Any other position would lead to the federal government taking out from under the laws of the states the citizens of another nation. But the citizens or aliens resident in a state must be held subject to its laws, and to exempt the alien would give him privileges over, and above those accorded to American citizens." Representative Mann, the republican leader, suggested the United States had the constitutional right to treat with foreign powers to secure for American citizens property rights abroad and that Mr. Sisson was con- AT CLOSE RANGE VISITS BERRY BOX FACTORY WHERE NIPPONESE WOMEN OCCUPY PLACES OF WHITE GIRLS PUBLIC SCHOOL AT FLORIN WHERE JAPANESE OUTNUMBER WHITE CHILDREN The Japanese problem in California as it actually exists on the farms and ranches of the Sacramento valley was viewed at close range by Secretary Bryan one day last week in the course of a two-hours' automobile run through the thickly populated Florin district, 10 miles south of Sacramento. Governor Johnson and Assemblyman Hugh Bradford, who accompanied the Secretary of State, were armed with facts and figures to explain the scenes that met the eyes of their visitor, and Mr. Bryan seemed deeply interested. His only comment, however, at the end of the trip was that he had seen "not only a Japanese colony, but a very pretty California valley." In the Florin district, embracing about 25 square miles of rich soil, there is a population of 1,500 Japanese farmers and 400 Americans. Twelve years ago there was not a score of Japanese in the community; now they practically control the grape and berry industries of that section. They own the factory where the berry boxes are made, and when the party visited the shop Mr. Bryan saw 35 Japanese girls at work. He was told by Governor Johnson that prior to six years ago American girls were employed there, at higher wages and with shorter hours of labor. An interesting stop was made at the district school of Florin, where the party visited the first grade. It was a typical schoolroom, with pictures of Washington and Lincoln on the walls, but in the seats below there were 22 Japanese children and 20 American boys and girls. The American youngsters were 6 and 7 years old; the Japanese included several who were 16, and so large that new desks had been supplied for them. When the party returned to the capital the senate was in the act of taking up for final consideration the bill that is designed to restore Florin and similar communities once more to Caucasian ownership. Representative Mann, the republican leader, suggested the United States had the constitutional right to treat with foreign powers to secure for American citizens property rights abroad, and that Mr. Sisson was contending that the foreign government did not have a similar right. Mr. Sisson maintained that the people of California had the right to pass laws regarding alien holding of land as in their judgment seemed best, when such laws did not infringe upon the federal constitution. Sisson discussed at length points of international law involved in the discussion and disclosed that California was endeavoring to do what Japan had already done. “If Japan now threats us with war what would she do when millions of her citizens have acquired lands in our country?” he said. “I lay down the proposition that an alien population holding land within our borders would be a fixed and constant menace.” ESPEE LOSES GRANT WORTH MANY MILLIONS Great Area of Fertile Lands in Oregon to Revert to People “The court orders that a decree be entered forfeiting these lands to the United States government, and that the government recover its costs and disbursements in this case.” By this simple statement of Judge C. E. Wolverton of the United States District Court at Portland, Ore., in the presence of a few attorneys, lands stipulated to be worth $30,000,000 and estimated by experts to have a value of $40,000,000 to $60,000,000, were taken from the Southern Pacific company and returned to the Federal Government. It seems probable that the case may be brought up for hearing there by October of this year, or possibly earlier. From there, no matter what is the decision, the case will go on to the Supreme Court of the United States for final adjudication. This case was instituted in 1908. Soon after B D. Townsend started his inquiry into the facts, A. W. Lafferty lead to the federal government taking out from under the laws of the states the citizens of another nation.

"I am with the people of California in their efforts to prevent these aliens from acquiring land." "I believe," said Mr. Sisson, that no non-resident alien should be allowed to hold a single foot of land in the territory of the United States. What would Washington say in answer to the question, war or submission? What would Jackson say? What would Cleveland say? What would McKinley say? "I resent the efforts of Japan to force us to submit to her demands." Mr. Sisson took the position that the Japanese government in protesting against alien land legislation was endeavoring to exempt its citizens from the operation of the laws of the states. "The president and secretary of state," said Mr. Sisson, "should assure en from the Southern Pacific company and returned to the Federal Government. It seems probable that the case may be brought up for hearing there by October of this year, or possibly earlier. From there, no matter what is the decision, the case will go on to the Supreme Court of the United States for final adjudication. This case was instituted in 1908. Soon after B D. Townsend started his inquiry into the facts, A. W. Lafferty filed about sixty private suits for men induced to locate on the lands. Townsend then filed the main case, demanding forfeiture of the 2,300,000 acres remaining unsold. The court ordered the Lafferty cases consolidated and later 4,000 or 5,000 interveners also appeared and also were consolidated. Lafferty proceeded on the theory that specific performance of the original grant should be had. Townsend was for forfeiture. In the final decree authorized today the Lafferty and all other intervening cases were ordered dismissed and the government's main contention for foreiture was declared the final verdict of the lower court. A total of 620,000 acres of the land has been sold, some as high as $40 an acre. In regard to the Union Trust Company's intervention, for which J. M. Gearin appeared today, the court ruled that the trust company owning $17,000,000 mortgage bonds on the land and property of the Oregon and California system, acquired an interest with full force of the conditions attaching to the grant and could not interpose the plea of an innocent purchaser."

Wit of San Francisco Newspaper Makes Reference to Recent Reception to Beebe and Elliott (E. F. Cahill in San Francisco Call, April 27.) Let us here record the generous enthusiasm with which "Buck" Beebe and Ray Elliott were received by the Anaheim board of trade and certain less distinguished but more noisy citizens of that prosperous town on their return home after their victories on the Stanford campus, where by the agency of their conquering legs they carried their high school into second place in the athletic competition among the aspiring youth of California. These eminent boys, one learns, were received in state on landing from the steamship Yale by a select committee of the local board of trade, attended by the high school student body and a brass band; and we learn further from the Gazette: "The victorious athletes were soon surrounded by their many friends, who were eager to shake their hands and extend congratulations on their success. The parade was soon started, with the band in front, followed by several machines, in the first of which Beebe, and in the second Elliott, were riding. Then came machines filled with students of the high school, singing, yelling and waving their pennants. At one point in the procession through town the machines stopped to allow of congratulations by merchants of the city, and then the parade was resumed and the party returned to the high school, where a rousing session was held." It was altogether a historic occasion, at which, we are told, "school songs and yells were rendered with a spirit never shown before for many years past, and there was danger for a time of the roof's cracking with the deafening noise." There was a banquet, of course, all trimmed with speeches in the customary fashion, "punctuated" with enthusiastic cheers for "Buck"; but this modest hero appeared to be embarrassed by the loud acclaim and the copious flow of civic pride, and his few well chosen remarks in reply were confined to these: "If you people were as near seasick as I am you wouldn't ask me to make a speech." Bully boy! The occasion was happily concluded with a speech from the president of the board of trade, who thereupon presented the returning heroes with silver cups. So of another like occasion, it was said that "it was a famous victory"; but when little Peterkin asked, "What State Legislature Passes Bill Forbidding Use of Roller Towels in Schools. The school roller towel, the public drinking cup, and the common shaving mug in barber shops are all put out of business in the Cassidy bills, which passed the State Senate without opposition last week. They are intended to check the spread of infectious diseases. The towel bill forbids the use of common towels in any public place. Another bill banishes drinking cups, glasses and vessels from all railroad trains and stations, schools, public buildings, halls, churches, theatres, playgrounds, parks, stores, hotels, offices, factories and public places. Barbers are forbidden to use cups, brushes, razors and other shaving instruments on more than one customer without sterilizing them in boiling water or in alcohol. Saloons, restaurants and soda fountains are required to "thoroughly cleanse" all cups and glasses each time they are used. MILLIONS ON WATERWAYS.
