THE JAPANESE
GOVERNMENT
1t Has a Popular Form in Some
Respects, but Is Oil
garchicaI.
advertiser Correspondence. Copyright

by Frederic J. Haskin.)
TOXIC, April 1s.-While the Japan
csc constitution bases the government
upon popular representation and the
will of the people. and while these
forms are rigidly adhered to, Japan
has no such thing as popular govern
ment" in the American Interpretation
of the phrase. The Constitution limits
the Imperial power. but at the same
time ii. declares the Emperor to be
sacred and inviolable.'' The Impe-
rial Diet is organized and conducted
along the lines of the parliaments Of
other constitutional monarchies, but it
reflects the purposes sof an oligarchy
rather than the will of the people.
The responsibility of the cabinet to
the lower and popular house of the
Diet is practically admitted, but as
the House is essentially aristocratic.
this fact does not mean that the peo-
pie rule As a matter of fact, the
great majority of the japanese pub
lie knows little and cares less about
the affairs of government. The suf-
frage is restricted by property quail
fications, but even those taxpayers
who can vote take so little vital in
terest in public affairs that they are
easily corrupted, and hence Japanese
parliamentary elections are auction
sales of votes. The average amount
spent in brides by successful candi-
dates for the Lower House is said to
be about 5000 yen, or $500. As this
sum is widely distributed 1t is evident
that the average Japanese elector does
not place a high estimate upon the
value of his franchise.
1t must be admitted that the present.
form of government is superior to that
which obtained until fifty years ago,
when not only the Shotgun and the
various Daimyos, or feudal lords, but
even the hosts of Samurai, possessed
the right of life and death over the
common people. Nowadays if one
strikes a coolie he is almost certain
to go to Jail, be his provocation to
anger ever so great. 1t must also be
admitted that the present govern
ment is benevolent in many ways, that
it respects the natural rights of the
lowest classes, and that it is as a
whole wisely administered. But for
ali of that it is not truly popular"
The House of Representatives is
composed of 379 members elected by
male Japanese subjects of more than
twenty-five years of age who pay a
direct tax of at least IS a year. Japan
has population of 50,0G0,O00 people.
OF this number only one million is en-
with a population not quite twice as
great as that of Japan, the actual
voters number fourteen times as many
as the Japanese electors, and those
entitled to vote would raise the proper
ton much higher. In local affairs, not
only the actual persons who pay taxes
are permitted to vote, but the fran
chise is also extended to f'juridical
persons on the lists. Therefore cor
porations have a direct vote. In
