Excerpt from The Secrets of the Japanese Government The manifesto further says that the great Japanese race has a brilliant future before it, through some achievement which is a secret to all the world, but which, in due time, will be performed. If Japan be justly entitled to such claim, she certainly must be able to show some accomplishments during her past history, which promise such a future. But the his tory of Japan, from the creation of the Empire to the time of its modernization, teaches that her people have, in their literature, art, industry, architecture, science, agriculture, and music been the pupils of China and Korea, and excelled their teachers only in a few branches of unimportant ciyilizatory labor, namely, hard pottery, lacquer work, the manufacture of fine silk goods, and decorative metal work. This shows plainly that Japan has, in all her industrial, agricultural and art work, her science and literature, produced nothing in the past that promises brilliant accomplishments in the future.
