The Japanese justified their imperialism in multiple different ways, depending on what territory is in question.
For China, there was a fake attack on Japanese property, performed by the Japanese themselves, so they invaded Manchuria with the justification that their citizens were in danger.
Korea and Taiwan were justified in the sense that some countries had colonies which they used for resources and as market for their products, so the Japanese justified it in the manner that they also deserve to have such territories.
For some territories they conquered there was no real justification though, and the Japanese didn't really bothered with making excuses anymore.

After the economic depression of 1893, the main issue was the country’s money supply,and even the Democratic Party—was split between those who favored the gold standard and those who favored free silver, a type of currency inflation, to help alleviate the depression.
Mark Hanna ( Mckinley`s friend) raised millions for a campaign of education with trainloads of pamphlets to convince the voters that free silver would be harmful.
