The Superior Merits of British Warships Discussing this subject En- giuraring to hand has some interesting and instructive obeer vations to make. Tae all-big gu ship of great speed, advocated and brought into being with characteristic resoluteness by Lord Fieber, against great oppos ition, proved, the writer contends, of enormous advantage in thể recent big North Sea fight, in which the German croiser”“Blu- cher," although built as a reply to the earliest of the Dreadnoughts, proved herself quite inadequate to cope with them. It is also olaimed that in this action; the en- gineering branch of the Service conferred great advantage from the tactical standpoint, the speed. attained being in excess of that resched on trial trips. Inciden- tally, the advantage of oil fuel was further proved, and the First Lord of the Admiralty made the interesting announcement that in addition to all of the vessels of the Queen Elizabeth class being fitted te barn oil fuel only, it has now been decided to alter the boilers of the vessels of the Royal Sov- ereign class, so that, instead of using coal and oil alternatively, as originally proposed, they will be exclusively oil fuel burning,

divideals, the statement is distinctly platitudinous, but if it refers to the collective mind of | the nation, it contains in itself an explanation of China's internal politics trembler The opium question is a case in point: the sincerity of China in her pro. bibition schemes has been vigor ously challenged and asvigorously defended, and the protagonists on either side can find apparently conclusive arguments. What stronger proof could be desired of the genuineness of China's. intentions than the sweeping suppression of cultivation that PAB effected in Szechuan by Viceroy Chao Erhsen? Normal ly, this province used to produce about two-thirds of the total amount of opium consumed in China and five times as much as wae imported from India, yet the whole of this profitable industry was put down in two years with darcely any disorder or resort to force, and when Sir Alexander Hopie made his tour of inspection in 1911, he had to report that after traversing the best known opium districts and visiting most seclud ed spots where it was most likely to linger latest, he had not been able to discover a single plant of the opium poppy-
