J a prominent theme of discussion j WT throughout Japan. The question ofj ^ HOUp prohibition has entered into popular j ?* f V consideration of the problem in some i ^ localities. At a public meeting of Osa- -py ka barristers on February 14, report-j ed in the Japan Chronicle, Mr. Kiku-| ^ JM-fl chi, a prominent lawyer of that city, j - TH said that during the heated discus- j ^ MA sion among the Japanese 30 years TO ago as to whether a legislature JJL" ought to be brought into being or A Qmj not, many Japanese took the position 5* that the time was premature for its j J I immediate opening. He observed at ^ present some people were setting ^ their faces against the immediate WW7*11* adoption of universal suffrage on the a. Wlllu same ground, and he felt sure these A YvlIlK persons would be held up to ridicule A a few years hence for the out of date X. Car ideas by which they were obsessed. X Mr. Kukagawa ridiculed the idea ^ of attaching much importance to pay- ^ ment of direct national taxes in fixing the qualification as electors. He said that if a workman took three cups of sake each day he was virtu ally paying 21.60 yen ($10.80) in Qne Qf the do( sake tax a year. ]vn N y has ,.
