I may say that I have appreciated the British sense of justice and fairplay displayed by the "North-China Daily News" in inviting a statement of the Chinese case in its own columns on questions one of which concerns British interests in no small degree, and the discussion cannot be conducted under a better spirit than that expressed in the motto of the senior British journal in the Far East: "Impartial not Neutral."
Flint looked at his counsel once more, and wondered whether he could be mentally failing. "Fairplay only gives him two hundred." "Fairplay only gave him ten, in the beginning," said Hilary. "You come here two days before the convention and tell me Crewe has three hundred and fifty!" Mr. Flint exclaimed, as though Hilary Vane were personally responsible for Mr. Crewe's delegates.

Crewe reflected, and although he did not have time to assure himself on these historical points, the thought stayed him. 'Et tu, Brute! Moreover, Mr. Peter Pardriff had something of his own to say. Crewe's candidacy. Here are some of the answers, duly tabulated. "Negligible." Congressman Fairplay. "One less vote for the Honourable Adam B. Hunt." The Honourable Jacob Botcher.
The Honourable Adam put the paper down, and walked up the street to talk to Mr. Burrows, the postmaster whom, with the aid of Congressman Fairplay, he had had appointed at Edmundton.
