THE WORTHLESS TOWN DOG.
Kansas Editor lnaugurates commendable
Campaign on Town Dogs.

Campaign on Town Dogs.
A Kansas editor has inaugurated q
commendable campaign against the
worthless town cur. He says:
ut has been discovered that "tramp"
dogs are the cause of all stringent laws
against the whole canine race. We
have never been acquainted with any
tramp dogs and so cannot deny the
proposition, but long and varied OK.
perience With town dogs has led us to
the opinion that nine out Of ten of
them are absolutely useless and worth
less. Hh hey clsase cats and fight among
themselves day times and keep folks
awake nights with their bowling and
barking. SO far as protection is con.
cerned the average town dog would
rather chase chickens than burglars
and is generally asleep or attending q
dog soiree in some other part Of town
when roberies are being committed"
The town dog is nocturnal rsyager
of the countryside, too. It is a sheep
killer for the fun of the thing. The
town, not the farmers dog, is the
nemesis of the. flock. And it will be
noticed that whenever an effort is
made to repress canine cussedness in
any legislature, defeat Is invsriable as.
sured by voting solidarity m n z
urban representative. Th Q country
may eventually be rid Of the worthless
town dog, but that time is not yet.

Fufore Over Picture Of Bathing Girls Divides
Rapid City.
Prof. Ralph Irons, formerly princi.
pal OF the high school of Aberdeen and
now superintendent of the schools in
Rapid City, has tempest in teapot
among the pupils and patrons of his
schools.
It all came from q class picnic and
what happened upon the outing. Every
body has taken sides and the town
seeths with pros and cons. Here is the
story told in special to The Ameri.
can:
because two high school boys, Nom.
bers of the senior class, took photo
graphs of two senior maidens bathing
in Rapid creek, the class is disrupted, /,
the board of education has been set by
its ears and Principal Irons fears for
his job.
"At the suggestion of the principal,
the senior class were gwen q holiday
Tuesday on which to hold q picnic, the
idea being to further initiate the testiv.
tiles of the big universities attendant
upon graduation. The picnic was to
take place of the senior class supper
In the bigger institutions of learning.
"Bright and early Tuesday morning
the seniors of the high school started
for Cloghorse springs, q beautiful
spot on Rapid creek. 6ve miles above
the city. Some went by train, others
on hay rack and some walked.

party Of eighteen boys or girls split up.
They had decided prior to arranging
the picnic not to have a chaperone and

saw to it that their daughters did not

PASSAGE OF CALIFORNIA ALIEN LAW
RESOLVES ITSELF INTO QUESTION
OF DIPLOMACY.

Washington May 9.-The Japanese
embassy was supplied by the state de.
partment Monday with a copy of the
alien land bill passed by the California
legislature, and the ambassador will
employ the time between now and
Bryan's return to Washington in the
preparation Of formal protest against
the measure. Apparently the embassy
has no hope that any word President
Wilson may send to, California will in
f1uence Governor Johnson to withhold
his signature from the bill, so the only
object OF the protest will be to ac-
quaint the American people with the
Japanese attitude and il possible to In.

action Of the United States courts will
be required and much attention will be
given to the procedure to be followed
In arranging judicial test Of the Gal
ifornia Law. It will be for Bryan to de.
termine whether the government will

ter.
International lawyers hint that the

ture, probably from this point on it
must defend the California law against
Japan, in the diplomatic struggle about
to begin. If the department should
adopt the California contention that
the land law does not violate the
existing treaties with Japan, then 1t
might feel bound to refuse to submit
the issue to arbitration by the Hague
tribunal.
II Is further contended that the
United State probably will be unable
to enforce decree of that tribunal in
case 1t be adverse to California, If the
American courts fnd that the state
acted within its rights in enacting the
law. No case has yet been found where
supreme court has passed upon the
relative force of treaty which invades
the reserved constitutional powers of q
sovereign state and of conflicting law
of such state. There Is en- indication
Of feeling Of unrest. which may lead
to demands upon the national govern.
