Senator Langford has introduced bill
20 require the Supreme Court to hold
its sessions in the Capitol building. 1t
is bill that ought to pass, but we sup
pose that it has no earthly show of sue
cess. 1t makes no difference to Sacra-
mento especially, and if it did. that is
not TO be considered This alone should
be taken into account, namely, that the
place for the Supreme tribunal is in the
State House. 1t is argued that most
litigation is in San Francisco, and
therefore the court should be located
there. SO, too, there is more crime in
San Francisco, let the State Prisons
therefore be located there. A purpose
of the law is to discourage litigation. 1t
is certainly true that the convenience
of the proximity of the court to the
lawyers and litigants of San Francisco
does tend to greatly increase the num-
Der of appeals taken. But it is also
true that a majority of the cases ap-
pealed should not go up to the court,
and would not, if it We're not for the
nearneSs of the court, and thus time is
gained and delay promoted. Yet with
the court at the Capitol building no liti-
CANT whose case has genuine merit
would go without justice.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man offers to Send His Dis
covery Free.
Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind

There is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so OverflOws with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world. in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered
1t is upon this principal that a resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich, desires to send free to
mankind prescription which will cure them
of any form of nervous debility; relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. As it
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might be
the final result ought to be deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them to
health, strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result OF many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need 1t
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy Mt once. A request to II c.
Olds, Box l7l2 Kalamazoo, Mich, stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
out Of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use of the medicine by giving ita trial
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came from
The prescription is sent free and although
ssme may wonder how Mr.. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine Cut this out
and send to Mr.. Olds so that he may know
who you came to write him. 12-2S-7St

that the new Governor Of Kansas is one of

solemnly remarked that the election Of a

Gated "a low standard of public opinion. D."

JAPANESE INVASION OF HAWAII.


immigration.
Washington, March 20.-Lorrin A.
Thurston eX-minister from Hawaii to
this country, now president of the an
nexation club of Honolulu, and here
in the interests of that organization
gave out an interview regarding the
news from San Francisco that the IIa-
waiian government, I'm refusing to al
low 537 Japanese laborers to land in
Honolulu, believed it had unearthed
an attempt to import Japanese into
Hawaii in violation of the immigration
laws. He characterized the subject as
one of the gravest now confronting the
Hawaiian government. He said
-Four or five immigration companies
have been formed in Japan, headed by
leading officials, including the present
japanese minister at Washington, and
they have the past year been bringing
large numbers of free japanese immi-
grants to Hawaii. 1t is serious
question whether this great inpouring
flood of men, almost unaccompanied
by women, viii not soon create a large
class of men unemployed and with
out means. The money produced by
the immigrants is provided by some
third party
THE Japanese in Hawaii now number
$4,000, against $4,000 native Hawailans,
and at the present rate within five
years will form a majority i'm the en-
tire country. Thus Japan and the Jap
anese would acquire the same moral
right that the Uitlanders are claiming
in South Africa. 1t is well nigh the
universal belief in Hawaii that the
present extraordinary movement from
Japan to Hawaii is part Of a systematic
plan, with the fun approval of the Jap
anese government, TO gain control of
the islands"
