the greatest Mexican rebel, Gen.

sudden tragic glow in her eyes.
While her illustrious uncle has been
repeatedly triumphing over the
Huerta forces, Senorita Carranza has
been winning repeated triumphs of
her own, as a soloist at concerts in
New York, Newport and Boston.
But my heart is with my poor
country and the despairing women
of my country she exclaimed, when
interviewed here today.
you American men have talked
of going to war with Mexico. Don't
do it. You don't know what it means.
Only women understand how horri-
BILE war really is. Men think it a sort
of game, like your football, only play
ed on a. more grim and tragic field.
When the game is over they declare
solennly that war is hellp But, just
the same, they go back to their game
every time they have chance, just
for the excitement of it!-and the
loot!

alien land bill became the law Of the
state today, to take effect August 10
Against the protests of Japan and
the representations of President Wilson
and his personal envoy. Secretary
Bryan. Governor Johnson signed the
Webb bill and so days after the adj
journment of the Legislature
While the governor was signing the
bill. the steamship Korea. bearing two
distinguished Japanese. one a former
pupil OF President Wilson. was passing
through the Golden Gate on mis-
sion OF investigation.
JOHNSON DEFENDS ACT
Governor Johnson in reply to threat
ened hostility to the act through the
referendum gave out the following
statement:
California for the first time in It's
history has an alien land law. Anv
man who wishes another kind of law
may consistently invoke the initiative.
no man who really wishes an alien
land law will sign referendum as
to this law.
IF another law Is sought 1t may be
presented by means of the initiative.
and in the meantime the present law
will be in operation. To tie up the
present law means no law until Mo-
vember. 1914"
Meanwhile. complications national
and sectional beset the bill. Over
shadowing all is the outcome of the
negotiations now in progress between
this country and Japan. which has in
terpreted the act as discriminatory and
offensive.
TRIPLE HOSTILITY IN STATE
Within California itself the act has
encountered triple hostility. which may
delay its actuality until November. 1914
In the first place, the democrats OPP
posed state legislation at this time as
a matter of party regularity, Never
theless, so plain to them seemed to be
the demand for the bill that. after ex-
hausting all parliamentary tactics. the
senate gave but one adverse democratic
vote, and the assembly but two.
AS an expression of this opposition.
Theodore Bell recent democratic cam
didate for governor and former chair
man of the democratic state central
committee, has issued an invitation to
his party to submit the issue TO the
people by invoking the referendum
against the bill.
He grounds his opposition on two
contentions-one that the bill is i'm
sufficiently drastic because 1t permits
leases running three years; and second.
because at the present 1t embarrasses
the national administration.
FAIR DIRECTORS OPPOSE ACT
The Asiatic Exclusion league has an
nounced last night that it would invoke
the referendum purely because II OPP
poses the bill as faint hearted.
Thirdly. the powerful Panama Pa
cific international Exposition company
backed by many Chambers of Com
merce. has placed itself on record in
opposition to the bill on the ground
that it is violation of faith.
ANY action of the legislature said
the directors OF the company. of
fensive to any foreign country to their
pride as people or their honor as
nation. must challenge the good faith
of the commonwealth.
