It was a quarter century after the triumph of the Republican, or northern party that a Democratic President was elected in the U.S. It is a half century since a northern man has been Premier in Japan. The new Premier of Japan, Kei Hara, was born at Morioka, three hundred miles or more north of Tokio, Japan. Here the unmistakably Aryan aborigines lingered longest. Early, in 1882, the future statesman, party leader, editor, champion of big business, and now Premier, gained his first experience in continental and international politics. For four years he was Consul in Tientsin, China.
