CHEAP JAPANESE LABOR
Statesman Says 1t Will All Be at Work
in Japan Soon, with None TO
Come Here.

Chicago, Feb. 13.-The cheap Jap
anese labor which the citizens of the
United States appear to fear will soon
be a thing of the past, according to
Representative Mckinley, of California,
who was the principal speaker at the
eleventh annual banquet of the Chica-
go Credit Mems association here.
Mckinley described the growth
in manufacture plants in Japan, and
predicted that within a few years, be
cause of this increase, the labor of that
country would be discouraged from inn
migration to the United States. This
sort of labor, he said, would all be
used by the Japanese to fill the fac
tories which are now being built in
that country

COLUMBUS INUNDATED
Nebraska Town Invaded by the Wat
ers Of Loup River-Four Per-
sons Drowned.

Columbus, O., Feb. 13.-The roar of
rushing waters, the crushing of ice
and the cries of drowningpeople shout
ing for help broke upon the ears of
Columbus people last night. The break
ing of an ice gorge in the Loup riv-
or few miles northwest Of the city
caused the water to rise over five feet
in an hour, reaching the highest point
within the memory of the Oldest resi-
dents. \ family of four, Doe Nc
Cone, his wife. daughter and sister-in-
law, were drowned while attempting
10 escape to higher ground in a spring
wagon. The team was also drowned.
The whole south side is under water,
and many families are imprisoned in
houses surrounded by from four to ten
feet of water. A large number of
hogs and cattle was drowned III the
Union Pacific stock yards. Rescue par
ties in wagons, and c. c. Jones with a
hunting boat, are doing heroic work,
but many who are shouting for help
cannot be reached until the water goes
down.

Adams made a confession in which
he cleared up a score of murders of
non-uniOn men and the attempted
murder of judges who ruled against
the w. F. NJ. but now he has repudi-

forced from him by the police.
After the first panel of talesmen

Adopting an Heir In Japan.

The custom of adoption is universal
In Japan, where it is practiced to keep
a family name from becoming extinct.
Indeed, there is scarcely a family in
which it has not at some time or other
been observed. A person who has no
male issue adopts a son and, If he
has daughter, often gives her TO him
In marriage. A youth or even o child,
who may be the head Of a family, oc-
casionally adopts, on the point Of dy-
ing, a son older than himself TO sue

Letting the unprotected RATS as their
place Of escape.
Captain McYey remained on the up
per deck directing his officers and crew
until every one on board appeared to
have been cared for. He ordered all
lifebOatS and RATS cut away, and be-
fore he stepped into his own boat he
stood on the upper deck a moment to
see that his order was executed. Then
he ordered that his boat, the largest
on board, be cleared away. Before the
men had an opportunity to loosen the
tackles the bottom Of the boat rested
on top of the surging sea which was
raging over the hurricane deck, and
for a moment it seemed as though the
lifeboat would be dragged down be-
fore she could be freed from the
doomed steamer
Every hand in the boat was too cold
to handle a knife and cut the ropes,
which, however, slipped through the
/ tackles and set the boat adrift just
+ as the vessel became submerged. The
I pitiable condition of the passengers
was increased a hundred fold the mo-
ment they had launched their boats.
Every wave sent its dash of spray over
boats and their contents. Soon a thin
coating of ice enveloped every one.
Those who were fully clothed suffered
from frozen faces and numbed feet,
but there were many who had on only
their nightclothes.

GETSA UNIQUE HONOR
Bryan Speaks TO IAN OverwheIm-
EingIy Republican'AssembIy
and Is Applauded.
ALL PARTIES JOIN THE CHEERS
Declares Himself Grateful to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for Lifting the
Pressure, as 1t Were.

Des Moines, Ia, Feb. 13.-William
j. Bryan was given the unique honor
of an ovation by state legislature
that is overwhelmingly Republican. He
appeared on invitation before the two
houses of the Iowa general assembly,
and made an address nearly two hours
in length, in which he discussed the
entire range OF political issues, and
which was accepted by the Democrats
of the legislature as tentative plat
form for the presidential campaign OF
1908. Time and time again Bryan was
interrupted with applause which came
from all parts Of the legislative hall
in which the joint meeting Of the two
houses was held.
Corporations vs.. the People.
Especially enthusiastic was the dem
onstration when he referred to Govern
or Cummins' labors to secure popular
election Of United States senators. Bry-
an discussed trusts and corporations,
the relations of legislatures to the peo-
pic. and the ethics Of money making;
he argued strongly for the popular
election Of United States senators and
declared himself in favor Of direct
primary. I'm every legislative body
today the contest IS between the great
corporations on one side and the people
on the other side said Bryan, IN dis
cussing the subject of corporations.
Another Evil OF Corporations.
Il say 1t deliberately; | say it calmly
and without passion, that if we could
take the influence of great corporations
ont of American politics 1t would not
REQUIRE nearly such long sessions OF
legislature and campaigns. The people
will soon get together. Eliminate the
large special interests that have their
representative about every legislative
body and Democrats and Republicans
ana members Of all parties, could agree
upon necessary legislation" In call
ing attention to the dangers and evils
of the "swollen fortunes" of modern
times Bryan commended President
Roosevelt saying: Let me here thank
the president of the United States fol-
what ne has done in arousing public
attention on this subject
Every Grateful to the President.

the Office cut those few years still

JAP C0OLIE TO BE BARRED
President Proposes That Measure to
Both Houses Of Con-

Washington, Feb. 13-It is stated
that President Roosevelt, through Sec
rotary Root. has proposed TO Speaker
Cannon and to the chairmen Of the
senate and house committees on immt-
grafton, and other Republican leaders
in congress, that clause be inserted
IN the immigration bill now pending in
congress which will bar japanese coolie
labor from the United States. Mayor
Schmitzs delegation favors such a
provision.
Secretary Root is preparing the pro
posed amendment to the immigration
bill, which will exclude all Asiatics
coming from the Philippine islands and
the Hawaiian islands from admission
to the main lands of the United States.
Laborers coming direct from Japan to
this country are now denied passports,
and the only way they have been able
to gain admission to this country has
been by first going to the Philippines
or Hawaii and later coming direct to
the United States.
1t is learned from q high official
source that this arrangement. which
is only intended to exclude the Jap
anese labOrers until a new treaty can
be negotiated with the Toxic govern
ment, has been accepted by the Jap
anese ambassador.

than l do, because since he has COM
menced to point out the dangers Of
swollen fortunes I only get about half
as much abuse as used to get. He is
now sharing this abuse with me. 1t is
so much easier to bear few of them
than It was to bear all. A large part
of the credit which the country is CIV
ing Roosevelt will be given to him for
the services he has rendered in call
ing attention to the ethics Of money
