DR.. JORDAN OPPOSES
THE ALIEN LAND BILL

Sacramento, Cal, April 2S.-Dr.
David Starr Jordan, president of
Stanford University and a leader in
the movement for international peace
has come to Sacramento at the re-
quest of Secretary of State Bryan, to
confer with the visitor from Wash
ton On the pending alien land legis-
lation.
DR.. Jordan is opposed to a land
bill of any kind that would single
out the people of any nation and
particularly the Japanese, with
whom he believes the United States
should be On most friendly terms.
He is to speak in st. Louis later
this week at the National Peace Con-
gress and will be able to remain in
Sacramento only two days.
AS an alternative to a rigid land
law barring those ineligible to citi-
zenship which DR.. Jordan declares
would be unconstitutional, he sug-
gests that if California has a real
grievance it should provide for
commission to lay the matter before
the state department at Washington
and have the controversy settled by
means of a new treaty.
"The japanese government desires
only to avoid a disturbance" said
DR.. Jordan last night. an that It
is in much the same position as our
government at Washington, this mat
ter could be settled to the satisfac-
ton of both California and Japan
il left to the state government
Governor Johnson has issued a
statement claiming CALIFORNIA; right
to legislate an alien land law, bar
ring from ownership aliens who can
not become citizens. He points TO
the fact that other states have pass
ed similar laws but that does not
mean that their laws are constitu-
tional. They are not constitutional
as California will find If a similar
law is enacted here"

Richard Olney thinks that the

Canal treaty, known as the Hay

Other great legal minds differ from
this opinion. But the point is
that where there is an honest differ
ence of opinion, the matter should
be arbitrated before some impartial
court. If we are honest in this
differing of opinion, we should not
be afraid to test it out before the
world and stand by the decision

When President Taft vetoed tn
Sundry Civil Bill, he was firm il
his belief that the rider ATTACHED
made it vicious bit of legislation
Soon this same bill will be before
President Wilson for his signature
and the country is watching to see
how he will view the measure. The
Brooklyn Eagle, an independent
paper with Democratic leaning
cites the situation as follows:
"Though impressions to the con-
trary prevail, it is by no means a
foregone conclusion that the Presi-
dent will not unhorse the rider
seeking to exempt the farmers and
organized labor from prosecution
under the law prohibiting restraint
of trade. This is the second at
tempt to have them enjoy such
immunity. Should the sundry
civil bill go through both houses,
it will invite approval or veto in pre-
cisely the form in which it was
presented to Taft, who denounced it
as a crime against the State, char
acterizing it as class legislation of
the most vicious sort.
Plain language has come from
other sources. For instance, the
Times has said that the Presidents
signature to such a measure would
be shock to his most earnest sup
porters and to the country, while
Harper's Weekly does "not hesitate
to record the prediction that if he
signs it he will commit political
suicide" Such a warning from
such a source is or should be calcu-
lated to induce a sober second
thought in the White House, pre-
the President to be disposed
to sanction the exemption.
1t is only fair to the farmers to
say they have not pressed their
claim, so called, upon favoritism.
They were included for the purpose
Of attracting support. What is
now attempted is the elimination
Of a long campaign. 1t is sixteen
years since organized labor began
to persuade Congress to take from
the courts power to issue injunctions
in labor disputes. Failing in this,
the "rider" was resorted to. Re-
sponsibility, therefore, should not
be saddled on the farmers. 1t is
nonopolized by organized labor.
As there seems to be no doubt |
that the bill will have the support |
Of a majority of both houses, it is
hardly too much to say that the
President must make a choice be-
Jween fidelity and betrayal. 1t is
that the matter was
discussed at a visit to the White
House paid by the chairmen of the
senate and House Committees on
and it has been
that they received as
of a Satisfactory char
lcter. If they did, and if such as
are translated into affirma-
i've action by the President, there
will be more plain talk and plenty
f it..

Jacob W. Botolin, the twenty-five

Asylum tuberculosis Hospital. He
recently examined $500 patients
and only about fifty knew he was
blind. He was able to tell their
temperature by the sense of touch,
the contact of his fingers on the
skin of his patients giving him the
accurate temperature. He is also
able to count the pulse beats with
out the aid of a watch. The won

other almost from hostile camps.
Will history repeat itself so soon?

TRYING TO COLLECT.
Mrs. Larimer Wants Boarder to PAY
for WaShbowI

A washbowl is the point of contro-
versy in the court of Topeka today
Who bought the washbowl? It's sta
uonary ENTHUSIASTICALLY good,
modern and quite convenient. Mrs.
Myra S. Larimer, 31S West Eighth
street, recently filed a damage suit
against Hazel auckland, asking 1910,
$25 of which went toward the pur-
chase of the bowl. The plaintiff
claims the bowl was installed at the
request of Miss auckland, a boarder
in Mrs. Larimer's rooming house,
1.-The Avon"
1T was understood that she would
pay for the bowl; she said to me, L
always pay my debts,'' testified Mrs.
Larimer, but added mournfully that
the debt was never paid.
Several witnesses have been sub
poenaed in the case, which is being
heard before Judge Robert Carver.
Miss auckland, who claims she was
under no contract to pay for the bowl,
is represented by T.. d. Humphreys.
Mrs. Larimer's attorney is her hus-
band, H. G. Larimer.

HE BLAMES BOTH
A Banker Finds Fault With
Taft and Wilson.
Kansas Blue Sky Law Also
Comes In for Share.

Chicago, Oct. 2S.-George B. Cald-
WELL president of the Investment
Bankers Association of America, in
opening it's second annual convention
here today, said that stocks and bonds
were down almost to panic prices
because of the dissatisfaction of capt.
tai with the administrations both of
Taft and Wilson.
For the past two years the secur-
ity market has reflected the disgust
of capital because the administrations
of Taft and Wilson seemed deter
mined to irritate and regulate bust
ness. The agitation has gone so far
that our government at Washington
is almost certain to be on the bear
side.
Good stocks and bonds are down,
almost to panic prices because chiefly
of lack of confidence and a belief on
the part of investors that what we
will get will be worse than what we
have had and that the corporations,
especially the railroads, will not be
given in the next three years a square
deal"
Mr.. Caldwell criticised the blue
sky law of Kansas and declared that
the notoriety given it had led the way
to the Introduction of similar legisla-
ton in forty states, in twenty-one of
which the legislation was dangerous
both to investor and dealer.

beef is the top sirloin, which is not so
cheap but is recommended because it
has no waste.
The next important item on the
meat bill is chops, either lamb, pork
or veal chops. Lamb chops, however,
are the kind mostly demanded, and of
course the demand is for loin and rib
chops, the most expensive. There is
the same solution as with steaks-buy
shoulder chops, they cost less and are
sweeter. This same principle again
applies to pork chops. The shoulder
chops are very sweet and tender, and
the butcher will sell them for less;
but very few people know about
them"

THE MEAT THE BUTCHER EATS.

In the November Woman's Home
Companion a retail butcher writes an
article entitled Reducing the Meat
Bill" in which he shows how peo-
pie who buy the high priced cuts
don't get the best meat. He says that
some of the cheapest meats are the
best. He takes an .itemiZed weekly
meat bill of $4.63 and shows, item by
item, how that bill can be reduced to
1921 just by using cheaper cuts,
which he says are better cuts. After
dealing with the various kinds of
steaks, in which, by the way, he tells
about the steak that the butcher eats
himself, he goes on, as follows, about
roasts and chops:
"A roast of beef costing a dollar or
dollar and a half at the present time
is not much; a hungry and healthy
family will probably finish it in one
meal. You can still enjoy good roast
beef, and surely for less money, only
buy the right cut. From past observ
alton the writer has found that nine
out of ten customers ask for the first
cut of rib roast. OF course they are
the most expensive cuts. The fifth,
sixth, and shoulder ribs are hardly in
demand, and the butcher has a hard
job selling them. These end ribs or
shoulder ribs of roast beef are not
only considerably cheaper to buy but
are richer in nourishment and food
value. When buying one of the three
or four ribs of beef, say. for instance.
Weighing five pounds, you will FIND
that you hardly have sufficient meat
left after it is carefully trimmed and
the bone taken out. The difference in
price between the first cut on the rib
and the two last cuts is at least six
cents per pound; and when you ask
for a shoulder rib roast, ask the
butcher to insert a piece of suet in
the center of the roast, or, if he has
time, to lard it with thin pieces of fat.
Another good piece of meat for roast

Storm Warning Causes Lake Vessels

Duluth, Oct. 2S.-Warnings of a

while boats waited for what was pre-
dicted to be the most severe blow of

cleared yesterday and some anxiety
was felt for their safety. None of the
boats in this fleet carry wireless APP
paratus and no reports were received
from them.
