Industrial Development in Hongkong.
The sctivity in the local ship- building yards has been recently commented upon in those columns, and consideration of the comparatively rapid growth of this industry leads naturally to enquiries concerning others. It is, of course, quite obvious to anyone who spends a month in the Colony, that the mainstay of its existence is the harbour and all the various commercial trans- actions arising out of it. Seventy years ago ambitions atatesmen may have dreamt of the advan- tages of acizing Canton and the province of Kwangtung sa com- the occupation of this little island, and it is certain that the know- ledge that Canton was many miles from the sea had deciding influence against Boy anch

Hongkong, in the matter of its public buildings, has, it must be admitted, greatly improved its position among the European eities created in the Far East. Oar now Law Courts and our Post Office challenge om- parison with the public buildings of any Colony ct settlement in

theatre and public hall wek Beren woefully behind the times. Our City Hall, which contains the theatre and assembly balls for public meatinge, con certs, and balle, and icolades also a museum and public library, waS built by public subscription close upon fifty yeare ago, and the fact is constantly forcing itself upon public aftention that the theatre and public halls are inadequate 1.75 to present day needs, and that a 1.75 | total reconstruction of the build- ing is desirable, if not absolutely 175
