Japanese servants arrived in Johannes
burg, as cook and waiter at the hotel Of
which Mrs. H. L. Squires is proprietor.
There has always been strong senti-

labor in the district, and last fall three
Chinese were run out of camp. This
evening largely attended mass meet

matter and request the discharge of the
Japanese. The meeting was called to
order at the Hollenbeck restaurant By
Oscar M. Peck of Johannesburg After
considerable discussion a committee Of
five, namely, Messrs. Thompson Perdue,
Maloney, Brown and Arthur Finch, the

state that unless the Japanese left town
on the morning stage, or the afternoon
stage at latest, there would be trouble.
The request will not be complied with,

meeting here tomorrow evening. Whi,e
