st. Paul, Dec. ls.--A special to the
Despatch from Grand Forks, n, D.,
says that the fuel situation today pre-
sents the most critical condition that
has existed in the history OF the state.
Careful inquiry in every portion of the
northern half OF the state shows that
there Is not town in which coal could
be had to supply immediate needs and
in dozens Of places there is not pound
to be bought, the dealers having been
out OF fuel for days and weeks.

"A boycott was maintained In San
Francisco from October 3 to October "a
by members of the Cooks and Walters
Union against Japanese restaurants do
ing business in that city. Nearly all OF
the leaders of labor organizations In
San Francisco interviewed on this sub
ject disclaimed any knowledge OF any
formal action being taken for the boy
cotting of these restaurants.
LAS a matter of fact, most erect
i've boycott was maintained against
nearly all of the Japanese restaurants
located in San Francisco for at least
three weeks. Pickets were stationed in
front of these restaurants and every ef-
fort was made to prevent people from
patronizing them. At times stones were
thrown and windows broken. and in one
or two instances the proprietors OF the
restaurants were struck by these stones.
"I am satisfied, from inquiries made
by me and. from statements made to
me by the Japanese restaurant keepers,
that the throwing of stones and break
ing of windows was not done by the men
picketing the restaurants, but by young
men and boys who had gathered in front
of the restaurants as soon as the boycott
was instituted.
Assaults have from time to time
been made upon Japanese subjects resi-
dent in the city of San Francisco. I
was informed by the chief Of police that
the Japanese consul he at once instruct
ed captains of police to make every ef-
fort to stop these assaults, and, If nee
essary, to assign men in citizens clothes
to accomplish the purpose.
These attacks, so / am informed,
with but one exception were made when
no policeman was in the immediate
neighborhood Most of them were made
by boys and young men; many of them
were vicious in character. and only one
appears to have been made with a view
of robbing the persons attacked. All
these assaults appear to have been made
subsequent to the fire and earthquake
in San Francisco, and my attention was
not called to any assaults made prior to
the 18th day of April. 1906
Il know that these assaults upon the
Japanese are universally condemned by
all good citizens Of California. For
months the citizens. of San Francisco
and Oakland have been terrorized by
numerous murders, assaults and rob-
berries, both at day and night. The po-
lice have been powerless. The assaults
upon the japanese, however, were not
made, in my judgment, with a view of
robbery, but rather from feeling of
racial hostility, stirred up possibly by
newspaper accounts Of meetings that
have been held at different times rela-
tive to the exclusion of Japanese from
the United States.
California, as manifested by the public
utterances of the Japanese and Corean
Exclusion league. by articles in many
OF the leading newspapers In the state,
by declarations of the political parties
In their platforms, and by the passage
of joint resolution by the state legis-
lature on March Z, 1905. is in favor of
the exclusion of Japanese coolies, yet

DR.. ]. F. caves TALKS.
Tells An Austin Newspaper About the
Future in Store for Southwest
Texas.

Dr.. ]. F. Eaves, quarantine in
spector at Brownsville, arrived
here yesterday to confer with State
Health Officer Tabor relative to
quarantine matters.
Speaking of conditions in that
section of the state, DR.. Eaves said
he had never before seen such a
steady flow of immigration into
West Texas. These are, as a rule,
homeseekers and prospectors from
the north, and a most desirable
class of people.
DR.. caves said that among the
many improvements which are I'M
der way in that country is the or
ganization OF an irrigation compa-
ny with plenty of capital, and it is
proposed to dig a main canal which
will be 800 feet wide just above the
town of Brownsville and this canal
will pass through the fertile lands
on the Rio Grande and furnish
water to irrigate thousands
of acres of lands.
To make that country an ideal
place for farming the water prob
lem was always III the way, as it
does not rain much in that section,
but with such vast irrigating sys-
tenn as it projected, this problem
las been solved which will result
n a quick aud wonderful develop
nent of all that section along the
Rio Grande river.
DR.. Eaves said that there had
lot been such a great advance in
he price of lands as would be gen
rally supposed, but prices are
maintained at a good, fair figure.

HOW TEXAS GAINS.
California Tourist Business Will Be Great.
ly LesSened and This State viii
Profit.

Houston, Tex, April 24.-This
evening ". c. Moore, a well
known real estate man, arrived in
the city from Los Angeles, Cal.
where he was at the time of the
earthquake and loss of life in that
part of America. He was not in
Los Angeles at the moment it got
the shaking up, but he is of the
opinion that the terrible calamity
to California will throw $4,000
tourists and settlers into Texas
within the next year. Upon being
asked about the basis of his reason
ing, he stated that the people in
the States who had intended to
visit California and others who now
lived there would come to Texas.
He was sure that a feeling of fear
had come into the hearts of most
of these people that would keep
them from going to or remaining
there. Mr.. Moore did not feel the
shock on account of being out of
Los Angeles at the time it was
shaken up. He is of the belief that
Sal. Francisco will never again be
what it was at the time of the
earthquake. He believes that hun
dreds of people who lived there at
the time will leave for other parts
of the country.

THE following from a recent is
sue of the Austin Statesman hits
the nail so squarely on the head,
that it is reproduced without fur
ther comment:
The Denison Herald announces
an strong terms that the man who
does nothing to advance the inter
ests of the city and is more of a
barnacle than anything else is al
ways ready to make his roar when
an effort is made to do something. I"
The Herald is unquestionably right,
and i'll some few instances towns
are unfortunate enough to give
support to newspapers that are
constantly trying to undermine
every interest of the town.
