NAME THE man"
Senate Committee Asks Senator's to
Tell Who Is to Be Dismissed.

The senators who were expecting
the committee on senate employees to
announce a decision to reduce the
number of employees in the senate
were treated to surprise at this af-
ternoon's session when the commit
tees report was read. It was also
revealed that the members of this
committee are not deficient in either
diplomacy sense. of humor for
the reading of the report provoked q
hilarious shout of laughter all over
tho chamber.
Immediately after the adjournment
this morning, Senator StaveIy assem-
bled his committee on employees and
the six members deliberated for about
two hours. Doubtless many members
expected when the committee report was
presented to witness the distressing
spectacle of the amputation of the
head and salary of some appointee to a
senate job. But in that they were mis-
taken. The committee report was as
follows:
Your committee on employees, re-
spectfully ask that each senator who
would be willing to dispense with the
service of any employe recommended
by him, that he present the name of
such person to the chairman of the
committee, not later than tomorrow"
After the laughter subsided the SEN
ate went on with its business and at
2:40 adjourned until tomorrow.

TRY TRICK IN POLITICS.
Petitions for New school Board Can
didate Who Is in Scotland.

A new and unexpected feature de-
veloped in the Fourth ward contest
for school board today. Mrs. H. o.
had been practically conceded that she
should represent the ward in the
school board. She is especially
qualified for the position and as it is
a personal sacrifice for her the people
had about decided that there should
be nothing thrown in her way.
But today new petitions made their
appearance. They contain the name
of James Cuthbert, the contractor.
Mr. Cuthbert's friends say that he
would not consent to be a candidate
were he here but as he is in Scotland
the opponents of Mrs. Garvey have
figured that they can take advantage
of his absence and force him into the
race.
1t is likely that Mr.. Cuthbert will
promptly decline to enter the race
when he hears of this latest coup.

California Legislators Ready to Join
Issues With Roosevelt.

Sacramento, Cal, Jan. Ex-Governor
Gillet will not send a message to the
legislature requesting that the anti
Japanese measure now pending in COM
mittees be killed unless, after the re-
ceipt of President Roosevelt's letter on
Thursday, he deems such action nee
essary. While the governor declines to
express an opinion on the merits of the
Drew bill prohibiting aliens holding
land. it is said on good authority that
he will veto the measure if it comes to
him for signature.
Speaker Stanton also believes the
Drew bill is dangerous.
Grove Johnson, author of three anti
Japanese bills that will be bitterly op-
posed by the federal government, de-
clares he will pay no attention to the
presidents request for delay.
He said today: "It will beSremem-
bered that two years Ego, during the
controversy over the Japanese school
question in San Francisco, the president
sent a frantic message to the governor
requesting that the bill providing that
japanese be segregated with Mongo-
lians be killed. I consented at that
time, to see If the federal authorities
would remedy matters. They have not.
