IN REGARD T0 Cl‘llNA.

A recent proposition in regard to China

is worthy of some attention. It is that the great Enfpire shall be divided into four or dve Empires by concert of the Europeans powers, the Empires to'_be in- dependent of each other, and each to have `a dynasty of its own, and that

po _European power; shall

_ acquire any territory or control ln T that country except such commercial pri- vileges as may be obtained by treaty.

It is claimed for this plan that it alfords

, a comparatively easy and natural solu- I tion of a very grave problem, United China by the adoption of|European meht-

_ods in military and naval affairs might become a menace to the world. If

_ divided as proposed, each division would f operate as a check upon the others so far as aggressive action is concerned. If trouble arose in one Empire or Kingdom it could be probably limited to that divi- sion, and in case of any outrage npon the i citizens or rights of any' European power it could be more readily and effectively 1 dealt with and redress obtained.

It would be the easier to effect such a

pirtition of China because no one Europ- ean power more than another could profit by lt, and me ebeege bmugut about would be disinterested on their part. Such an arrangement would be much more readily accepted by the people of China than any scheme of European dom- ination. The great _powers of the Vice-

roys Qis such already as in some cases to render them nearly independent, and the transitiontoactual independene with three or four provinces thrown to- gether into one state, would be by no

` means a very violent or revolutionary one. Morecver China is now in in matters of

religion and dialect a c6mmunity,,of na- tions, by no means homogeneous, and would lend itself quite readily to such a re-arrangement. ` e

It seems probable that as in the case of

Japan, the regeneration of China, when it comes will come from within. Mere sub-

jugation by European powers could hard-_ ly eifectlt. After a war of subgugation the Chinese would be even more hostile to

Christianity and European civilization

than before. So that, viewed in various lights, the above proposed reconstruction of China appears to have many points in its favor.

Among the many revolutions in con-

struction brought about by the cheapen- ning of steel and its substitution. for wood is the steel railway car. There are two

principal gains by this. The average lifetime of a wooden freight car is about 15 years. A steel car built in France in 1869 is still in good preservation. It is believed that with improvements since

introduced the steel car may bereasonably expected to endure two and a halfto three times as long as a wooden one. Again, a standard wooden :ar to carry 30 ,
