DID KELLY SAY iT?

llt lOIlON llIs7 llOIi NIlS SO' "O- va Alaskan has been going the rounds of fine Alaska papers late
 ly: Natives of Alaska who are members Of the Creek Church ar. American citizens, according 10 the treaty ma e in the tran = e. Of Alaska to the U. $. They may vote in elections in the ter ritory of Alaska. Other natives, however, who have become Americanized, but are not mem- bers of the orthodox church. may not exercise the franchise. >" This statement is attributed to Mir. w. A. Kelly, former superintcnd- cit of the Sitka Training School and also superintendent of na- tive public schools under the gov ernment. We do not know where the Alaskan got it, but we ven uure that Mr.. Kelly never made such a statement, for we do not believe that any man could even draw such an inference from the text of the treaty referred 10 above. Writing in Sept, 1908, Mr.. Kelly said; Tn the treaty Of 1867, by which Russia ceded Alaska 10 the United States, it was stipulated that all Russian subjects, including the Creoles and AIeuts of western Alaska, should enjoy all the rights, priv ileges and immunitieS of Ameri- can citizens. Are not the Thlin- gets, Hydas, and MetIakahtlaS justly entitled to tl e same rights guaranteed to the CreoleS and Aleuts by treaty stipulation"
 Theonly reference to the Greek Church in the treaty says: 'The Churches which have been built in the ceded territory by the Russian government, shall re- main the property of such mem- bers of the Greek Oriental Church, resident in the territory, as may choose to worship therein.

PUT ON HONOR IN IMMIGRATION
MATTERS.
Question OF Vital Importance to Pa.
cific Coast Is Dweft Upon
in Detail.

Washington, Feb 22-The text Of q
new treaty with Japan. designed to
replace that of 1894 and drawn with
the special design of eliminating the
restrictions upon immigration contain.
ed in that treaty, was laid before the
senate by President Taft.
The essential difference between tho
proposed treaty and the existing con.
vention is said to be in the fact. that
it omits all reference to such restric.
items and leaves to the national honor
Of Japan the enforcement at her own
ports the limitations upon emigration
from Japan now expressly placed up
on immigration into the United States.
The document is said to provide that
either country may denounce the
treaty at the end Of six months If It
fails to operate as expected.
Because it embodies this radical de.
parture from the existing treaty and
touches the question of the deepest
Importance and interest to the Pacific
slope, the injunction Of this conven.
ton into the closing hours Of the 61st
That the new treaty will encounter
opposition seems certain for even II
1t should be speedily reported to the
senate from the committee without
serious controversy within the com.
mittee rooms, the western senators are
expected to insist upon opportunity for
debate which will develop the full ex-
tent Of their opposition to the treaty.
Unlike matters o: ordinary legis-
fation, failure Of the senate to act up
on the treaty during the remainder OF
this session Of congress would not OF
itself extinguish its vitality, which
could be kept indefinitely alive in the
executive files Of the senate. to be
taken up at any convenient time.
This new treaty is one Of trade
and commerce." intended to replace
the treaty of 1894 negotiated by the
late Secretary Graham and Baron
Kurino, then japanese minister to the
United States.

"izzy" Snedden was right liter all
Izzy, doing bit of four for bur-

about women, and he had assured
Valentine that "a girl don't know
what it means to keep her word, not
that she don't mean to. but she lust
materially talks so much that she
can't remember half what she says"
The lieutenant governor, too. haG
istence of No. 1899, and Valentine be-
gan deeply to wish that his hopes had
never been aroused. Far better never
to have risen to the heights of ex-
pectancy at all than on attaining them
to be thus rudely cast from them.
But Valentine had not realized how
slowly move the executive wheels of
the government of a great and busy
state. A governor is held to strict
accountability for his official actions.
and in the important matter Of the
pardon Of man convicted to state
prison for a felony haste is entirely
out of the question. And it was one
day when Jimmy Valentine had lost
every vestige Of confidence in Rose
Lane and her uncle and in the lawyer
whom he had retained that hurried
footsteps resounded down the cell cor
ridor. A paper. a glorious paper bear

flashed before his eyes.

would feel uncomfortable in coming

prim little Mrs. Moore of her cowork-
err in the Gate of Hope society.
