Pouring Into Frisco.
Having been admitted at the Haw-
allan ports, their voyage thence is
"coastwise," and they cannot be ex-
amined on arrival at the mainland
port under the allen labor contract or
my other provision Of the immigra-
ton laws. The immigration commits
sioner at San Francisco reports that
Japanese have been arriving there
coastwise from Honolulu and from
Canadian ports at the rate of 1000
to 5000 per month. The reports says
that several thousand laborers have
been imported under this evasion of

THIS IS MY 54TH BIRTHDAY.
Johnston Forbes. Robertson.

Johnston Forbes Robertson, the
celebrated English actor now touring
America, was born in London, January
16. 1853. He was educated in France
and after devoting several years to
travel he took up painting and was
admitted as student at the Royal
Academy in London. Deciding to
abandon painting for the drama he
made his first stage appearance at the
Princess Theatre in 1874. His first
noteworthy personal hit was in Robert
Buchanan's "Corinne." In 1888 he
was leading member of the famous
company under the Bancrofts at the
Haymarket Theatre in London. He
also accompanied Mary Anderson on
her tour of America. But it was not
until he acted. Scarpia in Bardou's LA
Tosca," that his real footing in Lon
don was established. Since that time
he has added to his fame by appear
ing in many notable successes in both
England and America. Mr.. Robert
son is married to Gertrude Elliott, SIS
ter of Maxine Elliott.

duced record eclipsing all former
figures on the subject of immigration;
according to the annual report Of
Frank P. Sargent, commissioner gen.
eral Of immigration. During that
period, the report says, the population
of the United tSates was increased by
the admission of 1,1O0,735 immigrant
aliens and 65,618 non-immigrant aliens
entered at its ports, making the total
admissions 1,166,35S.
The increase over last years record
of 1,059,755 (1,O26,499 aliens plus 49,
256 transits) was 106,598.
During the fiscal year 1905, 1880
aliens were rejected and during the
past year 12,432 OF the immigrant
aliens. that is. those who intended
settling in the United States, there
were 764,463 males and 336,272 fe-
males.
The tendency of immigration during
the past few years to gather its steady
increase principally from the countries
of Southern Europe is referred to.
Without exception" the report
says, "the countries from which we
formerly obtained the greater part of
our foreign population, and which are
inhabited by races nearly akin to our
own, have supplied US with smaller
numbers during the past year than
during 1905-Ireland, 1880; England,
1928; Sweden, 1921; Germany, g.
O1O; Denmark, 1929, and Scotland l.

ION the other hand the four most
considerable gains are Italy, 51,461;
Russia, 3O,76S; Greece, 1914, and Tur-
key Tin Europe and Asia), $685."
The Jap's Scheme.
The immigration from Austria-Hun-
gary amounted to 265,13S; Italy, in
Guiding Sicily and Sardinia, 273,12O;
Russian empire and Finland, 215,665;
China, 1,544; Japan, 1885, and the
West Indies, 1866.
That the physical and mental
quality of the aliens we are now re-
ceiving is much below that of those
who have come in former years, he
says, is evident.
The North Atlantic and North Cen
trail States, together, received 80 per
cent of the entire immigration of
1906; the South per cent. AS in
previous years, the bulk of the immi-

Franklin, Pa.-Kidnaped 10 years
ago, when she was only four years,
Mrs. Emma Harris has returned to the

One day in 1883 the little girl was
stolen from her fathers home while
Mr.. Wood, who was widower, was in
Franklin. The neighborhood was
searched without success and from the
fact that his mother-in-law had left
the community about the same time

Appetizina Meat stews.

It is at this season that meat stews,
which require the long, slow cooking,
will be found most appetizing and
economical additions to the weekly
menu. If you burn coal you have a
fire all day any way, SO that there
will be no extra expense for fuel.
Stews may be cooked on top of the
stove or in the oven, the general es.

is known as fricaseeing, stewing or

Buffalo, N. Y, Jan. 16.-Justice wall
lam ]. Gaynor. OF Brooklyn, was the
principal guest at the annual dinner
Of the Lawyers Club here. His sub
3ect was 1.-THE responsibilities of the
Bench and Bar"
He said In part:'
Seventy per cent Of the members
Of our legislatures are lawyers. They
control the legislation Of the coun-
try. They are therefore responsible
for certain conditions existing in the
country. The courts broke up the
commercial trusts. For instance.
twenty years ago the sixteen sugar
refining corporations entered into an
agreement by which twelve trustees
were appointed, and then the stock
holders Of each Of them turned ever
their stock to these trustees, which, of
course, gave such trustees absolute
control Of each of the corporations.
and enabled them to elect the board
Of directors of each, and run all of
the corporations as unit.
THUS, sixteen competing concerns
were turned into one, and competi-
ton among them destroyed and prices
controlled. In the very same way the
thirty-nine different Standard Oil cor
porations, dispersed all over the coun-
try and holding charters from the diff
ferent states, were turned into one
monopoly.
Lawyers to the Rescue.
I'm 1890 the highest courts in New
York and Ohio declared these COM
binations illegal and dissolved them.
But what did the lawyers in our leg
islatures straightway do? Why, they
passed laws to nullify the effect of
these judicial decisions. They pas

those who are the fortunate possessors
of some of these antiques are proudly
