FROM THE JAPANESE POINT OF
VIEW

Your wise and friendly words are
appreciated by all Japanese in Amer
lea and in Japan. We Japanese come
to this country, like men from all 9TH
er countries, to take advantage of OPP
portunities here so abundantly offer
ed.
We fill no jails; We attend to our
own business; already we suffer many
disadvantages not suffered by other
peoples. You tell people of black
race to be good, be Industrious, learn
trades get property. get money, and
all viii be well. japanese do all this
Is it because We do it too well that
the honorable American people would
steal from US that which we so hard
worked for?
People OF America think that no
people have feeling or rights but
white people; in this they make great
mistake. Just as we can do all things
equal if not superior to white eau
cisian, so We feel Sights and other in
dignities. American people could we'll
remember that Japanese men are not
good-natured black negroes, glad to
smile and laugh at white oppressors.
japanese are men, and demand to be
treated as men.
We hope that you. honorable editor,
will be favored with all good gifts, as
your wisdom so richly merits I am
honored to be, faithful servant.-Ta-

Verdict Soon in
Russian Murder.

Kiev, Russia, Nov. 6.-The verdict il
the trial of Mendel Beiliss for the al
legged murder of Andrew Yushinsky il
March, 1911, is expected to be deliver

the verdict of a majority of the jury

tains the benefit of the doubt.
Elaborate precautions have beer
taken by the authorities for the pre-
Vention of disorders in case Beiliss
should be acquitted.
The closing stage of the cross exam
in9tion of Father Pranaites. the Cath
Ollie priest from Turkestan, who is the
principal witness for the prosecution
revealed the fact that he could not
even translate the titles of the treaties
he himsels had quoted as the source OF
his antiSecitic allegations.
Counsel for the defence of Beiliss
quoted chapter and verse in court,
Wednesday, with the object of showing
that Father Fanatics allegations had
been taken from earlier mistfansla-
tons.
The speeches of counsel for the pro-
secution and defence, which began,
today, will, it is understood, occupy
at least three days.
The public prosecutor, in his
speech. attacked the Jews for their
agitations in connection with the trial.
but promised that the government
would protect them whatever the YER
dict might be.
He alluded scornfully to Mistchuk.
a former chief of detectives for cast
ing suspicion on Yushinskys own
relatives rather than admit the exist
ence of ritual murders, and accused
krassovsky, former head of the kieV
police of knowing, but concealing, the
secret of the crime. He insinuated
that the attempts to incriminate Vera
Tchteheriak and her gang Were tost-
cred and financed By Jews, but had
failed. He characterized the woman's
associates as simple minded men,
though criminals.
The prosecutor drew an analogy be-
tween this and the Dreyfus case ana
his whole speech had strong politi-
cal leaning.
