sent at all, seeing that no such con manica- tion was made when the ladians Passed through Hongkong to Vancouver. According to Mr Gurdit Singh, it was this com- munication which started all the trouble with the steamship owners in Japan. We cannot see what difference it would have made

and we certainly do not want 350 destitate Indians dumped into the Colony now, or at any other time. There is no obligation na the of the Government, we part believe, to go to the trouble of inaking any cmmunication of the kind at all; it must, therefore, be regarded as an act of courtesy, and, as such, we have no doubt it is duly appreciated by the owners of the ship, if not by Mr. Gardit Singh.
