An EnnIish New

LONDON, May 21.--Regarding the
controversy between the United States
and Japan, the Daily Mail editorially
says:
1t seems unlikely that Japan will
force a rupture with so potent and ad-
versary over a matter of this kind.
but the Webb law treats the Japanese
as II they were only semi -barbarians
and Asiatic undesirables. The asper-
sion rouses them to fury and in their
anger they may drive their government

WASHINGTON. May 21.-Reassur-
ing advices reached the state depart
ment late today from Japan indicat-
ing the American reply to the protest
against the California land law had
been received in good spirit by the
Japanese and the situation has taken
on a much more favorable appearance
than at any time since the negotiations
began.
Officials here admitted their salts

Dispatches relate also that the Jap
anese government has realized fully
thet difficulties under which the Wash
ington administration has labOred in
handling the situation under the stand
ing dual system of the government of
the United States and the powers OF
legislation held by California.

ary character and made no predictions

Elected a favorable view in Toxic of
the American note replying to Japan's
protest
President Wilson, who had no small
part in the writing note, it is said, de-
scribed in the most complimentary
terms what he believed to be the real
feeling of the majority Of the American
people toward Japan. The communi-
cation, it is said, pointed to California
and only part of California too, as hav-
ing given evidence of a discriminatory
disposition. and insisted that the
United States as a whole admired the
progress Japan has made in the last
half century. respected the achieve
ments Of the Japanese people and in
sincerely anxious to show regard for
Japan on a basis of equality with all
other powers.
The note is about one thousand
words long and dealt chiefly with the
spirit of Americans toward Japan,
making little reference il is understood
to the technicalities of the new law or
treaty, but discussing Japan's conten-
ton that the California agitation is in
reality an act of unfriendliness and
discrimination toward the Japanese
Officials here are not in the least
opposed to The publication of the docu-
ment, but decision on this point is left
TO the Toxic government.
While the situation tonight is re-
garded as satisfactory in official quar-
ters the Japanese answer is awaited
with keen interest. Officials generally
however, are inclined to hope the acute
stage of the negotiations has passed.
The president, realizing that speeches
in congress at this time, might en-
barrass the situation, has requested
Representative Sisson of Mississippi,
who had announced his intention Of
speaking on Friday on the alien land
question to handle as delicately as pos
sible the diplomatic phases of the case.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

A Washington dispatch says that
forty-eight excursionists are nov
putting the finishing touches on
the last presidential election They
come from the nearest and further
most parts of the United States,
with expenses paid in a generous
manner by Uncle Sam, and each
carries with him packet addressed
to The President of the United
States Senate"
Theirs is an important function,
although very pleasant one. They
are charged to deliver the certified
votes of the various electoral
colleges to the presidin officer of
the United States senate so that
the president-eect may be formally
declared elected on March the
fourth. For this service, Uncle
Sam pays $13,972 20 every four
years.
On the second Wednesday in
February according to the contitu-
tion, the certified copies are carried
by two messengers with the presid-
ingotficer and members of the senate
following. to the house chambers
where in the presence of both house
of congress, they are opened, count
ed.compared with duplicate copie
and accepted as documentary proof
Of the election of the president.
While the senate is now presided
over by both senators Bacon and
Gallinger. in alternating periods, it
is 10 the Georgian that falls the
honor OF declaring" the election
of Wilson. He will occupy a place
on the rostrum beside Speaer Clark
and will preside at the ceremonies.
This formally closes the election
and marks the inauguration of the
incoming executive.

We've got three!"
Then he dashed of, leaving Mrs.
Knoall gasping. Three servants, In

on earth, then, could they AFFORD to

forced to call on the bride that after

Mr.. Newlywed was greeted with this
question:
