Plantation japanese Are
Alarmed Over the
Situation.

An idea that the United States and
Japan are on the brink of war is abroad
among the plantation japanese and has
taken such hold upon some of the plan
tation laborers that those who are work
ing on contract are dubious about the
wisdom of keeping at work. "Why
should we work on these contracts
when it is not probable that there will
ever be any crop to harvest?' they
ask each other, and the answer is al
ways: "Why2"
The japanese papers have taken no.
tice of this and have united to dispel
the alarm among the japanese and to
persuade them to continue their con-
tracts and to make new contracts as
soon as their present ones run out.

SAYS CONVENTION WAS
FOR FREE SUGAR

WASHINGTON, May 16. -
Especial to The Advcrtiser) Sen
ator james, accredited with speak
ing for President Wilson and the
administration, interpreted the
Baltimore platform. in a speech
in the senate today, as committing
the President and the Democratic
party to free sugar. His remarks
Were in reply to the declaration
by Senator RanSdell and Senator
elect Broussard of Louisiana that
it did not.
In the gallery, listening closely,
was Jos. p. TumuIty, secretary to
the President, who went to the
Capitol to hear the reply to the
anti-free sugar Democrats, who.
FOR three days, have been assailing
the sugar schedule, which Presi-
dent Wilson has declared will not
be compromised if he can help it.
Senator James declared that the
platform at the Baltimore con
vention approved the course of
the Democrats in the last session
OF congress, and that it includes
approval of the Underwood Free
Sugar Bill. He read a paragraph
from the Democratic convention
records, approving the record of
the last house in placing sugar on
the free list.

fairly said to be the sentiment of the
United States at large.
Secondly, the present controversy
between America and Japan is rather
a controversy, or political nature, be
tween state Progressive administra-
tion and the national Democratic ad
ministration. For a third reason, all
the prominent Americans are earnest in
their denunciation of the attitude of
the California Legislature.
"And, more than these mentioned
above, the United States is at present
wholly unprepared for an immediate af-
fray, while Japan is lacking funds for
any bloody campaign. These reasons,
taken into consideration, are sufficient
to discredit all the iingo talk.
60 War is always the last resort, when
every possible endeavor for solution
meets with failure. The American-Jap-
anese situation is neither in such a
critical stage nor is it hopeless of a
peaceful solution. AS long as President
Wilson is empowered to enter into a
treaty with any other nation he may
choose and the senate, where such trea-
ty is to be approved, remains under the
control of the Democratic majority, the
present difficulty may be easily read
justed.
The latest report is to the effect
that negotiations for new treaty are
now favdrably progressing and we can
not, for a moment, believe that any
crisis is now in hand.
Therefore, it is our advice to the
japanese laborers to keep at their work
steadily and maintain a cool-headed at.
titude. Those who are still worrying over
the baseless rumors of war, had better
withdraw themselves from the world
and seek rest and ease in Heaven, where
no antrJapancse agitation is supposed
to exist

NEVADA SENATORS
COMING into OPEN
Newlands Bolts Party and Pitt

the Same.

Confirming the exclusive information
published in The Advertiser two weeks
ago, comes a special cable to the after
noon paper from its Washington cor

his party on the free sugar question.
The information published by this pa
per was to the effect that Senator New
lands was certain to oppose the free SUI
gar clause Of the Underwood Bill and
that Senator Pittman, the Junior SEN
ator from that State, would probably
follow the lead. The Advertiser has

question, he would put Nevada first and
Democracy second, believing that he
would be serving his party best by pre-
venting the wreck of the beet sugar
industry.
