TOXIC. May 1.-piformation CON
tained in special dispatches from
America reporting the failure of Sec
retary Bryan's mission and the prob
able passage Of the alien land owner
ship bill by the California Senate has
caused disappointment here and
aroused popular sentiment.
At a meeting of the Americana Jap
anese society last night the speakers
heatedly discussed the situation and
pointed out the impotency Of the fed
eral authorities as evidence of race
prejudice on the part of the Californl-
ans in their determination at any cost
to ruin or drive out Japanese residents
Commercial relation against Califor-
MIA was advocated.
Resolutions affirmed that while
Japan had hitherto appreciated and
respected the traditional friendship
and believed that Americans generally
tsired to afford the japanese the
same protection and privileges as
other foreigners, the state of Califor-
MIA was determined to violate the
American japanese treaty, thus es
tranging and seriously affecting re-
lations, that unless the people of Cali
fornia recognized the gravity Of the
situation and modified their attitude,
it might be difficult to restrain the
growing irritation of the Japanese.
The leading newspapers in Toxic
express the belief that the last hope
is gone and that the only recourse is
the submission of the question to the
Hague tribunal
Should the bill be passed and signed
the most influential and commercial
firms assert that irrespective Of the
governments attitude they will de-
cline to exhibit at the Panama
Pacific exposition and will decline to
trade with California ports.
