His aim, he said, would be to fur

The general view Is that the ap-

There is little doubt as to his
popularity, of which there have
been many evidences since his re-
turn from Europe. He has shown
a personal interest in various pop

The health Of the emperor has
long been a source of anxiety and
the naming of regent comes as a
relief from the tension.
