Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-Colorado's protest to the
federal policy of controlling and ad.
ministering the public domain, pre-
pared by Governor Ammons, after
several weeks work, was presented
to both branches of the Legislature.
The memorial prepared by Governor

enunciated Throughout the memorial.

methods of control and supervision is
taken up and combated by argument.
In its array of facts and figures the
memorial that is given to the Legisla-
ture for action is in every sense
brief for the whole West.

JOHNSON SIGNS
ALIEN LAND BILL
PROTESTS OF PRESIDENT Will
SON AND SECRETARY BRYAN
ARE NOT Needed
Act Becomes effective Within Ninety
Days After Adjournment Of Legis-
iature, or on August 10, But Ref
erendum May be Invoked.

Sacramento, Cal. California's
alien land bill became the law of the
state on May 49, Against the pro
tests of Japan and the representa-
tions of President Wilson and his
personal envoy, Secretary of State
Bryan. Governor Johnson signed the
bill, and ninety days after the ad-
journment of the legislature, or on
August 10, the act becomes effective.
While the governor was signing
the bill the steamship Korea was
passing through the Golden Gate
bearing two distinguished Japanese,
one a former pupil of President Will
son, on a visit of investigation.
Meanwhile complications, national
and sectional, beset the bill. Over
shadowing all is the outcome of the
negotiations now in progress between
this country and Japan, which has in
terpreted the act as discriminatory
and offensive
Within California Itself the act has
encountered triple hostility, which
may delay its actuality until Novem-
Der, 1914. Democrats opposed state
legislation at this tine, as meas
ure of party regularity. Neverthe-
less, SO plain to them seems to be
the demand for the bill that. after
exhausting all parliamentary tactics,
the senate gave but one adverse
Democratic vote, and the assembly
but two.
AS an expression of this opposition,
Theodore Bell, late Democratic can.
didate for governor, and former
chairman of the Democratic state
central committee, has issued an in
vitation to his party to submit the is
sue to the people by invoking the ref
erendum against the bill. He grounds
his opposition on two contentious
one that the bill is insufficiently dras-
tic because it permits leases, run
ming three years, and second, be-
cause at the present it embarrasses
the national administration.
