100000 over the aggregate Of the pre-
vious year.
OF those who are alleged to have OPP
Grated the fraudulent schemes, 1868 were

manipulators. who usually exploit bogus
mines, fake remedies and worthless

who have been caught by the inspectors
are criminals. who have posed as lead
ers in their communities and person :
ages in the highest social and business
circles Some Of them were millionaires

enlightened era This ERA may be said
to have begun before Mutsuhito assembled
the throne, but he succeeded his father
Emperor Komei, at the age of 10, and
the advance of Japan to a place among
the fully civilized nations has been prac-
tlcally commensurate with his reign.
That his personality had much to do
with this progress is fully testified to
by careful observers from Europe and
America, though his actual part in lead
ership is obscured by the oriental tradi-
ton of reticence concerning the mon
arch's person and the custom of giving
him credit for whatever of good has
been accomplished within the realm. He
is to be classed. at all events, with the
