FIREMEN TO HAVE
BALL FRIDAY NIGHT

The new city fire house is almost
ready for occupancy. The department
hopes to move in about Wednesday.
But there is a fly in the ointment -
in the form of bath room which a
lack of funds prevented the council
from fitting out with fixtures and
connecting up with the sewer. The
fire boys have decided to have the
work done and stand back of the ex-
pense personally, until they can
raise the money by popular amuse-
ments. The first thing in order will
be a Firemen's Ball, which will be
held Friday night in the elegant new
hall provided by the upper story of
the city building. The ball will be pub
lie and all except the rough element
are invited. Tickets will be 81 and
all ladies will be admitted free. In
either towns the Annual Firemen's S
Ball is one of the big society events
of the town, and if this one proves a
success, it will be made an annual ev-
ent here. The right thing is for every
body to come out and help along with
an institution which means more int
crest in the fire department on the
part of the members, and this, in
turn, means additional protection to
the property of the whole city.

Sacramento, Calf, Feb. l. Not
withstanding President Roosevelt's s
letter to Governor Gillette, in which
is enclosed one from Secretary Root,
explaining that all state laws should
be in recognition of treaty rights
with regard to aliens, Cass A. NJ.
Drew, author of the bill preventing
aliens from holding lands in this
state, declared that he will continue
to urge the passage of the bill as a
mended. He said: "As to the Presi-
dents views in this latest letter,
take no exception, but i do believe
that Secretary Root takes an unwar-
ranted stand against all legislation
proposed against the Japanese. 1 may
frankly state that my object in intro
ducing the land bill was to keep the
Japanese from getting a foot-hold in
California. They should not be allow
ed to become citizens of this country
and they should have no rights as
property owners"
Grover l.. Johnson, author of the
bill prohibiting the Japanese from be-
ing members of corporations and pro-
viding for their segregation, said:

The Brownsville Matter.

Washington, Feb. 1.-When the
senate met today great interest WAS
manifested in the outcome of Senator
Foraker's efforts to have a day fixed
for consideration of the Aldrich sub
stitute bill providing for a COURT OF
inquiry to determine which of the dis
charged soldiers of the twenty-fifth
regiment of infantry should be reen-
listed. On the Democratic side there
is united opposition to the passage OF
any measure looking to the reenist-
ment of negro soldiers The Demo
Gratis have expressed the view that as
several investigations have resulted
in failure to determine the guilty men
in the regiment, although it was dis
covered that men of the regiment had
shot up Brownsville, it would be man
ifest1y impossible for any court of in
quiry to act intelligently on the sub
ject unless additional evidence should
be obtained. On the part of the Re
publicans the substitute bill will be
made a party measure and will likely
have the full Republican vote.

Washington, Jan. 3O.The enabling
act for single statehood for New Mexi-
co and Arizona was reported to the
House at four O'Clock this afternoon
by the committee on Territories. The
bill will be taken up next week and
will probably be passed. The bill, AS
prepared was submitted to the minor
ity members on the committee on Ter
ritories and was found to be satisfac-
tory to them.
The prospects are that the bill will
pass the House without serious oppo-
sition, but will meet with rough slea-
ding in the senate, where the opposi-
ton seems to be concen trated.

IOWA LAW is ATTACKED.
Attorneys for Nelson Duff Appeal
Sentence Statute, Declaring
Board of Parole is Given
Too Much Power.

Iowa's indeterminate sentence law
is attacked as unconstitutional in the
argument of attorneys for Nelson
Duff, who has taken an appeal to
the supreme court from the sentence
of the district court in this city,
where he was convicted of helping
prisoner escape from the Winnie
shiek county Jail and given the maxi
mum of ten years in prison.
In deciding the Duff case the SUI
preme court will be called upon to
settle for the first time the question
Of whether or not the intermediate
sentence is constitutional. That
1t is not, is the BELIEF of four Iowa
judges who have refused to regard
it in sentencing convicted prisoners.
E. R. Acres and M. J. Carter Of
DEBORAH are Duff's attorneys. The
attorney generals office is now pre-
pairing an argument answering the
attack on the indeterminate SEN
tence. The case will be submitted
at the May term of the supreme
court.
Members of the board of control.
the board of parole, and others in
terested in criminal law are vitality
interested in the outcome of the
Duff appeal. Board members are
firm believers in the indeterminate
sentence, and If the court rules
against it they will be greatly disap-
pointed.
The law Is attacked on the ground
that it gives the board of parole pow
.er to determine the length of a SEN
tence.
