LINGO SPEECH IN HOUSE.
Mississippi Representative Declares
 Himself Ready For War.

Washington, April 2S-"A war speech" in support of the proposed California anti-alien land law was de- livered in the house today by Repre- sentative Sisson of Mississippi If we must have war or submit to this indignity. I am for war" cried Mr. Sisson. 'I am with the people of Cal aliens from acquiring land"
 "I believe" said MT. Sisson, "that no nonresident alien should be allow ed to hold single foot of land in the territory of the United States. What would Washington say in answer to the question, was or submission? What would Jackson say? What would Cleveland say? What would Mckinley say?
 'I resent the efforts of Japan te force us to submit to her demands"
 Mir. Sisson took the position that the Japanese government in protest ing against alien land iegislatfon. was endeavoring to exempt it's citizens from the operation of the laws of states.
 ''If Japan now threatens us with war what would she do when millions Of her citizens have acquired land in our country?" he said. q lay down the proposition that an alien popula- tion holding land within our borders would be fixed and constant menace
 We must preserve to the American farmer the right to own the soil of our country without compe- tition which would drag down his standard of living. I would not sur render it unless we had spent the last drop of blood il. American manhood aiid impoverished cur country for a hundred generations"

Secretary of State Delivers President Wilson's
 Message to California Legislators
URGES THAT ACTION BE DEFERRED FOR TIME
Suggests Possibility of New Treaty With Japan Also Urges That Proposed Law be Made General to Apply to All Aens-Representatve Sisson of Mississippi Makes Bel ligerent Speech Floor of the National House

I land question with which we are her' concerned"
 Questions concerning the treaty anC the immigration of Japanese to tht United States had been asked during the debate.
 Deal with Question Systematically.
 Continuing, MT. Bryan said: =
 T have listened to what you have said and I assume everything to bt true; that you have not overdraWn nol of California in the matter. l can assume that the people demand thai something be done.
 Tn that case the first question is whether the legislation is demanded at this time. If it can be delayed then the first suggestion that the pres ident would have me make, is that you permit an effort to be made to deal with the question Automatically, with a view ito reaching the same re- suits without legislation.
 'If the demand is so immediate that this cannot be done, can action be de- ferred for two years. and in the mean time have commission appointed to investigate conditions and act with the executive? Would it not be worth while to try this plan before you adopt the plan that might result in unfriend- Illness from a foreign nation?
 Make Law General in Character.
 tT am not going to indulge in any
  if you do anything now, but I am here to advise against the use of any language that would offend any people that have dealings with us"
 In case immediate action was de- manded, Secretary Bryan said, he would be in favor of a law framed along the lines of the Illinois law, or the federal statute in the District of Columbia, both of which are general in character. Either of these meas ures is preferable to language that includes the words ineligible to cit izenship," added MT. Bryan. "Presi- dent Wilson believes that if you use these words. you might as well make g. law declaring specifically against Japanese and Chinese ownership. Presidents Duty to Urge Consideration This expresses the views of the president. He desires me to say that f such a law is passed, he will reeog- 1ize his duty as president to do all n his power to minimize the ill-feel- ng that might be aroused. At the same time he believes it his duty as president to urge earnest eonsidera- ion of his advice, which Is given hero with no desire to interfere with what YOU may regard as necessary. And further, he urges that if you proceed It once, you consider the advisability # using language that cannot be just v criticised as offending those nations with wbom we~are friendly"

 The official view is more hopeful owing to Secretary Bryan's mission, but public opinion still insists that the present is the most suitable moment to settle the whole Ameriean-Japan- csc question and thus prevent a re- currence of similar disputes
 An inspired article in the news paper Asahi explains that the delay in putting in force the Japanese foreign land ownership bill of 1910 has been due to the discovery of imperfections and the long list of these cited indi- cates that probably years will elapse before the amendments are approved.
