OKUMA was looking at the matter froin and the msttar has been left in the hands of the purely business point of view-no very beinous offence. If the Chinese were suddenly to organize a boycott of Japanese goods, we would not think it wrong to urge British merchants to seize the favourable opportunity to enlarge their turnover that is, if we thought they needed such unnecessary advice. That is where Count Oguma's almost senile folly peeps out.
