NO MORE APPENDICITIS

1t is safe to say that if the colon

from waste matter appendicitis
would never develop, for it is
waste matter in the appendix that

There is just one successful and
natural way TO keep the colon free

Warm water, properly applied,
is Natures own cure, and it pre-
vents many other ills too-consti-

Drugs must be persisted in and

WHY CALIFORNIA INSISTS ON RE
JECTlNG JAP LAND OWNERS.

Washington.-Califo Represent
atives in Congress to man are in
favor of the Anti-Alien Land act. They
frankly acknowledge that the legisla-
tiontion is aimed chiefly at Japan, and
justify their State on the grounds that
the foundation of a new and greater
race problem" has been laid in Cali
fornia, and that it's growth should be
Immediately checked.
"The Japanese population is being
increased at rapid rate" said Con-
gresham Baker. Nearly 1000 pic
ture brides have been coming from
Japan annually, and the japanese are
a prolific race.
"They cannot assimilate with Amer
leans, and their presence is being felt
more and more. The situation Is be-
coming intolerable, and the sooner IL
is faced the better for both nations"
can American farmer who suddenly
finds that his only neighbors are ORR.
entails promptly sells out at sacrifice
and moves away" said Representative
Church. I'm this way the. Japanese
land holdings increase rapidly wher.
ever they get foothold, and they are
prompt to take advantage of the con.
d1t1ons which their presence creates"

I AIRMEN DIE IN

Four Military Aeronauts and C'v''

Greek Aviator and Passenger
Fall 1000 Feet to Death.

Paris.-The French Army balloon
Zodiac exploded in midair near Noisy
le-Grand. Of the five occupants four
were killed outright and the fifth died
soon afterWard.
The balloon assembled at st. Cloud
and was carried by a westerly breeze
over Paris toward Fontenay-sous-Bols
The proprietor of cafe there noticed
that the aeronauts were throwing out
ballast and that the balloon appeared
to be in distress. 1t was flying very
low.
A moment later the car collided
with a chimney and was thrown vio-
lently on its side. The car then
cleared the chimney and the balloon
proceeded. It sWayed from side to
side and the occupants could be seen
making signals of distress. Some of
them we're evidently hurt.
The wind changed and the balloon
was blown against the side of house.
Rebounding, it crashed into telegraph
wires. 1t got clear again and was
blown away toward Viller-sur-Marne.
A few minutes later a loud ex-
plosion was heard, a luminous cloud
shot upward, and the car hurtled to
the ground.
Peasants in the neighborhood rushed
to the spot and found the five men
lying bleeding amid the wreckage.
Two officers. Lieutenant De Noue and
Sergeant Richly were lifeless. A
civilian named Aumont-Thieville died
in a few minutes. The fifth victim,
Captain Clavenad, died in hospital
at Vincennes,

Sacramento, Cal.-Inpressed by the
violence of the popular agitation In
Japan against the proposed anti-allen
land legislation by this State, the
leaders of the Senate caused further
action on the pending measures to be
deferred. Moreover, 1t was said, some
word is expected from Washington re-
garding the protest of the Japanese
Government against possible infringe
ment of the treaty rights of Japanese
citizens in this State.
Reports of the strong feeling in
Toxic caused much comment in the
legislative chambers, and the inquiries
as to the effect Of the proposed bills
upon other alien interests in California
led to the belief that President Wilson
might find it expedient to state his
views or suggest some course that
would relieve the situation.
A poll of the Senate showed an
overwhelming majority in favor OF
some anti-alien bill, but only hand
full of Senators indicated a wish to
include in it's provisions foreigners
or foreign corporations controlled by
persons eligible to citizenship.

JAPANESE WAR SONGS SUNG
BY AROUSED TOXIC CROWDS

Toxic, Japan. - The situation
brought about by the California Alien
Land-Holding bill is becoming increas-
ingly serious. A mass meeting COM
posed for the most part of irresponsi-
BILE people, demanded the most ex-
IRENE measures of retaliation by
Japan. During the gathering the sing
ing of war songs aroused the feelings
of many of the lower classes.
Anonymous writer's in. the news
papers give an outline of plans for the
seizure of the Philippines and Hawaii,
and at the same time denouncer the
Japanese governments submissive at
titude. Messrs. Mabie, Peabody and
Mott and number of representative
Japanese Christians and Americans
met in the home Of Count Shigenobu
Okuma, former Premier and Minister
of Foreign Affairs.
Count Okuma delivered speech, in
which he said that diplomacy, the
courts and commercial men were help
less, and that only the influence of
Christianity remained. Otherwise, he
declared, war was impending.

WASHINGTON AROUSED
BY JAPANESE JiNGOISM

Washington. - The latest develop
ments in the California Japanese legis-
lation are these:
President Wilson, Secretary of State
Bryan and Secretary of the Interior
Lane have examined the alien land
laws of several States and have found
that there is little difference between
the laws of some of these States and
the law now pending in the California
Legislature, to which Japan has raised
objection. The President and his ad-
visers have found the alien land laws
of New York and the District of Co.
lumbia are similar to the bill now
pending in the California Legislature.
President Wilson, therefore, will
not interfere formally with California.
