| Research Abstract |
In 1906,An Imperial decree was issued commanding within ten years foreign and native opium be equally eradicated. British Government agreed to reduce annually by one-tenth of the average amount of the Indian opium exports to China. This anti-opium movement was regarded as an earnest social reform in late Qing period. But we should not forget at that time Qing Government urgently needed money after the Boxer uprising. The production of native opium was very large, and that the revene derived from it was also very large. The Qing China Policy in her last several years has been to centralize this revenue, and the conflict over native opium revenue has been proceeding between Central Government and Local Government. To eradicate British opium trade is very convenient to Qing Government. She could have introduce heavy duty on native opium without Britain's interference..
