But although Dorm fighters, brave to a fault and ‘one of Uke most punctlilious codes of that has ever beeu devised, their employ- as units of a modern army was attended this great difficulty, that they found them- frequently subordinated in position to men Were thelr social inferiors and who, except uniforms, Would have been compelled to them every respect. Discipiine, theretore, hard to preserve, and tue earoiineut of the Samuraé only served ‘to Mill the gap necessarily Between the two poles of feudalism ‘and conscription. The latter became law ir Japan in 1874, when the modern system may sirictly De said to'begio. “12 army regulauous were revised and the forces increased, by tue Official edicts of December 2%, ist}, aud these constitute the Japanese military system of to-day. The first article decrees universal conscripuon: “Every moale inhabitant of the country will be subject to service frou seventeen to forty years of ‘a Japanese land forces are divided into @ Standing army; b, Standing army reserve; ec. rves; d.
