"And what has hitherto been the result of Japan's beneficence V asks OUT writer, here rising almost into eloquence. " Nothing more " than this : that last July, when a terrible disease fell upon the "Liuchiuan pigs and killed niunbers of them, the enterprising " natives salted the poisonous meat, and exported it by junk- " loads to Japan ! Is it not hopeless," he asks, working up to the climax of his argument in a tone of reproachful indignation, " to " expect a reproductive outlay from a count...ry whose highest ambi- " tion is to export diseased pork, from which doubtless many of the "people have died? Look at the present condition of Japan.
" There is no surplus in the treasury, and there is a multitude of " reforms which we ought at first to make in this country before " seeking other places in which to begin them. We therefore say " to the Government and our countrymen that useful and precious " treasure ought not to be lavished to maintain showy but useless " honours." " Such appears to be the opinion of many of the Japanese, and we confess ourselves much interested in the eventual result of the dispute.
