that the committee acted up to thei:

had no thought myself that this re-
solve would meet with this fate. For
the information Of the Senate, I would

understand my position, and the wants

COLBY COLLEGE.
Division Of College May
Come Next Fall.
The Work on Foss Hall Goes
Rapidly Forward.
Two New Departments Created-Other
Notes Of Interest.

Waterville. Me-, Jan. 27.-(SpeciaD.
The trustees of the college, at their
meeting, this week. in Portland, took
several important steps, Most i'm
portant was the action, anticipated
since last commencement, looking to
the establishment of a separate COL
lege for women. OF this college the
new Foss hall. rapidly nearing COM
pletiOn. is the nucleus Despite the
cold weather, this building is rapidly
being made ready for occupancy. The
electric wiring was completed some
time ago and the building has been
heated comfortably for the workmen
since Jan. l. The wing which will con-
tain the kitchen and the servants
quarters is plastered and the plaster
erS are now at work on the third floor
of the main building. The pastering
will be completed in about six weeks
At commencement time the new build
ing will be ready for the inspection of
the alumni and visitors, and next fall
it will be occupied as a dormitory
1t is expected that the division of the
ing of the college year. 1866. but the
matter of the time is as yet an unset
tied detail. What the new enterprise
at present needs is funds. and it's sue
cess will depend largely upon the spirit
with which the appeal is met by Colby
alumni and alumnae.
The trustees at their meeting took
another important action by creating
two departmets. biology and applied
science. Hitherto the work in these
two lines has been i'm charge of an in
structOr in biology and an associate
trustees raises Associate Professor
Arvid Reuterdahl and Instructor Web
ster Chester to full professOrships
Both gentlemen are well deserving
of the honor. Professor Chester has
been a member of the Colby faculty for
three years, and during that time has
done much to increase the efficiency
the work in biology.
Professor Reuterdahl. although he
has been in Waterville but a little over
four months. has made noticeable ad-
vances i'm the work of what is now a
department. Besides being the author
of a number of valuable theoretical ar
ticles in the leading scientific maga-
zines Professor Reuterdahl is we'll
versed in the practical side of his sub
ject. and has served long apprentice

the trustees. Mrs. Campbell-Parker is
entitled to one-third Of the personal
property in cash and the trustees do
not know from which fund to draw
this. The Diamond Hsad residence 1t

charged. Besides these several similar
questions are submitted.

BRECKONS 50 HOLDS
IN LEGAL OPINION
HOLDS THAT TERRITORIAL ACT
is CONTRARY TO CONsTiTU-
TON AND ALSO TO
TREATY.

IN All opinion delivered to the Ha-
wall Shinpo United States District At
torney Breckons shows that the Terri
torial law excluding Japanese from
public works is unconstitutional. This
opinion is in part as follows:
The fourteenth amendment to the
Constitution provides as follows:
mo state shall make or enforce any
law which shall abridge the privileges
or immunities Of citizens Of the United
States; nor shall any state deprive any
person Of life. liberty. or property
without due process Of law. nor deny
to any person within its Jurisdiction
the equal protection Of the laws"
This provision is also enforced by
Sec. 1877, Revised Statutes, which Is az
follows: ~
al! persons within the jurisdiction
Of the United States shall have the
same right In every State and Terri
tory to make and enforce contracts, to
sue, be parties, give evidence, and to
the full and equal benefit of all laws
and proceedings for the security Of
persons and property as is enjoyed by
white citizens, and shall be subject to
like punishment. pains. penalties, taxes.
licenses and exactions Of every kind.
and to no other"
The latter part of the amendment
NOR deny to any person within its
Jurisdiction the equal protection of the
laws" has in every instance in which
1t has been before the courts. been held
to cover the case of all persons. wheth-
er citizens or aliens, residing within
The jurisdiction; hence all aliens, resi-
dents within the Territory Of Hawaii,
are protected by the clause.
The law Of the Territory Of Hawaii.
certainly discriminates between per-
sons resident within the Territory.
By its terms all persons are not equal
ly entitled to acquire and enjoy prop
erty. BY Its terms, impediments are
lnterposed to the pursuits OF some
which are not applied to the same pur-
suits by the others.
The Territorial Act Is as palpably
aimed at japanese and Chinese labor.
as though 1t had said SO in as many
words. A very large percentage Of la
borers In the Territory are either jap
anese or Chinese. Under the laws OF
the United States neither Chinese nor
Japanese can become naturalized. The
act might just as well have said that
everybody but Jananeaa and Chineac
might be employed on public works,
irrespectively Of their citizenship.
am not prepared to say what my
opinion would be as to the validity oil
law preventing all aliens from en-.
gaging In public works.
Breckons further holds that the
treaty between Japan and the United
States, ratified In 1895. opposes the Ter.
ritorial law. which distinguishes clear.
ly between subjects Of Japan and those
Of other countries.

NO MORE LAND ENTRY REPORTS
Applications of Individuals Cause Re-
porter's Privilege to Be AnnuIIed.-
Only the Number Now.

For the past two or three weeks
The Record has been giving daily re
ports of the entries for homestead
and desert claims entered at the Gov
eminent Land ONCE. The service
must now be stopped, and the reading
public will have to do without this
part of the daily news Of Roswell.
And this was an item in which all
interested in the growth and settle
ment of the Valley took great inter
land Office officials for reasons. The
officials have been very kind and con-
siderate in assisting the reporter, but
it came to a pass where they had to
stop. Since the reports were publish
ed in The Record, various persons
have made application at the LAND of
fee to see h entry books. claiming
they had as much right to do so as
a newspaper reporter. The officials
could not answer this claim, and
could not let every man who desired
see the record, because the law pro-
vides that all who want to inspect
the books, must make clear their rea-
son. So to keep from discriminating,
the reporter is to be shut out with
the rest.
The number of entries each day
will be reported, however. There
were 3 homesteads and 5 desert
claims filed Saturday; one home
stead and one desert claim Monday.
Many people have asked for the
publication of these entries-hence
this long explanation.
