We desire no eentrsl government, bur
self government Ine organization OF the
party u dinicuit. As We may not coDd uct
il openly, we eoEducf lt Ia secrecy Most
OF our people are 80 far behind The times
that we consider il lest 10 proceed step by
stsp. The end Of il ali Will Dc Communism
or something OF the kind. OF the radical
movement We know nothing, oeeause oaf
papsrs are not allowed 10 prins anything
about &C. our own views, too, may no, be
printed here. As the law neglects 10 for
bid the reading of our works, however, we
print abroad as many papers a. our limited
means allow, bring them here, and ais
tribute them among tho masses We arr
sorry for the Russian nihlllsts. Louise
Miehels name is familiar 10 US, but we
know too little about her views 10 say
whether We indorse them or not.
Most japanese have very antiquatei
ideas. Neyert neless We must labor with
them IL we are 10 reyolutl0niZe our polit-
ical system, and We must move forward
little by little. Thus we conducted our
agitation for parliament, the advocacy OF
which WAS once penal ofYense. Now we
have the parliament we ask for more.
We are founding associations or s;ronps
undermining Of the aristocracy. We are
calling for a government by the people, in
which the lower classes will also partici
pate. We wish equal rights for all, and
we lock for the supporters OF this move
nent naturally among the working peo
pie. They must be won at any price. A
small part of the japanese people is very
radical. but only small part. / am found
ing schools in which women are educated
practically. Our party is called the Lib
crty party, and our organization is known
a-s the group system. The present system
of government is bound 10 be upset by u.s.
but how soon | cannot say"
