SATURDAY, APRIL 6, Iwi.;
Cl'ilNA’S DECISION.
It appears that the united protest of
the powers against the Manchurian
agreement has proved effective and China
has at last definitely refused to sign it.
When the history of t-he episode comes
to be written, we doubt not lt will appear
that the past few weeks have been fraught
with great peril, not _only to the
Chinese Empire but to the peace of the
world at large. It would be fortunate
for the western powers if Russian cupid-
ity and greed, which brought about the
Manchurian agreement, could be disposed
of as summarily as the agreement itself,
l but this is too much to hope for. ‘
Neither Russian nor Chinese diplomacy
_ _ _ or. _,_
¢ ‘,t.xke$ account of moral considerations.
_ E N E R j From the beginning of the Boi trouble
China has sought to divide the civilized
powers against each other and so para-
lyse their force. Russia, whileavowedly
acting with the western powers and
Japan to obtain redress for the outrages
committed upon their subjects and safe-
guards forthe future, was all the while
Empress and` her advisers. The result
was the secret treaty by which under the
guise ofa nominal protectorata Russia
'was to obtain military possession and
right of occupation in Manchuria and
Mongolia. When once the existence of
this secret agreement became knownto
the western powers they were confronted
with a grave crisis.
Britain Japan and Germany were ` the
active protesting parties. The United
States held aloof from interference, and
the drst attitude of France led to renewed
suspicion that she was acting in support
of Russia. There is litt-le doubt that
China was fhlly committed to concede
practically everything to Russia, 'with
the trust that Russia would in turn lend
her protection against any and all other
powers. It is clear that Russia 'has in-
sisted to the last that China should sign
the agreement made. It is equally clear
that the strongest possible pressure was
brought to bear upon China by the west-
ern powers and Japan to prevent her
signing. We can readily imagine that
dismenberment of the ancient Empire was
threatened, and then China yielded.
"Thf§“ls1mplied in Chinafs answer-to Russia
in which it is  that the present'
period is “th_e_m'ost perilous in the Em-
pire’s history.” _ _ '
Russia is in present occupaticnof a large
part of the territory which the denounced
agreement was to give her a. title to.
Will she now, or at the end of the pre-
sent trouble, withdraw heir forces? And
if slfe will not voluntarily do so how is
she to be compelled? It seems probable
enough in th is _view of the case that the
nal crisis is only adjourned to a future
day, alnd that when the day of fin al set-
tlement comes it wi1l_and in the very
dismembcrment which China has for the I
time narrowly averted. N, l

The New Brunswick election law- has A
been amended so that non-residents can-
not voze, excepting that residents of St.
John City having property in the adjoining
County of St. John may vote there.
Otherwise electors can only vote in the
electoral divisions in which they reside
respectively.
Mr. Murray, -M. P. for Pontiac, Quebec,/’
has given notice of a resolut»ion\declaring
that the time has arrived for considering
the advisability for adoptingsuch measures
as may be deemed necessary with a view'
of amending the British North America
Act in the direction of reducing" and
limiting the representation in the Parlia-
ment of Canada and the several asset..-
blies of the Provinces; also the abolition of
the Senate and Legislative Councils in the
several Provinces in which they exist so
that the whole uiaclnuery of the govern-
ment will be less cumbersome and exten-
sive. _

THE GUARDIAN, 
_There is a delusion among a certain
thing. This delusion is that it someway
inn-sms its dignity and importanae 'ef sf
youth to be seen puffing a cigarette,
cigar, or pipe. The delusion_ is' strictly
condued to boys. Their- sisters and
mothers do not share it. And no man, be
he smoker or non-smoker. thinks better of
a b0y because he smokes. i
Under the fostering care of the Govern
ment wheat-growing has been stimulated
in New Brunswick and n_e v and improved
flouring mills have been erected. Last
year‘s wheat crop in the Proilnce was over
halt a million bushels. Six new roller
lastyear, making eighteen of these now in
the Province. Their capacity ranges from
35 tc50barrels per day, except the St.
John mill which can turn out I59 barrels
in the day of 24 hours. V
