was by no means an unmixed evil. The terms
of peace imposed by the Japanese in the Treaty
of Simonoseki seemed harsh and humating
AS matter Of fact. they were not only wise
and statesmanlke, but also benelicent to the
conquered nation. They contained within them
selves both bane and antdotc They robbed
China of valued territory. and compelled her
to pay a large indemnity. But they also re-
Quired her to open her ports more freely to the
commerce Of the world and to open her terri
tory to the introduction of Industrial machinery.
Thus they forced her, though unwittingly on
her part and against her will. into paths OF
greater prosperity than she had before known
This fact is made evident by an inspection
Of the report for 1895 of the Imperial Maritime
Customs, which has recently come to hand. In
spite Of foreign and domestic wars. II was a
good business year. There were large importa-
tons of machinery and developments Of indus
try. Money was plentiful. Trade was brisk.
