KIOTO, Japan, June 15. — (Corres
pondence o ft he Associated Cress.) —
What many Japanese peo|>le regard
as an important political address was
delivered yesterday liy Baron Takaaki
Kato, former minister of foreign af
fairs, and leader of the government
Ooshlkni party, at a meeting of the
Kioto branch of his party. Alluding
to Japan's position in the present war
Baron Kato declared in his opinion
the Anglo-Japanese alliance must re
main the main pillar of the nation’s
diplomacy.
The speaker said that Japan would
gain a reasonable compensation in re
turn for the part she has played in
tlx* war, but he wished to emphasize
that Japan's position was different
from that of her allies in Europe, in
asmuch as Japan's activities have
been restricted to the Orient. The
statesman warned his compatriots
that should they expect too much from
the peace conference they would be
disappointed.
Turning his attention to the recent
attacks on the Anglo-Japanese alli
ance, Baron Kato expressed his re
grets that unfriendly comments should
have been made. It was certain, he
said, that they were confined to poli
ticians and lay academicians. What
tlie scholars voiced was the more dan
gerous. he declared, because although
these men may not know much about
practical diplomacy, the masses of
the people are likely to be misled by
t their scholastic attainments and be
lieve they are right. The ex-minister
added:
‘ It would be most regrettable if our
| people are led to any erroneous con
ception of the Anglo-Japanese alliance
for i regard it as the main pillar of
- our diplomacy.”
Baron Kato said he understood that
:: the critics bused their objections to
•* #
£ the alliance on the attitude of Brit
ish officials and merchants in China
£ who were alleged to be hindering Jap
£ anese undertakings in that country,
£ and on their belief that the formation
£ of an alliance with Russia would ren
der the pact with Great Britain use
£ less. It was true, he thought, that
£ some British merchants in China have
>*•'
£ ocntinually slandered Japan and her
£ people, but he was convinced that
these Englishmen did not represent
%• Great Britain.
Ac for allian/>o with Wnania
Baron Kato declared it the height of
' folly to imagine that it could be form
' ed and maintained independently of
the Anglo-Japanese alliance. He. for
one, would welcome an alliance with
Russia, he said, but he w-as convinced
that it could be made only on the
strength of the pact with Great Bri
tain and that it must be supplemen
tary to that alliance.
“When the peace conference is held
the Anglo-Japanese alliance must be
•the basis of our policy, and Japan
must, of course, co-operate with Rus
sia and France,” Baron Kato conclud
ed. “If Japan goes astray from this
| policy her position will become very
j difficult. It ft) most important that
* our people should recognize the deli
- cate diplomatic relationship and en
w deavor to smooth the way that lies
jjiefore us for generations to come."
Because of Baron Kato’s influence
among tho men who direct the Japan
of today his public utterances are re
garded by many of his compatriots
as more or less representiug official
opinion.

Bozeman, Mont.. June 17. — "Cow
puncher" cavalry as a feature of mili
tary training in western state institu-j
tions. notably state universities, will
be undertaken with the opening of the
autumn terms.
At a recent conference between
1’resident J. M. Hamilton, of Montana
State College, and Captain Tenney
Ross, C. S. A., of the general staff,
plans were outlined for the organiza
tion of a cavalry company at that
college, and arrangements were dis
cussed for spreading the movement
among western colleges. The Cni-j
versity of Wyoming, at Laramie, was!
; among the institutions cited as par-!
ticuiarly favorable ground for thej
project.
Captain Ross said that the United i
States government was prepared, to i
supply the mounts needed and to look [
after their care and maintenance and
that uniforms and equipment also
would be furnished. It was only ne
cessary for the school, he said, to
provide stable room for the horses.
Whether the company is organized
at Montana state depends upon the
number of students who volunteer for
the cavalry company. Captain Ross
said that 50 would be a desirable
number, but that the company would!
be organized if no more than 35 are j
willing to join.
