WOMEN NEED THE BALLOT.

In his lecture, what a city can
do for its citizens" Hon. Frederick c.
Howe. municipal expert. designates
the granting of suffrage to women
as the city's first duty. He argues
that city administration is housekeep-

and gains most by bad or good ad-
minstration. suffrage would en-
large woman's self-respect just as it
enlarges mans" says Mr.. Howe. she
would feel that she was an integral
part of the community in which she
lived. Further than this, it would in
crease mans respect for woman. We
cannot appreciate the change which
would take place in all of us were

The Rose City is said to have been

BILL PASSED TO
BENEFIT ALIENS
House Adopts By One Vote al Act
Partially Aimed At
Californians.
CASTING VOTE OF THE SPEAKER.
Cannon Defends His Right to Decide
A Tie By Many
Presidents.

WASHINGTON, December 12.-The
question of State rights figured prom
inently in the debate in the House to-
day on the bill providing for the pro-
lection of aliens in the United States,
in accordance with treaties entered
into with foreign powers The bill is
designed to relieve the United States
from what was stated on the floor by
Shirley of Kentucky to be the en-
barrassing and often humiliating posi-
ton arising from its inability to make
good the obligation of its treaties for
the protection of foreigners in this
country"
Coming up on final passage, some OF
the Southern members saw in it
menace to State rights and in spite of
the assurance that the State Depart
ment wished it passed merely to meet
such cases as the murder of aliens in
New Orleans by the Malta, it was sug-
gested that it would apply to such
cases as the refusal of the San Fran
cisco Board of Education to admit Jap
anese to the public schools established
solely for American children, and al
though Judge Jenkins said that if he
thought it could have such an appli-
cation he would vote against it, the
California members thought that if the
legal effect Of the law could be ques-
toned it ought not to pass.
Shirley said it could not apply IN
San Franciscos case, as the School
Board could not be indicted for car
rying out a law Others differed with
him and, when pressed regarding thu
necessity for the measure, Shirley sait
it was designed partly to prevent a
recurrence of such scenes as the
Chinese riots in California in early
days. He admitted that there were
laws then, but he said the people
would not use them, and It was de-
sired to give the Federal Government
power to act II it should ever become
necessary to protect aliens in their
treaty rights,
After further discussion the bill was
passed 100 10 3d. The vote was SO
close that the Speaker ordered re-
oapiulation at the suggestion Of Henry
=. Of Texas. This disclosed that the vote
actually stood 100 10 100 This tie was
