Social Sciences - History / Japanese colonial history (Meiji Era)
Japanese term or phrase: 俠復する
A critique of Japanese colonial administration policy written in the late Meiji Era.
Here's an excerpt from the sentence:

「自治行政ノ慣習ヲ俠復するが如きハ、蓋し其急務中ノ急務ナルモノナラン。」

As for the word I am looking for, google search results only yielded some texts written around the same period. Going by context, it seemed to mean 征服 in some instances, but I just couldn't be sure.

Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Explanation:
「恢復」の誤りかと思われます。

従来同島に存在せし所の自治行政の慣習を恢復するが如きは、蓋し其急務中の最急務なるものならん

Explanation:
It looks like you are looking at OCR'ed (scanned) hardcopy document and the software application made a mistake to recognize characters, 恢復=回復, which means to reinstate, recover, regain... to put it back what it used to be.
