JAPANESE QUESTION
IS Misunderstood
PRESIDENT GETS TELEGRAPHlc
COPY OF RESOLUTIONS PASSED
IN LOS MISUNDERSTANDING
TloN NOT INDoRSED.

Washington. February 6.-The President
today received a telegraph copy of
resolution adopted yesterday by the Los
Angeles, Cal, chamber of commerce on
the Japanese school question, which ex-
presses the belief that the public senti-
,ment of California, especially of the
southern part, upon the question of the
exclusion of the Japanese from the gem
eral public school system of the state
has been to some extent misrepresented
and is largely misunderstood.
The sentiment is expressed that upon
the main proposition, whatever may be
the diversity OF opinion upoa. the 4consti7
tutional and legal phases, the board Is
assured that the general trend of pub
lie opinion in southern California is de-
cldedly adverse to any discrimination
against the Japanese as a people, in mat
ters Of public school privileges, and they
believe that this opinion is based upon
consideration of equity and justness and
is held altogether independently of any
attitude which the Japanese government
has assumed or may assume. in regard
to the question

Saqebrush For BUILDING Blocks

l.. L. Allan Il New Englander who If
living in Sparks, tells The Forum uf TINT
place OF a plan which he has to rcvuiL-
tionize the building industry Of not only
Nevada but Of all the states west II the
Rocky mountains. While travelling
through the west Mr.. Ala was, i'm
pressed with the lnI ge quantities Of
~sagebrush growing upon the plains and
hillsides in every direction, and wonder.
ed why the resi- Icuts had not put this
vast quantity Of natural growth to some
practical use.
He says my plan is a simple one and
consists mainly in the converting Of
sagebrush into n form suitable for
building purposes. With Il portable
machine, model OF which | will shortly
send to the patent Office ut Washington,
| travel over IT," arid land, pull the
brush by the root4 and, by immense
pressure, convert it into building blocks
that will Whilst md the ravages OF time,
anuwn fact that sagebrush contains
both tannln ard quInine, and | propose
to cave both these ingredients and con-
vect them into marketable form by a
process upon which l am now working.
Consider the cost OF erecting even MI
ordinary dwelling house IN this section
OF the country. II is immense. The
c0mmNuest kind Of rough lumber will
oosr You s27 per thousand at the mill
and a large per cent more for hauling
or shipping il yon live at any distance.
With my method the price for building
an Ordinary house will be reduced to ut
leart one third OF the present cost. The
material, to my mind, will be better than
stone, brick or concrete blocks. The
buildings will be cooler in the summer
End warmer in the winter, as well us
everlasting.

How Nae Central Pacific Mas Reuun.

That great organization, the Central
Pacific railroad. which, will, it's later
"rPmiications, now extends to Ogden Oh
the ens,, I'll Paso ON the south, San
Francisco Oh the vest and Portland Oh
the North, was originally kno an ns the
Dutch Flat Swindle." But few people
know that the silver mines Of the COM
stock caused the first suggestion OF that
road being built. The following from
the Nevada City Transcript OF October
%, 1861, will show the humble BEGIN
ntnRs Of what was to prove a ~stupendous
undertaking:
a railroad from the Coast TO the silver
regions in the Territory Of Nevada
would pay enormous profits. Governor
Stanford md n number OF other men OF
means went over the route lately sur
veyed by Theodore ID. judah, by the
way OF Dutch Flat, and immediately
upon the arrival OF the party at the
capital Of the new territory we hear of
the Legislature in session making a
move to grant tho party the right to
construct n railroad from the enstern
boundary Of the State to the central
points in Nevada.
The people of PlacervilIe are also
moving theoretically in the same di.
rectiop, 81 5000 having already been
subscribed to ward tine building OF n
railroad from Sacramento TO Placeryille,
"A Route that boa hooD oh,r,, Ia, II,o
ports OF engineers to be infinitely more
difficult than one from Folsom to Ne
vada City. Tho plan with the Sacra
mento and Placervillc road is to extend
It over into the silver rHgiTS.
1t is claimed hat q nav route has been
discoversl oy Enineer Bis.!c,. ..-ar the
head OF the sUnth fork of the American,
where by the cutting Of Il turnel three
and n half miles in length the II
belt is avoided and the waters Of Lake
Bigler reached. This is the spot pointed
ont by the projectors of the route us
shaped by nature Tor a railroad to pass
the mountain barrier bet ween California
md Nevada.
The truth is that the Henness Pass is
the lowest, easiest and nearest route in
the State for either a wagon road or a
raiIrond. IL our people would but tn 0
mold of this matter in earnest Tie rail-
road would be passing through Nevada
City to Wushoe before the three and
a half mile tunucl on the PlaceIville
route could be run.
