HOW EXPLORERS WERE SLAIN.
Details of Murders of Street and Rad
ford by Esldmos.

Ottawa Ont, Sept. IA more de-
tailed description of how Henry v.
Radford, the New York explorer and
George Street, the Canadian, were killed
by Eskimos reached here yesterday in
an official report from II. j. Demers,
head of the mounted police post at Fort
Churchill. The report is based on in
formation gathered by Sergeant Tolger-
ton. who was told the story by an eye
witness of the murder. an Eskimo guide
named Akutuk. Radford and Street,
the report says, had trouble with an
Eskimo who had been employed as
dog driver at Bathurst Inlet for the
Journey into the arctic zone and who at
the last moment refused to go. Street
took a dog whip and started beating
the Eskimo, who attacked him. Rad
ford rushed to Streets rescue, and the
native plunged a spear into Radford's
back, killing him instantly. Street
started for his rifle, but before he could
reach it spear was driven through his

CALIFORNIA; $ Proposed Land Law

The pending California land law was
primarily intended to keep the Jap
anese from becoming landowners, but
it has been amended so as to apply to
all aliens. AS it now stands no alien
can own land unless he has declared
his intention to become an American
citizen.
But it appears that the United
States has treaties with several ma
tions which give the right to Ameri-
can citizens to own land in for
eign countries without renouncing cit
izenship of the United States. In re-
turn, we have given the same right
to the citizens of those countries with
reference to owning land in this coun-
try.
The California bill will therefore be
considered a violation Of treaty rights,
and here a question of state powers
comes in and President Wilson seems
inclined to support the states rights
view of the case. He seems to think
that California has a right to say
how her lands should be held and that
the national government exceeded its
powers when it granted to citizens of
other countries the right to own lands
in the various states.
The subject is an interesting one
and the rights of the several states
will not, it is believed, be infringed
upon by the present administration.
The country has returned to first prin-
ciples so far as the rights of the states
are concerned.

From the Watchman.
Perhaps the visitor who gets away
from the large centers and into the
rural life of the Japanese is impressed
first by their use of all their resources.
The country is populated far more
thickly than the American can we'll inn
agine, and the struggle for existence,
always increasing with the rapidly
growing population, has become so
acute that the Japanese cannot anord
to waste a straw. The sea and the land
must be searched for whatever can be
eaten or worn. Even the seaweed and
the octopus serve for food Nothing is
wasted, and examples of thriftiness
must be seen to be believed. Hillsides
that would be given up in America as
untillable have been converted into
rice fields in 40 irrigated terraces ris-
ing above each other on single slope
and made permanent by walls of ma
sonry If there is no water on the
hillside it can be carried to the top
most terrace on the backs of the farm
ers and whatever is not absorbed by
the first bit of soil or the second or
third finds its way to a lower level. If
the hillside is rocky, even soil itself
may be taken from some distant de-
posit to the aerial terraces
In most countries the straw of the
grain is of little value, but not so in
Japan, where nothing is wasted. When
no food values are left the, straw is
converted into bags for grain, shoes for
the feet, raincoats for the body. roofs
for the houses paper mats. screens,
beds and numerous other articles.
