It has been said by some authorities that Saigo had de- termined to profit by this advice when he was beleagued at Shiroyma, where he was struck down by a bull let and beheaded by one of his lieu. tenants to spare him the disgrace of falling alive into the enemy's hands. At the close of the successful cam- paign, Yamagata received the first class order of the Rising Sun and was appointed successively Chief of the General Staff, home minister, and minister of justice, in which two lat ter capacities he reorganized the system of local government and ef- fected far-reaching judicial reforms.
 During this period when the coun- tryls was witnessing the beginnings of constitutional government, Yama- gata visited Europe again to study the local self-government systems, and on his return the Emperor sum- moned him to form his first cabinet, which lasted from 1889 to 1901.
 In the war with China, Yamagata commanded the First Army Corps, winning decisive victories at Ping yang and n-lien-cheng. He rep resented Japan at. the coronation of

 Tn the Russo-Japanese war he was Chief of the General Staff. and when Prince Ito went to Korea as resi- dent general in 1905, Yamagata suc- ceeded him as president of the Privy Council
 Prince Yamagata was conserva- tive to the last and resented the principle of party cabinets to which Prince Ito, first among the elder statesmen. committed himself by the organization of the Stiyu-kai, and he was openly denounced by the younger and more progressive political ele- merts as reactionary whose influe- ence was consistently exerted for the purpose of weakening the spirit of constitution government, but among his followers.

It was dif- ficult task and a dangerous one to combat that tradition, but he suc- ceeded in getting an Imperial edict of abolition. and was forceful enough to have it obeyed. Shortly afterward, however, the edict was withdrawn, and another substituted by which the privilege of wearing the sword was extended to all classes.

 In 1873, he received the war min- ister's portfolio, when he was only thirty-six years old, and on the out break of the Satsuma rebellion in 1877, he went to the front as Chief of Staff of the Imperial forces.

Though an aristocrat of aristocrats, his superior ity took the form of treating those who had occasion to deal with him. no matter what their status, as if they were his equals. and in Japan etiquette ordains that equals shall be treated as superiors save in the case of intimates Among the lat ter Prince Yamagata was cores pondingly genial and unaffected.

 The Princes popularity was some what beclouded in October, 1921, when he publicly announced his op- position to the marriage of Prince Regent Hirohito and Princess Na- gako, a prospective alliance espe- cially pleasing to the Japanese peo- pie. Opponents of Yamagata charged his opposition to jealousy of the as- tendency of the Satsuma clan, to which the Princess Nagako was re- lated through Baron Makino, the Minister. of the Imperial Household.

SABBATH SCHOOL LESSON
For July 2. Eek. 2, 3
BY DIR. MARION NIGH. HULL

pudent, hard-facad, hard-heartec,
stiff-necked. They had rebelled as
their fathers has done. Ezekiel was
not to be afraid Of them or discour-
aged when they refused to hear and
heed. 49,. ,.
3. He was to speak to himself,
lest he himself be like the people
about him. He was to eat the book
that was written without and with
in with lamentations and mourning
and woe. When he proved that he
was not rebellious by eating it, he
found it as honey for sweetness be-
cause it contained the will of God.
He was to be first impressed before
he could express. His own life must
be yielded to the will of God before
he could ask the people to yield thei-'
wills to the will of God. Then know
ing the will of God himself and
yielded to it, he could speak to them
with a face as hard as adamant
against their adamantine forces;
their disobediehce would not be be-
cause of an intellectual difficulty
for they could understand every
thing he said to them, but because
of moral blindness, because they
would not see.
4. 1t was to be an individual respon-
sibility. Heretofore they had been
speaking to the nation as a whole.
Now his message was to be to in
dividuals. He was to be a Waterman
warning individuals of their danger.
The results were not his RESPONSE
bility, the warning was. If he warned
and they Needed not, they were re-
sponsible. If he failed to warn, the
the responsibility was his.
5. Lastly he was to speak what God
said-that, no less, no more. AS he
came out of his ecstasy and came
in control with the people and their
sin he was dumb for seven days, un-
til God opened his mouth and then
he spoke.
Ezekiels life has much of applica-
ton now. Every man who speaks for
God must have vision Of God. 1t
probably will not come in ecstatic
vision as Ezekiel's did but there
must be a time in every mans life
when he has a definite experience
Of God. Until that time he may have
all the intellectual knowledge of God
that it is possible for books and ma
ture to convey, but that is insult
ficient.
On the other hand, the man who
has seen God necessarily has a mes
sage for men. The vision will make
him appreciate his own nothingness,
the need of the men about him, the
necessity for his yielding himself be.
fore he asks other men to yield, and
the responsibility which rests upon
him to the individuals with whom
he comes in contact. The results,
thank God, are not our concern, but
His. Like Ezekiel, too, we may not
have large field; but. like him we
may reach world through the small
group for whom we are RESPONSE.
BILE.
Son of man, go shut myself with
in thy house; when God speaks to
thee, open thy mouth, for He has
made thee a watchman; if thou
warn not and he die in his iniquity
his blood will God require at thine
hand Nav Won he blood ruthless

GOVERNOR HARDWICK
ASKS FOR REFORMS

to explain that he had employed the
Chicago firm of Griffenhagen and AS
sociates to make a preliminary sur
vey of certain agencies and depart
ments and institutions, and to thor
oughly analyze the states fiscal sys-
tenn. This firm, he said, is composed
of "the greatest experts in govern
mental efficiency in the country"
and they sent to Georgia two Of
their very best men, Fred Telford
and Hugh J. Reber. The governor
submitted to the legislature the re-
port Of these Investigators and urged
the most serious consideration of the
same. He also recommended an ap-
preparation to have them complete
the departments and institutions not
covered in their report.
Tax Revision Urged h..
Biennial sessions were urged by
the governor for two reasons first,
because they would save about $780,
900 a year; second, because they
would tend to discourage "toD much
legislative tinkering with our laws,
which disturbs business and general
II anQuility."
The governor also urged the en-
Gctment of legislation establishing
the Australian ballot system, Sc as
to accord every citizen the eight of
a free and untrammeled ballot"

scented at ierg 9Th his views regarding
tax revision. He said he -ia5 no

est" Invisible property, he declar-
ed, virtually goes untaxed, while
visible and tangible property carries
the principal burden. In this con-
nection he cited numerous statistics
in support of his contention.
AS a substitute for the ad Valorem
system, he proposed a state income
tax, declaring it would furnish a
just, equitable and efficient means
of obtaining rev-nue from invisible
property. He pointed out here that
state income taxes could be deduct
ed from income taxes due the feder-
al government.
