Japanese Want Our Friendship.

The Tokyo correspondent of the London
STANDARD says that the receipt of detailed
reports of the debates in the California
legislature on the question of excluding
Japanese from the United States has again
called attention to the subject. The press
comments are markedly moderate and SEN
sible, illustrating the high value that Is
attached to American friendship The
newspapers depiore the anti-Japanese feel
ing on the Pacific coast, but are convinced
that it is not national. The Jill urges the
Japanese in the United States to refrain
from any action likely to irritate the Amer
leans

CURIOUS POPULATION FIGURES

The average population of the Unit
ed States is 81 persons to the square
mile. The average population of the
proposed new state of Oklahoma is
22 persons to the square mile. OKLA
homa and Indian territory are ap-
proXimately as densely populated as
Minnesota, Arkansas, Kansas OF
Maine.
Oklahoma's population in the last
10 years increased 1000 per cent
With statehood in force, people ia
miliar with conditions in the two ter
ritories believe it will be 1000 per cent
in the next decade.
The density of population in the
proposed new state of Arizona is 2.6S
per square mile. These territories
have more people in proportion tc
area than the states of Nevada, Mon
tana, Idaho or Wyoming. But up ir
Massachusetts, people live S94 to the
/ square mile and this is the greates
density in the United States, exceptine
only the city of Washington.

oREGoN's STATE FLOWER.

In connection with the recent gifts
of Oregon grape sent by the Portland
Commercial Club to prominent East
ern people. George II. Hines gives
an interesting account of the origin
of the shrub, and its adoption as the
state flower of oregon.
The first known reference to the
shrub is in Parshs Flora of North
America" published by James Black
& Son, London, England. 1916, and it
is there first called Oregon Grape"
or "Holly-leaved Barberry."
"While considered a shrub the Ore
gon grape sometimes attains height
of II feet, with a diameter of four
and a half inches,' says Mr.. Hines. 81
have a sample of that size in my GUS
tody now. The flower blooms in
April, is very handsome, though deli
cate. and is bright lemon yellow in
color. The fruit grows in small clus-
ters. resembles small dark purple
grapes. and. while edible. is very
sour. but makes excellent jelly.
at was upon my motion, at a meet
ing of the Oregon Horticultural Socie-
ty in 1890 that the question of adopt
ing a state flower was first raised
my personal choice being the Oregon
grape on account of its permanent
LEAKAGE i'm variegated colors, accord
| ing to its exposure to the SUM- and its
marvellous adaptation for decorative
purpose at all seasons of the year.
After consideration by the above
society for two years in which the
| claims of other flowers were urged, il
was adopted on July IS, 1892. The
| Women's Federated Clubs of Oregon
secured the passage of resolutions by
both houses of the state legislature o
Oregon. 1899, formally declaring th'
Oregon grape to be the state flower

give Ireland up" sad Mr.. Brecken-
ridge, "but l believe Ireland is en-
titled to as much consideration as
Canada or Australia, and that the
Irish should be allowed to govern
themselves. believe il the American
legislatures passed joint resolutions
urging home rule for Ireland, that
England would take notice. 1t would
show England that while she boasts
of American friendship, yet the Amer
lean libertyloving people demand
that Ireland have home rule.
"The way England governs Ireland
is relic of feudalism. II has no place
in the twentieth century. The world
rails at autocratic Russia and benight-
ed China, yet Ireland is darkened by
England as much as the emperor of
China and the czar of Russia shadow
their respective countries.-Denver
Post.

Two EXTREME SENTIMENTS.


II seems strange to think that the
sWo opposite extremes of irrigation
sentiment, as represented in two bills
now before the legislature, should
both come from Umatilla county
members
In house bill No. 81. known as the
Cote bill, or the irrigation commits
sion's bill and in senate bill No. "a,
known as the Pierce bill, the extreme
poles of irrigation thought are rep
resented
The Cole bill contemplates the
state ownership of all unused waters,
ETnF makes water a property just as
tand, to be under strict regulation,
5sst as the unused public domain;
The Pierce bill says that water is alb
salutely no mans property. and that
every man has right to go upon any
stream and set up a notice that he
proposes to appropriate so much
Ester. The Pierce bill recognizes no
authority except the courts, while
the Cole bin says that the state is
tlfe owner and the custodian of all
unused Nater, and that proprietor
snip can come only through regular
application to the state authority and
a granted property right just as q
man acquires land from the public
RDnlain, after he establishes his pur-
pose to use II for a beneficial use.
The Pierce bill leaves the irrigation
rode of the state where it is today
declares that water is a public prop
erry. leaves the entire question dis
organized, without a head, and il
the bands of the lawyers and the
courts. while the bill prepared by th'
Irrigation commission and presented
10y Representative Cole, organizes th'
xubject Of irrigation on a practica
basis, makes all unused water th
