San Francisco, Feb. 24.-The new
treaty with Japan which President
Taft has sent to the senate for rati-
fication has engendered a storm Of
protest here. The objection is based
on the absence of causes definitely
restricting Japanese immigration. La
Dor leaders of the state are indignant
members of the legislature are aroused
and criticism of the administration is
general. The state senate, at a spe-
cial meeting in Sacramento, adopted a
resolution urging congress to refuse
assent to the proposed treaty.
Residents of the Pacific Coast are
watching with interest the trend of af
fairs in Washington, where an effort
to crowd the treaty through was de-
feated During the debate on the
measure, Senator Hale said the treaty
represented a voluntary surrender of
a commercial advantage which this
country would enjoy for another year
over the nations of Europe, with whom
Japan is negotiating new commercial
relations.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Because OF
the action of the senate of the Cali

new treaty with Japan, President Taft
telegraphed Governor Hiram Johnson
at Sacramento, telling him the terms
of the treaty and the assurances of
Japan in the matter of Japanese labor
coming into the United States are the
same terms and the same assurances
of which Governor Johnson told the
administration not long ago that he
approved. The president in his tele-
gram asked the governor to use his
influence to prevent further action by
the legislature, which of necessity
would be due to misunderstanding
of the real treaty facts.
