sdered Thursday afternoon before the
York county delegation The proposed
measure provides for an opportunity
for the residents of the county to vote

The proposition of trolley line to
Alfred. which is included in the pro-
posed extension Of the Atlantic Shore

York county court house to Alfred has
been agitated since 1858 when SaCo

placed at Alfred. business and other
interests made it the most desirable
location in the county. but since that
time the development of BiddefoTd,

Sends Message 10 Congress,
Recommending Legislation.
Newfoundland Fisheries Treaty Re-
ceived In the Senate.

Washington, Feb. S.-Prcsident Eoose-
welt sent to the Senate today the report
of a committee appointed by him to eA
anime the laws of the United States for
the better security of life at sea. with Il
view to their better adaptation to present
needs. The report is in the form of u
bill embodying a systematic rearrange-
ment and codification of existing law,
with such changes and amendments as
past experience and Il consideration OF
present day conditions seem to require.
The President asks Congress to give the
report careful consideration.
The commission is composed of Rear
Admiral Mark of the navy: Charles Earl,
solicitor of the department of commerce
and labor: George Uhler, supervising IN
spector general of the steamboat lnspec-
ton service: and Commander w. S.
Smith of the navy. 1t is proposed by the
commission to reorganiZe the marine in
spection service so as to include all types
of vessels, and to rearrange salaries TO
assure the procurement of a better class
of men.
All steam vessels and all motor vessels
carrying passengers for hire are mace
subject to inspection. Also all other
steam and motor vessels of more than 81
feet between perpendiculars are included
among the vessels that require inspection
, by this service. Instead OF limiting IN
spection to sail vessels of 700 gross tons

be inspected and such all vessels of %
gross tons or over which carry passen-
gers for hire are to be included. The
commission recommends that all inspect
ed vessels must carry on board the best
and most efficient equipment for the safe
tv of life at sea, including apparatus for
fighting fire.

SPEAKS OUT PLAINLY,
Says Misguided Men Oppose a Policy Which Is
Now Working Well and Would Defeat the
Very End Which 1t Seeks to ACCOMPLISH.

sure OF the best treatment, but that
there shall be no settlement IN mass
by the people of either country IN the
other.
In the last six months under this
policy more Japanese have left the
country than have come III ana the
total number in the United States has
diminished by over 1000. These figures
are absolutely accurate and cannot be
imreaChed. In other words, if the
present policy is consistently followed
and works as well in the future as it
is now working. all difficulties and
causes Of friction will disappear while
at tho same time each nation Will re-
tain its Sclf-reSpect and tn" good Will
of the other. But such d bill as this
school bill a"complishcs Literally moth
ing Whatever in the line or the object
aimee at and gives just grave cause
for iriitation: while in addition the
United States government would be
obliged Immediately to take action in
The Federal courts to test such legis-
lation, az we hold it to be clearly d
violation of the treaty.
"On this point | refer you to tho

gators OF the United States The

grave mischief. In short. the policy
of tt" administration is to combine
the maximum of efficiency in achiev
ing the real object which the people
Of thu Pacific slope have at nearr with
the minimum of friction and trouble,
while the misguided men who advo-
cate such action as this against which
! protest are following n policy which
combines the very minimum OF eff
ficicncy with the maximum of insult,
and which, while totally failing to
achieve any real result for good, yet
it might accomplish an Infinite OF
harm
IF in the next year or two the actioli
Of the Federal government fails to
achieve what 1t is now achieving. then
through the further action of the Pres
dent and Congress it can be made en-
tirely different. l am sure the sound
judgment of the people of California
will support you, Mr.. Speaker, i'll your
effort. Let me repeat that at present
we are actually doing the very thing
which the people of California wish to
