1t now appears that from all sources
the annual revenue aggregates about
$65, 100000 gold. derived from the land
tax, the grain tax, the Linkin. the Gus
toms, the opium tax and miscellaneous
imports. The largest two items are
the land tax which brings in $4,000
Oc0 and the foreign customs which
yields $l2.000,000. In the opinion of all
the foreigners who have participated
in the examination. the land tax could
be doubled and even trippled without
