5 Deutsche in Japan.
Ein kurzer Ueberblick über das, was
Deutsche für das rasche Wachsthum der
Kultur und des Wirthschaftslebens in
Japan geleistet haben, dürste zur Zeit
von besonderem Interesse sein. In

Generalquartiermeisters v. Meckel, der

Tic Entwicklung der parlamentarischen
Verhältnisse des Lnjelreichri.
Das japanische Parlament wurde
erst vor 14 Jahren, im Jahre ILM,
begründet. Doch schon lange vor dieser
eine Aktion Parlament, das aus 276
Mitgliedern bestand. Sämmtliche Mit
glieder dem Erbadel an und
aber ausschließlich aus Beamten be
stand. Auch dieses Parlament hatte
leine lange Lebensdauer, denn schon
ebenfalls aus Beamten zusammensetzte
und sich in erster Reihe mit Gesetzen
über die Beranstaltungen von Volks
tigte. Diese Gesetze.wurden 1879
Schritt zur Schaffung eines Volkspar
laments, das thatsächlich ein Abbild
und einen Spiegel der öffentlichen Mei
nung liefern sollte, war gethan.
Das japanische Voll gab sich jedoch
damit nicht zufrieden. In allen Krei
sen wurde eifrig für die Schaffung
einer wirllichen Voltsvertretung agi
tirt, und die Bewegung nahm eine
solche Ausdehnung an, daß ein Reskript
vom Oktober 1881 die Schaffung einer
solchen in Aussicht stellte. Die Aus
führung ließ etwas lange auf sich war
ten, denn erst 189« wurde der allge
meine Wunsch des Volles erfüllt. Ueber
acht Jahre hatte man sich damit be
schäftigt, eine neue Verfassung des ja
panischen Reiches zu schaffen, und der
thatkräftigen Initiative des Marquis
Jto ist es zu danken, daß die Aufgabe
in zufriedenstellender Weise gelöst
wurde. Die neue Verfassung und mit
ihr das Wahlgesetz wurden am 11. Fe
bruar 1889 belannt gegeben; fast zwei
Jahre später fand die offizielle Eröff
nung des Parlaments statt, am 11.
November 1890.

aus den Mitgliedern der kaiserlichen

Das Wahlgesetz, das für die Reprä

Jahre 1900 einer durchgreifenden Re

zahlte, wird jetzt einem jeden bewilligt,
der zu einem Satze von 10 Den (PS)
veranlagt ist; außerdem muß der Be

zu demselben Steuersätze, die beim
Stimmrecht in Frage kommt, erfor

das allerdings 30 Jahre betragen ri'uß.
In Folge dieser Reform hat die Aus
übung des Wahlrechts in den letzten
zehn Jahren ganz erheblich zugenom

rung ist die Vermehrung der Vertreter
der einzelnen Städte. Die Gefammt

betrug, hat sich jetzt auf 376 vermehrt,
und jedes Mitglied der Versammlung
erhält ein Gehalt von 2000 Den
