DOESN'T WANT TROUBLE
With the Americans or Any One
Else and CassJTot Afford to1
Break Peace 8jeaker Eat f!
Studied .the Question. t s
(Chicago Record-Herald.)
"Sheer nonsense." .:
Those were the two words lnwhioi -Thomas
J. O'Brien. American smbaaaa-
dor to Japan yesterday summarised Sate
lews on the talk of war between tola '
country and tAt of the mikado. 0a fa-
Iterated the same two worda aa plt
roiling his opinion of the speech of Capi-
ta in Richmond Pearson Hobsojt bsfdre
the resolutions committee of the demo
crattc National convention. In which fbs
liero of the Merrimac Incident forecast a
dire and dreadful oon f net between Amer-
icans and the little brown men 01 Ute
land of the chrysanthemum. e
But Mr O'Brien I who has been ambea-
sador for the last year and who has
given close and detailed study to Jap-
nese conditions and to Japanese feeling;' '
differed entirely from Captain Hobson.
Hf also differed from the rank and fUV
of theorists who declare that "war must
come sooner or later between Amerta
and Japan and probably sooner."
NO CHANCE FOR WAR.
In Mr. O'Brien's opinion there Is aa"
more chance of war between America aad '
Japan than there Is between America -and
any other country on the map. Tit ' "
ambitions of the Japanese. Mr.' O'Brien'
concludes from his observations In tl
land of Nippon ant commercial rather '
than military. .
The ambassador reached Chicago it"
noon yesterday by the. overland limited
from Ban Francisco. He left Japan on '
June 29. Last night he want to his heme
In Grand Rapids Mich. He comes to
this country on private business only". .
"Sheer nonsense Is what I should term
this palaver about war between Japan '
and America" said Mr. O'Brien. '$
"What would you call Captain Hok- "'
son's speech before tire resolutions con-
mittee at Denver?" asked the interviewer. '
"I should call that sheer nonsense'
too" said the ambassador with a smUa';.
NO CHIP ON SHOULDfcR. ' '
"It is a matter of sober fact that the.
Japanese as far as one can learn by - -close
observation and by being; brought
in contact with their leading men are nol
Inclined toward war at all. Tbey do not
want war either with the United States
os with anyone else. The picture of Ja
pan as a bloodthirsty nation. Its bead os
fire with the lust of conquest and with a
very lage chip on Its shoulder la quite ab-
surd. Japan Is looking forwiard to s)
future of commercial greatness above all :
else. Her eyes are not fixed upon war
conquest and bloodshed. Japan wants t
be a great commercial country a great
manufacturing country and a wealth
country. She is seeking to extend kef :
markets wherever possible to Increase ' :
the scope of her manufactures to ope "J
up new markets and to add to ber mer
csntlle marine.
"I find In Japan a sense of surprise over
the tslk of the possibility of war of
which our-newspapers were so full some
time ago. In Japan Americans are pop-
ular in tli extreme. Japan regards aa
as her most important customer and the L
country as the one with which above all.
sue musi nisiiiiBiii irienuiy anu uiun n.'.;!
lations. We take about half of her ex- ''
ports today and are by far her largest
customer She also buys quantities of t
material from us. The money which
Americans pour Into Japan each yea c
-for Japanese goods especially silks la L
of much importance to the Islands. Japan
appears to have no intention of doing!
anything to Interrupt the course of trade
and the maintenance of friendship be-
tween herself and America.
"I really think that Americans are fully
ss popular with the Japanese as are the) y
English If not more so.
LIKE THINGS AMERICAN.
"And this despite the fact that England.-
has an alliance with Japan. But the
Japanese seem to have a deep llklngf
for America and for things American.
although there Is regret over our ex
elusion policy. The genius of the Ameri-
can people seems to appeal to ths Jap-
anese. A very significant thing is the
large numbers of Japanese students woe
are sent here every year. -y
"The students that Japan Vends te-
America are the men who are going to do
things. The men In Jepan at present
who are doing things who are having-
a great Influence on the government
are men who have been educated ia the .
Vnited States. The universities of Amerte"
can send back to Japan a large propor
tlon of her doers her men of action.
This will. If conditions continue as the
are become Increasingly true in years JtO
come. .
"The consequence will be that ultimate-
ly the men who really govern Japan
the men who are of prime Importance
In the handling of the affairs of the na-
tion will be men of American education.
The Importance of such a state of affairs
can not be overestimated for It Is no-.
tiresble thst men who go back to Japan .
after having been educated In the United
(Mates show to an enormous effect the
Influenre of American training. They-
hvo absorbed the American viewpoint In
many regards. They have been so Im-
pressed by American methods that tbey
are ready to make American methods
theirs In many respects. All this Is hav-
Ing and will have deep effect on the re-
lations between America and Jape1'
REGRETS HOBSON'S SPEECH.
Mr. O'Brien regretted the speeches'
Captain Hobson both In congress and 1
fore the resolutions committee. The! am
bassador said that Hobson's speech s
congress which was along the :
tine his more recent utterance ' hm"
Denver had attracted attention In Japan
and had to some extent an unfortunate
effect. Much weight however la not at- "
Inched to Hobsouinn utterances In Japan
said Mr. O'Brien. IX
Mr. O'Brien will remain In the United;".
Ptates for a fortnight attending to petS';.-
sonal affairs. He will go home by wy r.
of Kurope and the Trans Siberian rail-1
road. The ambassador will reach Japan
during the flfst week of October In time
for the arrival of the American fleet hi
Japanese waters on October 17. The
Japanese said Mr. O'Brien are making
extensive preparations to give the fleet
a rousing welcome. .-
