OPIUM CULTIVATION IN KOREA.

Once again opium is being grown at
China's very door and the conclusion
that seems obvious is that it is grown
that 1t may be sold to the Chinese.
Rev. Thwing, of the International
Reform bureau at Picking, hearing
rumors that opium was being grown in
Korea, went to that country to investi-
gate. He learned that it was growing
in the Korean province nearest China
and was told that japanese officials
had provided tho seeds and had en-
couraged the Koreans to grow opium.
telling them that in that way they
would make much money. Mr.. Thwing
says: 81 went to the capital and had
an interview with the responsible
Japanese officials there, and tried to
show them the ruin that would come
from this new policy. They seemed
somewhat ashamed when ! explained
to them how hard China had worked
to suppress it and, In spite OF revolu.
lions and a weak government. had &C.
complished wonders. Japan with Il
strong central government could cas-
lily put, down this evil as well as that
OF morphine which is also doing 50
much harm in China. This new cult

may undo much of the work accom-.

ed. The. public opinion of the world
must speak The best people OF Japan

for Japan to furnish opium for For
