CALIFORNIA AND JAPAN.

II we are bound 20 have a war
And fight the sassy Japs.
Why can't we give the contract TO
Those California chaps
They seem TO be the ouly ones
Who are raising all the muss.
While all the other commonwealth
Don't seem to care cuss.
They've got the greatest state out
there
On ours or any map,
And war material in heaps
TO overcome the Japs.
Take prunes, for instance-just that
one,
Omltting all the rest.
In pruncs the Golden State may pat
Her valor TO the test.
She needn't load n single gun,
But arm herself with spoons.
And Selling all invading Japs
Just fill them full OF prunes.
When anybody's full of prunes.
As everybody knows,
He insn't any good at all;
And SO the battle goes.
Prunes. California conquering prunes!
Then let the slogan be,
From Sacramento to the coast:
In prunes is victory.
But II by chance the prunes run short
And Japs should get the drop,
Resourceful California may
Hand them her lemon crop.

WAR COMPARISONS.

Some curios comparisons are found
to exist between the Asiatic and
American military and naval powers.
Some OF them are very striking.
one important difference is in the
cost OF feeding the armies. The Amer.
lean army and navy ration is cC.-put.
ed at 30 cents. That is. the sailor Or
soldier is allowed 80 cents in lieu Of
ration Zone days supply OF food II

visions. this appears TO be pretty
close figuring on a wholesale basis.
II would puzzle one to buy the same
ration at 30 cents at retail. The jap
ration, on the other hand, is confin.
ed almost strictly to rice, dried fish
and tea. All OF these are home PROD.
ucts OF Japan. The Jap ration is esti.
mated TO cost about cents in Amerf.
can money, one-sixth of the cost of
the American ration. 1t would cost
the United States enormously more
to feed its army and navy than IT
would cost Japan.
Another difference Is in the wages of
the men. The American regular, pri.
yate, gets s13 per month. The Amer..
can biuejacket averages about $50
to S24 a month. The japanese fighting
man gets but couple of dollars.

This commission is now daily en-
gagged in the work required by said

ETC., which will necessarily require
some time to complete thoroughly, as
required by the law Numbers of wit

intervals to testify as 20 individual
transactions and land sales, and by

There MAJ De, and doubtless are,
citizens in various PORTIONS of the
state, who are in possession of infor-

this method of appealing to the state
press to give currency to our desire,
that any and all sucn persons, and

the matter up and probe it to the
