SOUTH MISSISSIPPI PRESS Asso

The Green County Herald, publish

on the proposition to organize South
Mississippi Press Association, which
will have for its object the promotion
Of the material welfare of this section
by the concerted action of the press,
expresses a reluctant willingness to
Join the movement, but is not so san
guine of it's success.
The basis of the Herald's skepti-
cism appears to be the want of ade-
aQuate transportation facilities, and in
this connection it would be we'll to
consider the things that are necessary
to be done before railroad companies
can be induced to branch out their
lines into new territory.
Railroad promoters are not in bus
less for their health or the common
good; and when a new line is pro-
jected the first thing they consider
is the kind of country it will pene-
trate, the class of people along the
route, the industries of the section
and the probable tonnage to be hendl-
ed.
Agriculture is the basis of all pros
perity. In Hattiesburg, for the past
several years, the demand has been
for smoke-stacks, dinner pals and
pay days. We have succeeded fairly
we'll in securing these, but there are
others which might have BEEN II

do not seek locations in the wilder

SURPRISE TO FRISCO.
Vote on Japanese School Bill Was
Entirelv UNEXPECTED.

SAN FRANCISCO, February 1.-THE
passage of the Johnson bill for the
SEGREGATION of Japanese in the public
schools was entirely unexpected hero.
for it was generally believed that after
the defeat of the Drew measure all of
the so-called anti-Japanese bills would
be buried under an adverse vote. At
the local Japanese consulate the news
was received as soon as the bill passed.
and on behalf of the vice consul, Taxa
hashi. Secretary Koyama made the fol-
lowing statement:
Speaking for the Japanese consul
and residents, We are Very much
grieved that the assembly passed this
bill. We did not expect that such ac-
ton would be taken even by the assem-
bill will not pass in the senate, be-
cause of the attitude of a majority of
the members of the body. Moreover.
we feel certain that Gov. Gillett, OBJ
serving the desires of President Roose-
velt will not sign the bill, even though
it pass in both houses. President
Roosevelt and Gov Gillett, we believe,
are acting justly and wisely in this
matter
News of the passage of the bill was re-
ceived with some CONSERVATION by the
local school board. which has already
had it's share of trouble from the lues-
ton of separate schools for japanese.
If the bill cannot be beaten today 1t is
expected that a move will be made to
postpone reconsideration for a week. or
at least until the opponents of the
measure have had time to recover their
breath.

TEXT OF THE SCHOOL BILL
Requires Segregation Of Chinese,
Japanese and Indian Children

SACRAMENTO, Cal, February 5.-The
full text of the school bill which passed
the assembly yesterday by the vote of 6S
to 26, follows:
Section 1862 of the political code is
hereby amended so as to read as follows.
wv 1862 Every school, unless other
wise provided by law must be open for
the admission of all children between six
and twenty-one years Of age residing in
the district. and the board of school trus-
tees or city board Of education have DOW
err to admit adults and children not re-
siding in the district whenever good rea-
sons exist therefor. Trustees shall have
the power to segregate the children of
filthy or vicious habits of children suf-
fering from contagious or infectious dis
easeS and also to establish separate
schools for Indian children and for chill
dren of Monaghan or Japanese or Chinese
descent.
when such separate schools are es-
tablished Indian. Chinese. japanese or
Monaghan children must not be admitted
into any other school; provided, that in
cities and towns in which the kindergarten
has been adopted or may hereafter he
adopted as part of the public primary

The Language of Music.

From the Atlantic.
To those musical agnostics who deny to
music any beauties save those of design.
and maintain that of itself it cannot ex-
press ideas and feelings, Redfern Mason
makes appropriate reply.
But there Is another side to the picture
What was it that made George II rise in
his place when they sang the "Hallelu-
jah'' chorus, thereby setting an example
which is followed to this day? What was
1t in the finale of the fifth symphony
that drew the Napoleonic veteran to his
feet with the exclamation. THE en-
peror,'? What sanctity in the Ambro-
sian hymns moved ST. Augustine to tears?
During the wars of the French revolution
it was forbidden. on pain of death. to play
the RAM dies Vaches" in the hearing OF
the Swiss soldiers. for so acute a longing
for home did it bring upon them that they
deserted in hundreds. Are we to think
there was no virtue in the music itself.
and that the effect produced was the out
come of purely accidental circumstances
The Austrian government forbade Berlioz
to play the "RackocZy" march at Buda
Pesth, fearful of its effect on the inflam
mable Hungarians. Was the fire of pa
triotism kindled by the mere knowledge
that the melody symbolized Hungary. or
did the notes speak with tongues OF flame?

SAY SCHOOL BILL Is RIGHT.
California Senators Both Approve.
Action Of State Assembly.

While unwilling to discuss the bill pass
ed by the California assembly yesterday
Senator Perkins of California asserted
his belief that the right should be given
to school authorities of the state to fur
nish separate schools for Japanese.
The people of California in their at
tempt to secure regulation of Japanese
attendance in their schools do not desire
to do anything that will disrupt general
treaty policies with JAPAN declared Sem
ator Perkins. 1.-The question as to wheth-
|er Japanese should be admitted to the
schools and universities of the state
should be left. in my opinion, to the
school boards and the regents of the col
leges. In the case Of higher schools and
universities l do not think there has
been or would be in the future any OBJ
lection to having Japanese students. In
the lower schools. however, the objection
has been that there were often japanese
children much older than the American
children and the former often kept back
the latter because they knew little Eng
lish and had to be taught slowly. The
people of California are right on the
question. The right to furnish separate
schools for Japanese, as well as for other
Asiastics. should be given to the individ-
ual school authorities of the state as a
police provision.
Senator Flint Of California said that he
was surprised to learn of the passage of
the bill. He refused to discuss the pos
sibility of it's passage i'm the upper house
|of the legislature. He said his views on
