Local Questions.

Mr. Montagua Erte happily capped the Chairman's observa- tions on thie subject when he said that if we realised the vital truth that German trade activity. in the East was" one of the manifestations of the Prussian Spirit of World Dominion, and not the result of economio pres- aure from within, "we ehould stand together, and as with our brethren in the trenches, have the common object of opposing this form as well as every other form of Prassieniem." Whatever the lawyers may say as to the right of British subjects to trade with the alien onemy in a neutral State, it is obviously, from the moral point of view, the plain duty of every patriotic Briton, wherever be may have his commercial domicile, to act in this matter in conformity with the polioy in force throughout the Empire. It is scarcely credible that any British firm or subject in China can at the present time be acting otherwise, but, while legal pronouncements afford to British subjects the shadow of an exones for trading with the enemy, it is well that our publio men, and public bodies like the British Chambera of Commerce, should emphasise the unpatriotic char aater of the act, and, as Mr. Ede put it, point the way to Britishers generally,

Home Railways and the War.

Under this beading we recently. referred to the admirable servios rendered by the railways at home in the transporting of troops since the outbreak of war. Many ins accurate statements, we learn, have been made concerning the plan on which the companies are to be recompensed for the use of their lines, staff and stock. It has been asserted by some that the Government guarantees the di. vidende, whilst others have gone still farther and affirmed. that the Government had under- taken that the shareholders should not be worse off ander war conditions than they were in On this mistaken idea s peace. ōlaim was made that the workmen should be treated as well as the shareholders,” and by increase of wages compensated for the recent rine in the price of commodities:. Even had it been true that the Government guaranteed divid ends, the shareholders would have been very far from finding them- selves in as good a position as be fore the war. Equally with men, they suffer from the rise in prices, and at the same time have to pay a heavily angmented income tax.
