Ter, whose greatest achievement was
the building of the Florida & East

MAS alien land bill, which was signed
Monday, is now the law of the state
against the protests of Japan and the
representations of President Wilson
and his personal envoy, Secretary OF
State Bryan. Ninety days after the
adjournment of the legislature, on
August 10, the act becomes operative.
Investigators Arrive.
While the governor vas signing the
bill the steamship Korea was passing
through the Golden Gate bearing two
distinguished japanese, one a former
pupil of President Wilson, on a mis-
sion of Investigation.
Meanwhile, complications, national
and sectional, beset the bill. Over.
shadowing all is the customs of the
negotiations now in progress between
this country and Japan, which has
interpreted the act as discriminatory
and offensive.
Within California itself, the act has
encountered triple hostility which
may delay its activity until November
1, 1914. Democrats opposed state leg
islation at this time as a matter of
party regularity. Nevertheless, so
plain to them seems to be the demand
for the bill that, after exhausting all
parliamentary tactics the senate gave
but n adverse Democratic vote and
the assembly but two.
Bell for Referendum.
AS an expression of this opposition,
Theodore Bell, late Democratic candi-
date for governor and former chair
man of the Democratic state central
committee, has issued an invitation to
his party to submit the issue to the
people by invoking the referendum
against the bill. He grounds his op-
position on two contentions-one that
the bill is insufticiently drastic be-
cause it permits leases running three
years; and, second, because at the
present it embarrasses the national
administration.
The Asiatic Exclusion league, an or
ganization of which the president is
Olaf A. Tveitmoe, recently convicted
of completely in the national dynamite
plot, originating in Indianapolis, an
nounced Sunday night that it would
invoke the referendum purely because
it opposes the bill as faint-hearted.
Thirdly, the powerful Panama-Pacif-
ic International Exposition company,
backed by many members of com
merce, has placed itself on record in
opposition to the bill on the ground
that it is a violation of faith.
Directors of Exposition Oppose.
ANY action of the legislature" said
the directors of the company, often
sive to any foreign country, their
pride as a people, or their honor as
a nation, must challenge the good
faith of the commonwealth"
In reply to this threatened hostili.
ty, Governor Johnson said, in signing
the bill:
California for the first time in it's
history, has an anti-alien law. Any
man who wishes another kind of law
may consistently invoke the initiative.
No man who really wishes an anti
alien law will sign the referendum as
to this law.
IF another law is sought, it may be
presented by mean of the initiative,
