Denver has come our with an Of

Granite, Colo, Dec. lin a run
ming battle with a sheriff's posse last
night five miles south of Granite, Jas.
Brennan, the alleged leader of gang
of horse thieves, was shot and is be-
lieved to be dead. His horse was
shot from under him and at another
volley, Brennan himself fell in some
willows.
Fearing treachery. the posse did
not begin search for the body until

that Brennan is wounded and IL he

lowed and captured or killed.
Many Ihefts Committed.
The battle last night was the end
of long chase that has led all
over northern Colorado. For many
months past the farmers and stock
raisers of this section OF the state
have suffered from depredations
committed by stock thieves. Several
times posses of ranchmen have fol-
lowed the thieves and on one or two
occasions have recovered their prop
erty.
A few nights ago a gang made a
raid near here stealing a number of
horses. A posse was quickly formed
and went in pursuit. The thieves
scattered but with hopes of break
ing up the band, the posse continued
to follow Brennan. who was thought
to be the leader. The posse caught
up with Brennan last night and a
running fight ensued. The horse rid
den by Brennan was shot and 1t is
believed that the man was hit also.
Knowing the desperate character of
the man and fearing that he had
fallen in the willows with the avow-
ed intention of selling his life dear
ly, the officers made no search of
the willows until this morning.

Alien Clause
JAPANESE EDITOR DOES NOT
THINK PROPOSED LIQUOR LAW
FAIR.

"The clause in the proposed liquor
bill, discriminating against aliens is
most unfair" said c. Shiozawa, editor
Of the Hawaii Shinpo Sha this morn
ing and it is made wholly against the
japanese and Chinese as they are the
only races here who cannot become
naturalzed. Such a clause in my es-
timation cannot be in accordance with
the treaty unless they give us the right
to become naturalzed.
"The subjects of Japan are entitled
to the same right and privileges under
the treaty as the subjects of the most
favored people. Now the EngLshman,
the Frenchman, the German, any 9TH
er race under the sun almost can be-
come citizens of the United States and
hold liquor licenses under the alien
law. But not so with the Japanese
and the Chinese. If we had the right
to become naturalized things would be
different. 1t may be correct that there
are states in the Union which bar
+, all but citizens from holding licenses
but then the races they discriminate
against can become citizens so that
really they do not violate any treaty
rights. ASdM&lH
"I think the proposed law most un.
fair as l have stated before and prin-
cipally on account of the fact that the
last liquor law which allowed these
people to obtain licenses, is only tc
stay in force two years. Then most
of the Japanese saloon keepers have
spent a great deal of money fixing uI
their places of business and now they
are going to lose their licenses. This
is most unjust. l think the governmen,
of Japan will have some thing to say
before we are through with it."

Japanese
Were Not
All Landed
THERE WERE 50 NOT LANDED
OF THE 200 on THE STEAMER
ALAMEDA

Although the Associated Press cable
grams stated that the 200 Japanese
who were refused landing from the
Alameda on her arrival at the coast,
had been landed it appears from in
formation given out at the Japanese
Consulate that there were 3S of them
not allowed to land but held for fur
ther investigation. The consul general
at this port was so advised by cable
from the japanese consular office in
san Francisco Immediately following
the refusal of a landing.
The consul has not learned as yet as
to the final disposition Of the 3S but
believes that they were landed. How
ever he states that it may be possible
that they are being returned to Japan.
The reason given for the refusal was
that they were accused of being
brought from Japan as contract labor
ers, and their stop at Hawaii was sim
ply a blind to thrown the authorities
| off their guard The Consul stated
! he did not believe that the refusal to
land" was anything more than the
investigation which the japanese are
required to undergo at this place upon
their arrival when they are detained
at the immigration Station for inves-
cation. This has not been the GUS
tom in San Francisco in regard to Jap
anese arriving on the local steamer
Alameda and naturally when the pa
pers got hold of it they played 1t
up" on account of the recent Japanese
troubles in San Francisco.
The Consul made a statement to sew
eral of the Japanese papers in this city
which they all published, to the effect
that the belief expressed in this city
by planters that if a refusal to land
was correct that It would help labor
conditions here, was false. 1t wa'

make such a refusal to 200 laborers thu
