The Flood Problem.

If dykes could be built in Holland to keep out the see they can be built in Chica to resist the uprising of a river however great and unexpected that may bo. It is true that the river at Wuohow this year has risen siz feet higher than last year and that last year constituted a record. Then let dyken be built which abail be strong enough to contain the waters even if they rise to ten feat higher than this year, Tue margin of safety must be large. Meantime it in good to learn that relief measures are being taken and that relief funds are being raised. Bat with things as they are relief on the same scale au last year cannot be expected, and this is the more unfortunate becanis, more tolief then ever will be required. And that bringe us back to the point that the Government must stand on ita own lege this year and must stand aclidly. It has never bad a greater test than the present and it is be hoped that it will rise to it firmly and without delay."

Daily Prov.

The German Chops. InstaLees could be quoted of German merchants who have offered British firms rights in their "chops "for the duration of the war-for a consideration? We asy nothing of the supreme im pudence of such an offer; we mention the frot merely ar evidence of the value the Germans

??

place upon their "obops" and also to point out the necessity that exists for taking care that these "ohops are not merely “.nursed" for German merchants till the end of the war, The quer- tion is a somewhat complicated one and it is doubtful if it has re- ceived the attention it deserveE, aparcely seems right, for instanc that British cubjects who were formerly employed in German firma and Lave now started in business on their own acccunt ehculd be allowed to use "chops of their former employers. They suddenly inherit, as it were, & valuable business and goodwill, and the impression-perbape quite asjustifiably is created among the Chinese that the old firm" remaine in the field ander a new name. Either thote "chopa should be entirely cancelled whether they are owned by enemy aliens in China or British subject: in Manchester, or else they should be sold by, public auction at the instance of the liquidators of the firms which had exclusive right in them prior to the war.
