dragon, and in the course of a few
years it is likely that Japan will ex-
ercise at least a commercial sover-
eighty over the great empire at her
doors.
Despite reports to the contrary,
Japan has not the least desire to fight
the United States with the weapons
of warfare. They do not care where
the feet of Uncle Sam may go, but
they are higIy interested in the meth
DDS of manufacturing any article of
commerce. In the coming warfare,
the admirals and generals of the
army and navy will have nothing to
do. The captains of industry will be
kept busy, very busy. The Japanese
do not care what goes on at West
Point or Annapolis. What they desire
is ammunition for the educational
guns of Japan's great industrial
school system. Moreover, they are

methods of all nations have been ae-

with the result that the Japanese
schools are now a century ahead of
those of other countries in supplying
industrial training
Japan has more than fifty times as
many industrial schools, supported
by the government. as are to be found
in the United States or any other
country of Europe-perhaps more
than all other nations combined. To
students in these institutions, the
government grants postponement of

tary service, and preference in civil
service appointments. This great
system of Industrial education has
been brought into existence since
1890, when the first school was es-

is not alone against the United States

countries shrink into insignifieance
beside that of Japan.
1t is not alone in this country that
men are being trained for the great
warfare to come. In the United
States and in every capital and indus
trial center of Europe thousands Of
Japanese are enrolled in the univers!-
