Owing to lack of space where this

export is nothing in comparison to
that of American millionaires in Eu-

1.-THE progressive legislation of Chi
nese exclusion laws are unreasonable.
"Since the first Chinese exclusion law
of 1882 the Chinese population has
steadily decreased, while the laws
against them have been increased un-
til they amount to persecution of the
race. Chinese are treated as criminals
and are always subject to arrest for
being in the country.
The Chinese exclusion law Is unrea-
sonable because it violates the treaty
stipulations made between the two
countries.

be expended in the building of canals,
esplanades, ornamental bridges and a

MURDERED MAN PASSED
UNDER ASSUMED NAME
Friend Identifies Him as Richard S,
Parry Instead Of Richard
p. Saunders

According to William Morse of 1876
Towne avenue Richard p Saunders
was an assumed name used by the
man who was killed by Miss M. H.
Williamson at the Piedmont rooming
house Monday afternoon
Morse says that he was Richard S.
Parry and that he came to Los An
geles from Crystal Lake, Mimi, two
years ago. He could not account for
the use of an assumed name by the
man, who he says was his friend, but
gave the Information that his rela-
tives in Minnesota might be notified.
Miss Williamson was taken to the
Piedmont yesterday by detectives and
allowed to pack her belongings and
arrange to close her business. She re-
viewed the scenes of the tragedy with
no evident emotion and at all times
exhibited a spirit of cheerfulness and
light -heartedness.
! She became sullen Wednesday after
noon and in fit of. anger attempted
to secure pair of scissors with which
she intended committing suicide, 1t Is
believed. The matron frustrated her
by removing the scissors.
Detectives have so far accounted for
$65 of the 5000 which Parry, alias
Saunders, is said to have possessed at
the time of his death. They discount
the theory of murder for purposes of
robbery.

Jacob Rechsteiner, who was treated
June 2S by DR.. Storey and is now in
the county hospital with but little
hope of recovery.
Storey says regarding the case:

Hearing of DR.. Storey 1 went to his
Office several times for treatment and
each time he strung me up in a head

the day that 1 was paralyzed I went
to his Office and after an examination
he told me he would have to jar my
neck as vertebra was out of place.
According to his directions 1 put my
hands in front of my face. he struck
me in the neck and rolled to the
floor unconscious. Since that time I

Doctors who have attended the man

there is general belief among the at

Wrongs of Chinese
In the support of the negative Ng
Poon Chew waxed eloquent over the
wrongs done his race. His answers
to Rev. RAIDERS statements were con-
else and pointed. He said:
THE exclusion of Chinese as a
measure for protecting American
workingmen against Chinese labor is
a fallacy. There was never a need for

point amounts to nothing more than
the oppression of set of foreigners
without votes by another set of for
eigners with the power of the ballot.
: Chinese exclusion is not necessary
because the Chinese people are not mi
gratory. All the Chinese in this coun-
try came from few districts in Can
ton province. No others could be in
duced to come.
"The Chinese never came in at an
alarming rate and as a rule never
came into competition with American
labor. Only In the shoe, cigar and
clothes manufacturing lines have Chi
nese and Americans worked together
During the twenty years of Chinese
exclusion Chinese laborers decreased
in number, so did American laborers
and the output. Chinese competition is
with other emigrants.

Right Of Exclusion

unjust, SAYS Ne PooN CHEW

"Chinese exclusion as a measure of
protection for American labor is fall
lacy. American labor needs no protec-
tion and the anti-Chinese crusade
amounts to nothing more than the OPP
preston of set of foreigners without
votes by set of foreigners with the

Ng Poon Chew, noted San Francis
co editor. was angry at the wrongs done
his people and hurled his defiance at
Rev. William RAIDER in their great de-
bate before the Venice assembly last
night.
Ng Poon Chew had the negative side
of the question, Resolved, that Chi
nese exclusion is reasonable and neces-
sary," while Rev. William RAIDER, also
of San Francisco, upheld the ofirma-
tive.
AS the first Affirmative Rev. RAIDER
introduced the subject, outlined the ex-
listing conditions and the stand taken
by the present administration.
Rev. Mr.. RAIDER Argues
In part Rev. RAIDER said: "The exclu-
sion of the Chinese is not urged upon
the grounds of prejudice. We have no
objection to their religion Joss is as
free as Jesus. No apology is made for
the Ill treatment of the exempt classes,
but 1 stand with the administration
when 1t declares for coolie exclusion.
THE question is not sentimental
one. 1t is question of national mean
ing. We should have uniform emigra-
tion laws. More foreigners landed on
our shores last year than there are peo-
pie In Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Sentiment goes down before such facts.
''T maintain that it is within the prov
ince of the state to restrict emigration
if it so desires. Exclusion is practiced
in nature, in every home.

necessary for at least two great rea-

rule. There is not another Chinaman in
California who has reached the posi-

make servants of the Chinese but not
citizens and soldiers. They bring with
them customs and vices which add to
our disorders. They bring sanitary con-
ditions which are menace to the pub
lie health. In San Francisco there have
been more deaths in the Chinese quar-
ter than in the city proper.
Rights Of American Labor
'The second argument is based upon
the rights Of American labor. Coolie
contract labor interferes with the ad-
justment now going on between labor
and capital. In 1862 there were 10000
Chinese-here. In 1877 there were 100000.

Speaker at Venice Urges the Need Of
Professional Mothers In Every
Town to Care for Offspring
Of Rich and Poor

"For the sake Of future generations

This is the bombshell that Mrs Char
lotte Perkins Gilman dropped into an
audience at Venice assembly yesterday
morning.

existing between the sexes drew an ex-

Education is no longer the work of

Incapable parents not only do not bene-

''The child is not your child-no, nor

the home Is the place for children. We

In the grand duchy of Baden cherry. apple. pear and walnut trees are planted 32 feet apart along each side of the road, a special department of the government having charge of the work and maintaining two large nurseries for the propagation of young trees
 When the fruit is ready for harvesting it is sold at auction on the trees. The years 1902 and 1909 were not especially good fruit years over there and yet in 1909 the crop from the highway trees brought s9055 and in 1909 $5731.
