To STOP JAP
EMIGRATION
Baron Ishii Recommends That
Course With Reference to u. 5.
and CurtaiIment to Canada.

TOXIC, Dec. 3.-Baron lshii, chief
of the bureau of commerce of the
Japanese foreign Office, who visited
America and Canada to investigate
the immigration problems, arrived in
Toxic today and conferred with the
officials of the foreign Office, with
whom he arranged a thorough can
vass of the situation for the coming
week. Baron ishii said:
My visit to America and Canada
convinced me that opposition to the
Japanese is based partly upon race
prejudice, though considerable of it
is due to laborers, instigated by agi-
tators. found japanese residents in
America and Canada who resent the
incoming of their countrymen from
the Hawaiian islands and Mexico.
while it is proper for Japan to
conserve the interests Of Japanese
HOW resident abroad, many of whom
are prospecting and living peacefully
in America, in my opinion 1t will be
necessary in order to keep absolute
faith with the United States to pre-
vent the emigration of laborers
thither altogether, because an eXclu-
sion act would be aisagreeable. We
should send laborers to Canada in
great moderation.

DISCUSS RATE REDUCTION.
General Passenger Agent Fee VIII
Come to Nevada.

Charles S. Fee, general passenger
agent of the Southern Pacific COM
pany, will arrive in Nevada this
month and confer with the members
of the Nevada Railroad commission
in regard to the reduction of passen-
ger rates on the Southern Pacific
line in Nevada.
The notice of the railroad commits
sion that a meeting would be held
early in December for the purpose of
discussing the passenger rates of the
Southern Pacific was sent to the Of
ficials of the Southern Pacific last
week, and now comes the announce
ment that Mr.. Fee will attend the
meeting, which will be held in Reno.
1t Is usual with the head officials
of the Southern Pacific to send a rep
resentatiye to these meetings, but
this time the general passenger
agent will attend to the matter him
self.
1t is the opinion of railroad of
ficials in Reno that no reduction in
passenger rates will be granted by
the Southern Pacific as the hauls are
too long in this state. The rate is
now 4 cents a mile, having been re-
duced from 3 cents about year
ago. Attorney General Stoddard
states that the railroad commission
ers will probably ask for a reduction
to R cents per mile, and he has
also stated that he believes the
Southern Pacific company should
grant such a reduction.

DOLLY WARDEN SECTION
IS MAKING BIG MINE
WITH HIGH VALUES

Fred l.. Schrott, superintendent of
the Granite Mountain Mining & De-
velopment company's properties, near
Dolly Warden, west of the Deep Creek
country, in Nevada, returned from a
Is days trip to the mines yesterday
morning laden with samples of ore
that has been encountered during his
absence, says the Salt Lake Herald.
I'VE have been doing a good deal
of prospecting along the great LEDGE"
said Mr.. Schrott, land we have now
determined on the point at which to
sink the first shaft. This point is as
near the center of our six claims as
it would be possible to make it with
out an actual survey Enough pros
pecting and open cut work has now
been done to demonstrate beyond a
doubt that we have the ledge running
practically through the center of our
claims for 1900 feet. At the point
where sinking has commenced the
vein is close to so feet wide The
shaft is started close to the hanging
wall side ana, judging from what
we know of the dip of the ledge, it
is likely that we shall have to sink
go feet or more to get the foot wall
side. Where the shaft is located, the
mineral was breaking through the
iron and lime Gaping, and right be-
low this we commenced 10 get galena
such as these samples. We have
taken out several tons of this ma
terial and as much more of the yellow
carbonate, that makes in a streak sew
eral feet thick right under the galena
ore. | believe we shall cut several
streaks of ore in sinking to the foot

offered to dealers here at prices well

no buyers All of those approached

goods, although he will find no difficulty

MELON CROP MAY BE SHORT
Sad News for Lovers of the Delicious
RedheartS of Georgia.

Travelling men are now setting uI
| the distressing claim that the Georgia
and Florida watermelon crop will be
short.
This is the saddest news that has
come in some time. 1t has been re.
ceived with genuine anguish Of soul
and unless it is shown to be inaccu-
rate by later information the good old
summer time will be shorn of half its
glory.
Americus is not heavily interested
from a shipping standpoint, but from
the position of consumers it takes front
rank among the anxious.
One man stated that he has travelled
over all Florida and south Georgia and
that the chances are for a very poor
crop. The canteloupe crop, which is
always an exceedingly profitable one
will be short on account of deficiency
in moisture and seed planted cannot
germinate.
The gentleman quoted is on the look
out for southern products for his house
and after going over Georgia and Flor.
ida he turned his attention to South
Carolina and he says the chances are
good for that state to come up to GeOr-
gia in raising the fruit "that once on
trees like apples grew"
