II is conceded, however that fall
ure on the part of the Americans to

blow TO national pride. and the people
feel that the world must be taught the

Count Okuma was loudly applaud
ed when he compared the attitude of
the California legislators with the
anti-fofcign movement in Japan half
century ago, which he looked upon
ms an absurd prejudice.
We despised the foreigners he
said, because they looked different;
we did not conduer them human be-

of its position and became an admirer
