COURT EXPOUNDs
LAWS FOR ALIENS
Federal Judge Declares That They
..,.~ ...,.t May Be Deported at
, Any Time
THE AMENDED ACT IS UPHELD
Important Decision Rendered in
Seattle Affecting Persons in
White Slave Traffic
THE AMENDED ACT IS UPHELD
CAss dated Press)


\ SEATTLE, Aug. 4.-FederaE Judge. c.
II. Hanford today upheld the eonstitu-
tionality of the amended federal imni-
grafton act passed at the last session
of congress, and ruled that all aliens
engaged in immoral occupations are
subject to deportation, regardless OF
the length of time they have been resi-
dents of the United states.
In giving this decision Judge Han
ford denied the petition for writ of
habeas corpus made by Uni Yoshida, d
Japanese woman arrested May 10 on a
charge of being an alien engaged in an
immoral occupation.
The womans attorney maintained
that congress had exceeded its author
ity in amending the immigration act so
as to remove the time limit during
which aliens might be deported, and
that the old law which sets limit OF
three-years was still in force. The Yo-
shida woman, it was set forth, has
lived in the United States six years,
and she had been here three years be-
fore She began an immoral life. She
sought refuge under the terms of the
three-year clause, and demanded that
she be released.
In his decision Judge Hanford said
that all aliens reside here by permission
of the government, and that congress
has power to eXpel them without
cause.
I'm the law of 1907 there was a ter
mination of the time in which aliens
might be arrested and deported,' SAID
the court. THE amendatory act of 1910
has made a change whereby aliens en-
gagged in an immoral occupation, and
all connected with it, are subject to de-
portation. The contention that the
three-year clause is still in effect is not
well taken. That clause was evidently
so obnoxious to that law that its force
is removed by necessary implication"

CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY
OF ZENGER'S ACQUITTAL
Chicago Attorney Delivers Ad-
dress to Club

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 4-Draping his
home in flags, Attorney John F. Geet-
il; of Chicago celebrated today as the
anniversary of the real birth of the
declaration of independence of the
United States, because John Paul Zen
ger, editor of the New York Weekly
Journal was acquitted after a mem
orable thial for criminal libel on Aug
ust 4, 1875.
Mr.. Geeting believes that except for
Zenger's acquittaL after Alexander
Hamilton, then leader of the American
bar, had told the jury to follow the
dictates of their conscience in spite of
the instructions Of the court the his
toric document might never have been
written and signed on July 4, 1916.
Mr.. Geeting addressed the Hawkeye
Fellowship club at the Grand Pacific
hotel yesterday and told the story Of
the Zenger trial. Zenger, he said, had
incurred the enmity of the government
by his fearless criticism. Grand iur-
les had failed to indict him, and finally
prosecution was begun on information.
The journalist it is said, was twice
acquitted, though the judge had in
structed the jury to return verdict
of guilty.

ITALY MAKES DEMAND FOR
CHARLTON'S EXTRACTION

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-What is as
sumed to be Italy's formal demand for
the extradition of Porter Charlton, the
young American charged with having
killed his wife, Mary Scott Castle
Charlton, at Lake Como, Italy, reached
the state department. AS that case
has not reached the jurisdiction of the

be presented to the magistrate before
whom the case was pending.

URGES COMING OF TWO
AND HALF CENT PIECE
Banker Says 1t Would Save Buy
ers S39,OOO,OO0

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.--The coinage OF
a 21s-cent piece by the United States
government is urged in a statement
given out here by William R. Short, a
New York banker, VINO declares the use
of such a coin would mean a saving of
S39,000000 yearly to the consumers.
THE absence Of such coinage" he
says "has resulted in the universal
custom of the sellers taking the half
cent whenever transaction does not
result in even money. / suppose it
would be a safe estimate to say that
each family loses the half-cent on an
average of ten times a week, resulting
in their paying 81 90 year above the
price of articles purchased. There are
about IS, 100000 families in the United
States, exclusive Of tho merchants, and
figuring on the basis mentioned, they
are losers yearly from this cause of
S39, 900 OOO."

which Yamagachi is supposed to have
left the Starbuck ranch.
The Starbucks communicated with

Santa Rosa, after the visit of the
Japanese, and told him what they had
learned. Thompson did not take much
stock in the story and stated that if
anything of the kind had happened in
all likelihood he would have heard
about it.
Yamagachi Is described as being
small. weighing about 100 pounds and
not over five feet, four inches in heights
He has. sharp features and light
brown skin. 1t is thought there is a
strain of white blood in his veins. He
speaks English poorly.

the affair he said:
"They all came at me, and I fixed
them, all right put them away"
Starbuck made every effort to have
Yamagachi more explicit. but in broken
English and in sentences that were
almost incoherent the Japanese kept
repeating:
81 fixed them; I fixed them. I put
them away"

COURTS OF RECONCILIATION IN
DIVORCE SUITS.

Several good things have come ont
of the little Republic of Switzerland.
The initiative and referendum are
among the political policies that are
beng gradually grated on TO the pre-
vailing systems in other countries, the
origin of which is traced directly TO
the wisdom of the Swiss. stin other
innovations are being threshed out
in the little land Of mountains, lakes
and tourists, that eventually may be
undertaken on a yaster scale by lands
of greater areas and populations bat
with less sagaciousness than the de-
scendants of William Tell and other
heroic opponents of tyranny. Not the
least among these is the intelligent eff
fort to check and discourage divorce
by official efforts at reconciliation. A
correspondent at Geneva tells of this
in the following interesting cable:
In one important respect the Swiss
surpass the English in the 'srnanage-
ment Of their divorce cases.
In every town there is q kind Of Of

fetal paper, known as the "Feuille d
Avis, in which one may read daily the
following announcement:
Monsieur and Nine X, who are in
instance of divorce, are requested to
appear before the judge alone
or with their lawyers, in order 20
come to a reconciliation, if possible. "
Before the beg. ming of every di-
yorce case in Switzerland, this notice
is published and sent out to the in
terested parties, leaving the couple, of
course, free to attend before the Judge
or not, as they wish. Often the couple
meet
Although there are no statistics pub
lished on the subject, am told by a
leading lawyer in Geneva, whose
specially is divorce cases, that at least
30 per cent of divorce cases-'much to
my loss, unfortunately" the lawyer
added, with smile-are settled by
the paternal advice of the judge at
these meetings out of court.
In fact, Swiss lawyers will not def
nitely take up divorce case until il
has passed through tie reconciliation
process.
If one of the couple does not attend
The rendezvous this means that the of-
fair is to be fought out, but in any
case Swiss divorces are not expensive.
The average. cost in a contested ca. E
is 5000, often 500, and the lowest
when both parties are agreed $40 to
$15.
In this country, where divorce in all
circles of life has become almost ram
pant, the Swiss experiments shoulI be
followed with perhaps even greater in
terest than in any other civilized land.
except it be France where family re-
iations are even more loosely main
tanned than in the United States. If
courts of reconciliation can check the
evil in Switzerland, why should not a
similar expedient have some beneficial
effect in this country?

4 HALF JEALOUS SPIRIT THAT i
DISCREDITABLE.

There is -half-sneer, half depreca-
tory tone TO the Atlanta correspond
ence of one or two papers of other
Georgia cities relative to the big
events Atlanta is pulling off this week
that is really uncalled for. There has
been too much of this sort of spirit in
Georgia, this tendency of one town to
decry the enterprise of another, these
haH-concealed darts of envy that pro-
duce a sore feeling. What is needed
is more generous acknowledgment
Of what any city does that tends to its
progress and to the development of the
state. 1t doesn't do city any harm to
cheerfully acknowledge that some 9th
er city is doing wonderful things, that
a sister, even rival, city is awake and
stirring and achieving. There is a
reciprocal spirit bred by such open
hearted praise that comes back at
some opportune time
Atlanta has done a wonderful thing
in bringing the Metropolitan Opera
Company there for week. No other
city in the South ever undertook such
a musical feat. Why not, then, be
generous and give unstinted praise,
even though an opposition city does
feel just a trifle sore that it is not in
position to do equally as great a
thing.
A city and state never grew great
without cultivating great spirit, and
a great spirit rises above small ami
mosities and petty feelings of jealousy,
rises to that point where it can ad-
mire and give ample credit to every
thing that its sister cities are doing.
Atlanta sometimes calls for criticism,
it is true, but there is no use in having
a cantankerous spirit and never open
ing the heart for a full need of praise
that has no string attached. And this
week is one that calls for just such an
evidence of unstinted good Will and
appreciation.

REFLECTED NO CREDIT ON THE
CITY GOVERNMENT.

With due respect for the constituted
authorities and the laws of the city, We
say, with regret that the action of the
municipality in turning off the water
at the Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton, reflected no credit on either the
city or its government. To the CON
trary, it conveys an impression abroad
that is far from creditable to the peo-
pie Of Americas.
The Y. N. c. A is not operated as 2
money making Institution. It is a
great public institution for the benefit
Of the city. It is one of the agencies
working for the building up of Amer
ieus. 1t represents a united effort on
the part Of the people Of Americas to
do something for the young men Of the
city. It is one Of the mile posts OF
progress that we are accustomed to
refer to with pride. 1t is one of the
attractions Of the city that we direct
attention to in seeking to induce peo-
pie TO make this their home.
The Y. N. C. A. was erected bv
subscriptions from vast number OF
the people of the city. The people of
the city are paying these subscriptions
to the building fund year after year
They are also assisting the institution
by yearly contributions. It is a work
Of patriotism with the public, work
OF love for Americas and of love for its
young men.
The public is right in feeling some
resentment that the city government
should have dealt a blow to the Y. M
Z. A 1t was an unnecessary thing.
We believe, to turn the water off. The
NJ. c. A. does not stand in the same
attitude to the city government as a
private citizen or a private business
enterprise. It is just as much pub
lie affair as the city government is.
The city could well have waited GA it
until its finances were put into better
shape. The little $50 it owed the city
was good, or it would have been re-
mited by wise Council.
The Y. NJ. C. A. derives considerable
OF the revenue that keeps it going as a
public institution from the rent Of ifs
rooms. Naturally the stoppage or
the water was direct blow at tn;.
source Of revenue. 1t also tended 10
disorganize the physical work of tie
institution. 1t was somewhat akin to
taking the water away from a steam
boiler.
The friends of the institution will
rally to its support and tie water bill
will be paid. But the stigma of turn
ing off the water that attaches to the
city is not so easily removed. 1t was
mistake that should never have oc-
CURED The people think so and the
fact might just as well be stated.
It is true that the city must run its
affairs in a business like way. But
there is a difference between a pubic
such as this and a private
citizen and that difference should not
have been disregarded in this instance

There are gains for all our losses
There are balms for all our pains;
But when youth, the dream departs,
1t takes something from our hearts
And it never comes again.
We are stronger and are better,
Under manhood's sterner reign;
Still We feel that something sweet
Followed youth, with flying feet,
And will never come again.
Something beautiful has vanished,
And we sigh for it in vain;
We behold it everywhere,
On the earth, and in the air,
But it never comes again.
