JaDan's New Constitution.

The world has recently witnessed the
spectacle of country receiving liberal
constitution which has not been wrested
from its rulers by force of arms
The mikado Of Japan has made his
people present of magma charta
which in effect changes the government
from despotism to liberal monarchy.
The new constitution is the result of a
careful study Of the various existing gov
ern,ncnts by the mikado and his advisers.
A parliament somewhat similar to that
of Great Britain viii hereafter make laws
for the empire. 1t consists of house of
lords and q house of commons The
house of lords is partly to be appointed
by the mikado, partly elected and partly
hereditary. The house of commons il
elected by the people, and consists OF 800
members.
Universal suffrage is not granted The
result of the millado's study of republics
evidently decided him against that. In
Japan, only men who are % years old
and upwards may vote, and only then
when they pay taxes to the amount of
So5 a year. The suffrage qualification
is thus financial, not educational.
Perfect liberty of religion and freedom
of speech are guaranteed to ell the people.
In this respect Japan is in advance of
some Of the most enlightened govern
ments of Europe.
Japan has moved a long way since the
American, Commodore NJ. C. Perry, first
opened her ports to intercourse with
western nations in 1854. To the United
States is due tho present commerce of
Europe and America with the mikados
realm, if not, indeed, all the progress OF
Japan itself in recent times. The perse-
verancc and enthusiasm of one man, Com
modore Perry, effected this result. From
his youth Japan had been his dream
Of romance. He studied carefully all
tho information he could obtain about
this country, at that time Theoretically
sealed to western nations. His efforts
to open communication began in 1852.
when he was appointed to command the
United States fleet that sailed to the
Orient. He accomplished his mission in
1854, when treaty was signed between
the United States and Japan. Treatiea
with other nations soon followed, and
Japan became 4 modern nation.
The daimios, or hereditary nobility,
were the ruling class Of Japan for 9, 600
years, up to 1868. In that year they
voluntarily gave up all their wealth and
hereditary privileges, and as a class
ceased to exist of their own accord 1t
is an act of patriotism unparalleled in
civilized nations.

Supreme Court Election.

The tern for which Associate Justice
Cassoday, of the Wisconsin Supreme
Court, was elected expires on the 3lth
OF December next, and the election for
the ensuing term will be held on the I'd
of April, 1889. y call has been made
upon Judge Cassoday of a very general
and highly complimentary nature to
become candidate for re election. 1t
is signed by the eight state officers, by
the thirty-three senators and one
hundred assemblymen constituting the
present legislature, by more than one
thousands lawyers in active practice
In the various counties OF the state,
and endorsed by the members of tie
Lincoln Club of the Fourth Ward of
the City of Milwaukee and by many
other citizens; it has also been unan-
imously endorsed by all the news
papers that have mentioned the sub
ject. In response to this remarkably
strong call, which of itself is a recOg-
milton and endorsement of the highest
character Of the eminent ability and
faithful service of the official to whom
it is addressed, Judge Cassoday has
written the following letter of ac-
ceptancc:
JUDGE CAssODAY's RESPONSE.

1SSenlblgmca, and he seyerm members
Of the Bar, gentlemen Of the Press and
citizens If UiscoHsia:
The cordial endorsement and s,Inport
for reelection rendered by as many
representative men, cherishing os many
different shades Of political opinions,
not only calls for grateful acknow-
Judgement and appreciation, but
awakens deeper sense Of official re-
sponsibility
Called to the bench eight years ago
with out any judicial experience, the
result must have been regarded as ex-
perimental, at least to some extent.
even by the more sanguine friends.
Conscious of the great aid to be derived
from learned associates Of ripe judicial
experience, yentUred upon the exact
ing duties of the Office with the deter
mination of sparing no effort in seeking
to reach accurate Conclusions
Whatever of merit or demerit there
may have been in these years of service
must ever speak for itself in twenty
four volumes of Wisconsin Report.
While human wisdom seldom reaches
its own highest and best conceptions,
yet the failure, duly appreciated,
generally stimulates to new endeavor.
Should your suggestions be ratified by
the people at the coming election, |
can only promise renewed fidelity to
Truth, Justice and Law; to the end,
that the rights and duties of the in
dividual and the relations of property
and citizens, may be the more clearly
eomprehended and observed. the laws
more generally respected and obeyed,
and the permanent advancement of
our state and country more completely
secured.
Thanking you, one and all, and the
people whom you represent, for this
new mark of confidence, | am, most
respectfully, your obedient servant
