lean resident of Japan, who wrote to
friend in New York. He declares
, that foreigners are not wanted in the

tons. One must really live with these
people and understand what their
thoughts are of the future. Now that
the San Francisco school question Is
efore us, kindly permit me to place
efore you the position of Americans
in Japan. The Japanese demand equal
rights. Here is our position in Japan:
We are here for business. Therefore,
knowing the people, we do as we are
told. Otherwise it is well to leave
the country. We are not allowed to
own real property or to have any min.
ing rights. We can only buy certain
securities. When doing business we
place certain securities in the name
of a Japanese, and if the said Japan
csc absconds. the courts will not even
consider his act a criminal one. We
are not allowed to attend Japanese
Schools, old or young. We are only
permitted to reside in certain sections.
Such simple thing as sailing a
pleasure boat is restricted. We can
not leave the treaty port unless with
a permit, and it is next to impossible
to secure such a permit The Japan
csc go anywhere desired. but a for
eiguer cannot enter any port of Japan
Except the regular open port from
the water front. At the theaters the
Japanese rate is 90 sen. No foreigner
is admitted under the yen. The hotels
are on a similar basis. 1t is a known
fact that justice cannot be had except
in the higher courts, and every case
against the foreigner is carried to the
supreme court before justice is given.
In taxes foreigners pay
double the rates paid by the Japanese.

and won reputation as a beauty.
She figured in many episodes and
achieved notoriety as the belle of
Harry K. Thaw's famous beauty din

engaged to the duke OF Manchester,
but the report was denied At an
other time she was so friendly with
King Leopold of Belgium as to cause
his advisers much worry. In Paris
her most constant admirer was the
Count de Ganets. She was the daugh-

Margaret left fourteen years ago to go
