he would be content TO serve as the prime

smooth working of any cabinet led by
Yamagata. This, however, could not be
expected of Okuma, who is one of the
most powerful men, intellectually, in the

be at all compared. If Okuma joins an

fine advantages in many respects over
even Okuma. In demanding his with

things should not be. People should
be careful in what they say. Stories

had a good time. Mrs. Mickey said
they were there FOR fun and give
