Gordon told himself there was but one

His captors took absolutely no

Tokyo, Japan--Japanese politics is

no claim to a perfect understanding Of

In the first place, It should be kept
In mind that political parties in Japan

men rather than measures, around
persons more thar principles. The his

may be divided into hye periods. as
follows:
1S67-1SS2-EmbryOnic period.
Notwithstanding period.
1890-1898-Developing period.
Observation-Disclosures period.
191l-Predominant period.
The chief political parties which
have been organized in Japan during
the past 80 years hayo all illustrated
the point just mentioned. The trst
party In the field was the tiyuto, or
liberal party, which was organized by
Count Chen MI Itagah. and which
consisted largely OF his personal fol-
lowing. The next party was the
nhimpoto. or progressive party,
which was started by Nj. (now COUNTY
Okuma and his friends. The chief diff

principles were concerned, was that
the liberals were more radical than
the progressives; but the greater diff.
ference was the personal one. Ia more
recent days II has been Ito and his
