Assembly Passes Bill For

Horse Races
CALL HEADQUARTERS,
1907 EIGHTH STREET,

SACRAMENTO, Feb 19.-Contrary
to expectations the Eshleman bill for
bidding betting on horse races passed
the Assembly today, getting two votes
more than the necessary number. The
test of strength showed 43 ayes and
81 noes. OF the eighteen members from
San Francisco only John McKeen voted
for the bill. Pete Kelly of the Twenty
eighth dubbed over with Jealous op-
position. He made rambling speeches
and asked pointless questions until
squelehed by the Speaker, and accord
ing to half q dozen of his colleagues
from the bay 1t was Keliy's noisy dis
sent that carried the BILL
Eshleman opened the debate by read
ing letters from banks and guaranty
companies telling of the demoralizing &
influence of horse race betting. Next
he told of small boys stealing money
to play. Then in an impassioned way
he declared that many students of the
University of California We're gambling g
away the money sent them by their
parents. In regard to this charge he
said that members of the Assembly had
threatened to fight all appropriations
for the university IL he used the facts
concerning the Generalization of stu
dents as an argument in favor OF his
bill.
Pete Kelly sprang TO the rescue Of
the racetracks
This is one principal reason why I
came to the Assembly" he began. At
ter some irrelevant remarks he went
on to recall the days of the great fire.
People were rowing about, irrespective
of party or religion" said Pete He
himself and members of his family
were in dire straits. We were look
ing for some place to lay our little
heads" cried Pete. The Assembly
Gentlemen, this Is no JOSH"
Pete at last got down to the kernel
of his argument. Who came to our
rescue?1 he asked. The California
Jockey Club opened up Erneryville and
said: Gentlemen, come in and lay your
heads.
Devlin of Vallejo, in closing an able
speech against the evils of professional
gambling, asked the fathers of fam
lilies: would you want your daughter
to marry racetrack habitue" Kelly
sprang to his feet. I'll answer you,'
he said. Yes, I would

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1s.-Ohcials OF
the immigration Bureau believe that
the first movement to be made toward
the enforcement Of the new Japanese
exclusion act will be an investigation
by agents of the bureau for the pur-
pose of ascertaining what aliens are
entering the United States under pass
ports to other countries, whether they
are a detriment to labor conditions
here. and how the immigration should
be stopped. under the existing law
many Japanese entering the country
from Mexico in violation of the law
have been deported without protest
from Japan This is going on con-
stantly.
officials now say that they believe
that the President Will order an investi-
cation before directing the exclusion
of Japanese coming from Hawaii in
order to determine whether they are
actually detriment to labor conditions
in this country.

World the settlement of the school
question is criticised 1t is termed
quite unsatisfactory by the editor. who
points out that it is possible for the
Board of Education to make arbitrary
rules concerning the examination Of
pupils to be admitted to schools with
American children. The editorial is as
follows:
According to the school matter agreement be-
tween the President and the San Francisco com
mittee. "all children of alien races undezs 16
years of age, who speak the English language,
may be admitted to the white schools. Special
schools are to be established for children of
allen birth who are deficient In the elements of
the English language" We have heard that
the School Board will make detailed rules to
determine the standard of admittsDce and the
Board of Educa tion will probably make a strict
rule for English-speaking japanese children.
The majority of the Japanese children cannot
read or speak English fuently. According to
the agreement. the Japanese children who can
not speak English fuently cannot attend the
! public schools. Therefore if the Board of Edu-
cation viii msliciously make strict rules for
the exam mination of Japanese children. then the
agreement is weak from the Japanese side.
Thus, according TO our opinion. the school
question should not be settled in that way, and
we are not satisfied with side Of the agree
ment. Hence wish the Board of Eduea tion
/ would give admission TO all children without
restriction before the fire.

PRACTICAL ADVERTISING
A few years ago such an undertaking
would have been simply impossible To-
day it can be easily accomplished by
means Of the vast distributing facilities
of the Ei1ers organization.
The makers of the Hazelton. the
Decker. the Kimball the Hobart NJ
Cable, the Story & Clark. the Schu-
mann. the Smith & Barnes, the Schu-
bert and the Bailey pianos have Joined
to make this undertaking possible.
They realize the necessity of effective
yet practical publicity, which is next
in Importance only TO making a first
class article.
Unlike the firms who spend thou
sands of dollars annually in magazine
advertising and subsidizing concert
artists, our manufacturers believe as
we do that after all the hest adver-
tisement is the pleased and enthusiastic
buyer.
An army of a thousand satisfied Gus
toners will do more to assist in the
sale of large numbers of pianos than
all concert piano recitals and maga-
zine advertising possibly can
They will pay for advertising only
when a piano has been actually sold,
and not otherwise. Their generosity
will long be remembered by the bene-
fciaries of this advertising allowance,
and future sales viii result IN abun-
dance.
Eilers Music Co also realizes that
an Advertising campaign of this mag
nitude would not be attempted with
any other than the very finest of new
pianos Every instrument in this sale

grade. the materials and workmanship

according to press dispatches, this was frankly
admitted by Congressman Hayes on the hoor of
the House.
The race question is the big thing. The
received real exclusion law In return for the
concessions in the matter Of the schools, the
barga in would not have been so bad, but the
arrangement made is in my opinion about as
sour a lemon as the president could have hand

to understand that something more is promised

In line with Tveitmoe,s views is that
of Walter Macarthur, editor of the
Coast Seamen's Journal and a labor
organizer prominently connected with
the exclusion movement, who addressed
a meeting of the Commercial Travel

Hall on Fillmore street. He said in

the Assembly today by a vote of 81

A spirited debate preceded the roll
call. johnson denied that either Ruef

nected with the indicted San Francis
cans had had anything to do with the
framing of the bill. johnson dug deep
into history He declared Adolph
Weber of Auburn was convicted not
by a jury, but by an unfair Judge .I
have defended seventeen murder cases

successful in sixteen and would have
won the other one with a fair Judge"
Cutten of Eureka opposed the bill
warmly.
Pyle OF Santa Barbara supported the
measure because he sympathized with
persons convicted before they were
tried. In citing examples, he spoke of
Ruef and Schmitz, and then recalled
cases OF Mrs. Surratt Durrant and Gut
teau. He did not think Durrant should
have been tried in San Francisco. and

Coghlan of San Francisco grasped

Otis of Alameda offered an amend

prejudice must be filed either before
