head of the Chinese Govern- ment, the leading name was until recently that of Chong Him, who showed great ability in the Yangtze Valley during the year of the Revolution. His sole aim was to defeat the designs of the revolutionists, and he did this effectively in the region assigned to him. He was regarded, next to the President, as the strongest man in the Chinese Empire. But to-day the man who occupies that seat of honour is Liung Thi Kwong, the Viceroy, or Governor, of Canton Province. His task was by no means an enviable one when he assumed office at Canton. He took up his duties at a time when the Province was in a very turbulent condition, and he succeeded in bringing order out of chaos. Now that he has the affairs of Canton city and neighbourhood well in hand, he has undertaken the gigantic task of dealing with provincial cen- trea, where more lawlessnese exists than during any period that we can remember.

The Burden of the War.

The prohibition of imported laxaries in the United Kingdom, foreshadowed in a telegram wo published last night, is doubtless promoted by something more that the wish to secure cargo space (in shipe for actual war necessities. The colossal expenditure on the war must be a perpetual right- mere to the Government. When Mr. Asquith made his last state- ment on the financial situation, last November, he told us that the country was importing goods in excess of its exports to the extent of over £30,000,000 a month, and healso disclosed the fact the Great Britain had lent the Allies £423,- 000,000 in a single year. The last vote of credit brought the total cost of the war since Ita outbreak up to the enormons- figure of £1,662,000,000. This Pam carries na up to the middle. of February at a daily rate of expenditure of £5,000,000.- After that date we may well expest a farther increase having regard to the larger scale on which opera*** tions are now being conducted. These grave figures naturally call for, the strictest economy.
