Count Itō Miyoji (伊東 巳代治, May 7, 1857 – February 19, 1934) was a statesman in Meiji period Japan. He was a protégé of the leading oligarch Itō Hirobumi .As cabinet secretary 1892-1898, he was a powerbroker between the oligarchy and the political powers in the Diet. He grew increasingly conservative and became a watchdog and defender of the constitution in his role as privy councillor, 1899-1934. Biographer George Akita calls him a political failure.
