sive, high spirited-qualities which
delight the American people but
which If given play on American soil
would develop the strongest form of
race antagonism.
"That history teaches us that it is
impossible to develop a homogeneous
people by the juxtaposition of races
differing in color upon the same soil;
that under such conditions race tol-
erance means undesirable race ANAL
gamation, and that race intolerance
means ultimately race war or the re-
duction Of one of the races to servi-
tude.
THAT therefore our duty to our
race, and our institutions and the
maintenance of friendship with
races differing in color alike demand
that we abandon the attempted ad-
justment of these questions by inter-
national treaty and pass national
law to take effect upon the expira-
tion of existing treaties, emphatically
declaring that our country is open to
white immigration alone; that such
immigration shall be restricted to
those of constitution, character and
training that will ultimately fit them
for American citizenship and that
other races shall be excluded from
immigration, except for purposes of
trade, travel and education"
Senator Newlands adds that digni-
fled legislative action of this kind
could be made the ground Of offense
by any nation affected; that Japan
herself would be the first to take
similar action were the integrity of
her race and institutions threatened;
that the United States had always
been friendly to Japan in her strug-
gle to maintain and protect her ter
ritorial and race integrity and that
such action was entirely consistent
with absolute friendliness between
them.

RACE MENACE GRAVE
SENATOR NEWLANDS IS ALARMED
over JAPANESE.
Says Controversy Is Not One for Dip
lOmatS. Believes Congress Should
Pass Laws Declaring the United
States Belongs to White Races.
Urges a Settled Policy.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb g.
Senator Newlands Of Nevada, in a
statement tonight, asserted that there
should be broad national legislation
covering the whole Japanese ques-
tion.
! "The legislation proposed by the
Pacific Coast states, intended to meet
certain phases Of what constitutes =
national peril, has been opposed by
the president as involving violation
of our treaty with Japan and imper-
Hing her friendship" said Senator
Newlands.
whilst the Western states will,
in all probability, particularly yield
to such suggestion. there is danger
that their abandonment of such legis-
lation may be misunderstood by the
Eastern states, whose people are un-
familiar with the economic and social
dangers attendant upon Asiatic i'm
migration, and that they may think
that we acquiesce in the view that
a great question Of national and do
nestle policy should be turned over
to the negotiation of diplomats.
mo question involving such i'm
portant questions as race homogen-
ity and domestic industrial peace can
safely be turned over to diplomacy.
"There should be broad national
legislation covering the whole ques-
tion and thus necessarily covering
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1909-02-11

the parts of the question which state
legislation in the West seek to cov-
er."
Continuing, the senator stated that
the Nevada legislature should, in his
Judgment, as substitute for the
pending measures, adopt resolutions
making the following declarations:
"That the race question is now the
most important question confronting
the nation; that already we have
drifted, regarding the black race, in
to a condition which seriously sug-
gests the withdrawal of the political
rights heretofore mistakenly granted
and the inauguration of a humane
national policy which, with the CO.
operation and the aid of the Southern
states, should recognize that the
blacks are a race of children, requir-
ing guidance, industrial training and
the development of self-control and
other measures intended t. reduce

tion, formerly sectional, but now be-
coming national.
"That confronting us on the At
lantic is Europe with a total popula-
tion of 600,00O,000 white people
whose surplus seeks outlet on our
soil; that we have found it difficult
to assimilate even the immigrants
of the white race from that contin-
ent, and have been obliged by law
carefully to restrict such immigra
tion.
"That confronting us on the Pa
cific lies Asia with a population of
one billion people, yellow and
brown races, who If unrestricted,
would overwhelmingly emigrate to
our country Of unrivaled resources,
of high wages and almost unlimited
capacity to support additional popu-
lation, that pre-eminent among these
people stands Japan, strong. aggres-

Smuggling Chinese.

Australia is perturbed by the dis coveries of MT. Batchelor. the com monwealth minister for external af- fairs, who has been inquiring into the illegal influx of Chinese. There is a wealthy organization in China with agencies in all the principal Australian ports and with the conGivance of ships officers the systematic snug gling of Chinese into Australia has been carried on for long time.
 The ships trading between Hong kong and the Australian ports have been so cunningly supplied with false bulkheads, walls and floors that hid ing room has been provided for 80 Chinese stowaways on a single voy- age Ship cooks have been secretly paid to supply the stowaways with food.
 The trade is very profitable, as Aus tralia is only a few days steaming from China and many thousands of Mongolians are always ready to pay large sums and run all sorts of risks to get to the land of gold.

Unhappy Lot of Chinese Doctors.

He patches health by contract Each family from whom he receives a year ly stipend can command his services at will. Hence his interest is to keep down sickness among subscribers especially since every day of illness means to him not only loss of time but the deduction of days pay from his honorarium.
 Comparatively secure is the lot of the ordinary Chinese practitioners. for whom the utmost penalty for a mis- chance is loss of income. as compared with that of the imperial court physi- clan. To this high functionary. wno attends the high officials also, inabil- ity to cure a patient is a matter of graver moment. Thus in November last the deaths of the empress dow ager and the young emperor resulted in the degradation by two classes of five doctors. while the president of the Imperial hospital and two assistants were prohibited altogether from fol lowing their professicn.-Harper's Weekly.

 Our Eyes glide by. and yet. dear love, I srieve because you may not know My spirits subtlest ebb and flow. The soul is yelled as a bride:

 Will pull the slow sweet flowers apart We long sometimes to tear away
