China's Chance.
It is an ill wind that blows no good and one of the few benefits blown up by the ill wind of war in Europe has come to China. Since Lotilities began China has. been cast upon her own resources and one cannot help admiring the spirit with which the Govern- ment and the people have faced the financial crisis which 80 suddenly overtook them. Robbed completely of foreign markets in which to obtain the wherewithal to carry on the many schemes of reorganization and reform in handand at the same time adminis- ter the Government, China sought relief by economising, increasing internal revenues and raising ready cash. by a national loan more successful then expected. The result of these measures is that the Government, at the pre- sent moment, three months after the outbreak of war in Ecrops, is more nearly self-supporting than at any period since the days of the Bozor rebellion.

among the snows of Russia. And, recalling three, it seems monstrous that this people should be ignor antly branded, with hardly a protest, as barbarous and un- civilised. The indictment is ohiefly based on the fact that Russia is a very large country, mainly agricultural, and that immense areas are yet innocent of an invasion from cheap school- backs. If this were the time for critically measuring the resources in mind and character of Russia, we should have no such misgiving regarding the alliance in which we find ourselves as seems to trouble those who have prompted theso lines. We have, too often: observed how the finest achieve. ments of the Russian people have in the past been misunderstood and ignored by people who were then busily engrossed in edmiring the mere scientific and mat rial culture of the Tenting to listen
to the lackbiters of Russia. The fruits of Teaton culture arà tɔ bo- seen in the derastation of the fair land of Belgium and the rain of Eorape in a Pyrraio war.
