which I very much doubt, 1t will never be war of aggression. Your greatest danger turks in your marvellous eco homie condition Most Americans thought you settled that in 1865, but you did not. That condition still con fronts you"
 "And that condition Is whatY
 "Uncongenial population and com mercial pride. mean by commercial pride the aggregation of great wealth which naturally follows"
 Has your government envious eyes on the Philippines?'
 Tt has not. Japan does not want the Philippines. Japan would almost pay the United States to keep them. Japan realizes that the United States Is not 8 fighting nation. The United States ,nev- er looks for trouble. The United States Is a conservative trade inducing coun- try. It occupies almost the same posi- i ton in the affairs of the world that England did fifty years ago. That Is why Japan prefers that the American , flag should fly over the Philippines. In 1 the celebrated expression of Mir. Blaine, ] 1t is an anchor to windward.' We had 1 trouble enough on the other side" twill Japan ever be republicT' 1 Never. Japan is today constitu- tional monarchy of the very highest order. It may still even be better. It 1 Is a democracy without the handicaps 1 that follow in the trail of loose politics. I have no doubt that our form of gov l ernment, liberal as it is, will be much i more liberal in few years. We are absorbing the western ideas as fast as we can. A great many of our young men go to the United States, also to England, France and Germany, for their education. They come back to Japan with this western knowledge and full of these western ideas, which makes for the good of the country" 1 DO they also bring western religions with them?"
 "Japan Is an absolutely free country ] as far as religion goes-quite as free as the United States. This religious l freedom not only exists in Japan, but also in all of the Japanese colonies There will be no mailed hand of re ligion put on Korea or Manchuria ! There has been none put on Formosa Any man can worship in any way he pleases under the Japanese flag"
 Do you encourage Americans tc \ come into Japan for commercial pur posesT'
 Most assuredly. Americans will b' gladly welcomed in any legitimate way. American geniuses and Ameri can promoters will find an open field in Japan to exploit their endeavors Japan Is not a manufacturing country American genius runs to manufactures We not only welcome them, but we an ticipate good results and national pros perity with their advent There is nt trade rivalry between the two na tions.
 This country of the United state' is so big, so strong and so -prosperou
 that it can well afford to take unde

May Be Two Candidates for the GOV
 ernorship.
 Boston, Oct 7.-The only drawback to unanimity in the voting at the demo- cratic state convention at Fanueil hall in this city today was the possible eil- trance as a candidate for governor of former Mayor John H. H. McNamee of Cambridge. The state committee had arranged slate headed by General Charles W. Bartlett of Boston as the candidate for governor and Henry NJ. Whitney of Brookllne for lieutenant governor. Efforts had been made to induce MT McNamee to withdraw. He seemed determined, however, to go into the convention because he had been given the support of the delegates from Medford and Cambridge and of some from the western part of the common wealth. The remainder of the ticket as agreed upon included Henry M. Lit tie of Newburyport for secretary of state, John P. Leahy of Boston for at torney-general. Patrick !. Ashe of North Adams for auditor and Daniel ]. Doherty of Westfield for treasurer and receiver general.
 The platform to be presented by the committee on resolutions was under stood to contain plank favoring mild or gradual municipal ownership, a declaration against federal supervision of insurance companies and reciproci- ty plank almost identical with that pro posed by the committee of 100 of the Boston chamber of commerce. of which Henry NJ. Whitney is president.
 Former Congressman John R. Thayer of Worcester was selected as perma- nent chairman of the convention. which was oDpned at n o'clock
