Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1900-09-01

Mutsuhito was declared his successor on
the mating throne. At this very mo-
ment the clans hostile to the anarchy
of The Throne and the Camp" having
compelled the resignation of the tycoon,
formed a military combination and pre-
pared for the coup d etat of January 3,
1SGS.
On that day they displaced the palace
guard, kept by the Aidzu clan. tool
possession of the gate, and allowed none
but those favorable to their views to
come near the emperor. When the vac
iliatlng keiki. the eX-tycoon, attempted
to re-enter kioto in force, the new gov
n declared him a rebel. He was
beaten in the battle of Fushimi, and in
disguise fled to Yeddo on the United
States war steamer %Iriquois. The two
years civil war ended wnen the IRON
clad ram Stonewall was handed over to
the mikado's forces by the American
minister, General Van Nalkenburg.

behind a screen, to tread the earth and
to move the capital nearer to the scene
OF future events, the young mikado came
in person to the meetings of the council
of the new government.
Most appropriately, of Echizen
province. in which the old Franklin of

forms and had lectured on political sci

TIRE M|KADO AND HIS FINE KINGDOM

The mikado Of Japan expects to profit
by this war with China more tina any
OF the other rulers of Europe and Asia
will profit. From the first he has spur
red on his troops to the enemy's punish
ment and at the initiative great battle
the japanese bore the brunt of the fight.
The mikado himself is not in the fray.
for the japanese would not spare their
ruler in war, nor run the risk of his losing
his head before the Boxers spear; but
from afar he governs his troops and is
the ideal minister of war, from the
throne.
Always slightly inclined to be warlike
the japanese have insisted upon their
rights, where china was concerned With
a persistency that demanded the respect
of the powers. In the japanese and Chi
nese war they showed what they could
do at sea; and now on land they are
showing their proWess again.
ForSssein2 the scrap nat must in
evi.aGIy come, The mika3o. like an ex-
cellent general, has kept his troops
prepared and at a moments notice they
went into battle.
China lays all the blame of her trou-
b!es and her loss Of prestige to the mi
kado. This remarkable man who has
the power of coming to the front al the
right time, is a stranger to the world,
SO quietly does he hide in his Own king
dom.
JAPANESE LAW.
1.-THE empire of Japan shall be reigned
over and governed by a line of emper
ors, unbroken for ages eternal"
These words constitute Article l of the
Constitution of Japan, promulgated Feb
ruary II, 1899, exactly to the day, almost
to the very hour, 50 years after the
American treaty ships We're sighted from
ldzu. On November 8, 1900, will occur
the birthday of the emperor of Japan,
who in his ne-th oldest of existing
political dynasties in the world-stands
officially the 121st.
The emperor, whose name means lit
orally "~gentleman," opened his eyes in
the sacred city of Kioto on November
3, 1852. Very curiously, in the view of
Americans, this was just about the time
that Commodore Matthew C. Perry re-
ceived his orders to proceed in the
steam frigate Mississippi to make a
treaty. with Japan. AS all know, Perry
went to the tycoon's headquarters, near
Yeddo, and never knew till the day Of
his death how real, though hidden, was
the sentiment Of the Japanese people to-
ward the mikado, who stood to them as
the Son of Heaven and the representa-
tive on earth of the gods that created
Japan first and the rest of the world
afterward.
Mutsuhito was the second son of the
Emperor Komei, who reigned from 1S47
to 1867, dying at the g of 81. His
mother was the Empress Asako. Her
family name was Fujiwara, she being

have raised japan to a position Of re-
spect before the whole world. They did,
indeed, keep back for nearly q years
the fultillment of the imperial promise
to form a representative government.
Even after the PRONUNCIATION of the con-
stitution in 1889 they trieu to keep the
mode Prussian rather than British. But
at last elan government in which the
men chiefly of Satsuma and Chosfhu
formed a monopoly of power, Is over.
Party government has at last triumphed,
and in 1900 Japan's political system is
nue. more like that of Great Britain
than like thai of Prussia.

OF that illustrious family which, before
the domination of the military clashes
IN the eleventh century, furnished most
OF Japan statesmen and which since

means Witaria meadow. The young Son
OF heaven grew up within the precincts

nance of Murasaki Shikibu in her still
famous poem, "Genji Monogatari." now

For six centuries since the lady wrote
and the artists spread their brilliant coll
ors, court life changed but astouisbinely
little, for the eyes of Japan. as those of
emma, were upon the past and NOT upon
the future. Even III all the great papers
OF state, including the constitut4n, the
lretense is made that pretty much all the
progress, wealth and blessing which the
japanese of today enjoy is not the re-
suit OF contact with the West nor of the
forces, literature or moral ideas nour-
ished by Occidentals, but is purely and
solely the result of the benevolent care
and affectionate vigilance of, the divine
ancestors of J~apan-who came from

Broken Brio a rracs.

Mr.. Major, the famous cement man OF
New York, explains some very Interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but ii great
many do not know why. The simple
reason is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr. Major tells rs that
one of the elements of his cement costs
So. rs punnd, and another costs 50 6o
gallon. while large share OF the SO call
ed cements and liquid glue upnn the
market are rothlng more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved N water or citric
acid, and, in some cases. altered slightly
IN color and ouOr by the addition of
cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents
and twenty-five cents Il bottle, aud when
dealer tries to sell a substitute You can
depend upon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors Cement is as
mnch as any dealer ought to make on
any cement And this is doubly true in
view of the fact that each dealer gets his
share of the benefit of Mr. Majors adj
vertsng. which now amounts to ''yer
$4,000 month throughout the country
