M EAT FOR
THE FUTURE

After years of readjustment to
changing conditions, there seems
today to be a tendency to put
livestock producers out of busi-
ness mostly on paper. AS if
the adversities brought on by
the drought were not enough,
supposedly well-in-formed obser-
vers are predicting the passing
of the meat grower. Among
these are j. T. Russell, the pres
ident of the National Master
Butchers association, who has
announced, to the astonishment
of butchers no doubt, that in ten
years many persons will scarcely
know the taste of meat because
of it's scarcity. 1t is hard to be-
lieve that he is author of the
statement, but George L. McCar-
ty, secretary of the American
Meat Packers association. is quo
ted as saying that there is a
strong probability of a substitute
for meat being used extensively
in the near future.
Although portions of Kansas
of late have been forced to un-
load cattle freely because of the
lack of feed and water, the dis
tricts of the state having fair
feed conditions have been buy
ing more stockers and feeders at
Kansas City than a year ago.
Iowa and Illinois, with the
highest farm land values in the
United States, are among the
heaviest purchasers of thin cattle.
The older agricultural regions
are finding live stock farming
profitable and show no tendency
to discard it. The Southwest is
placing itself in a position to in
crease its meat producing capa-
city and had made gratifying
progress in that direction until
the drought came. Even now
there is no evidence that the
number of meat growers in this
region will not increase in the
next decade if the weather is as
propitious as in the past ten
years.
There will be meat as long as
you and | live" +" said anew York
hotel man when asked about the
Russell and McCarty statements.
"The price may be high at times,
but the people have money and
will pay the price" And farm
ers and breeders, it may be ad-
ded, will continue to produce
meat because consumers want
the food and their farms and
ranches are fitted for it's profit
able production. -Drovers Tele-

Bic Livestock Deal Closed
at Prescott.

Announcement is made of the
closing of another large land and
livestock deal by the Hays Cattle
company, which has taken over
the holdings of Charles Garter in
Peoples valley, for $65, 900.
The seller has turned over the
property to the buyer and the
first payment of 500, 600 has been
made.
Since entering this county the
Hays syndicate has disbursed
close to a quarter of a million
dollars in that locality, and the
Carter transaction gives them
every ranch in Peoples Valley,
with the single exception of the
holdings of Mrs. Genung, with
whom negotiations are said to be
pending.
The Carter lands embraced
over 1900 acres and with the
livestock interests and the range
rights, the sale is regarded as
giving the purchasers the key to
a very attractive property in both
range and farming assets. Tue

Should Have Best Roads.

If France with about four
times the area and four times
the population of New York state,
can adequately and economically
provide and maintain from a
centralized source a national
roads system of "a, 900 miles, it
is not unreasonable to contend
that the same thing can be ac-
complished for the whole United
States,' asserts Lewis R. Speare
of Massachusetts, who served as
chairman of the resolutions COM
mittee of the second Federal Aid
Good Roads convention called by
the American Automobile asso-
citation.
France admittedly has the
best roads system so far devised, !"
continues Mr.. Speare and it's
national roads constitute about
6a per cent of the 365, 900 miles
in the whole country"
with our enormous resources
awaiting developement by the
extension of our road system,
there seems no reason why we
should not proceed with the
work building national roads.
National roads building did not
ruin France; it made France
great. "

Senator Boynton, administration

telegram was received last week, an
nouncing the wish to send Secretary

Legislature, there were two bills on
this subject before the Senate.

Sacramento, Calf, April 3O.-If the
purpose of the visit of Secretary of
State Bryan was to check further ac-
ton by the Legislature on an alien
land law directed against the Japan
ese, his mission has been failure.
The conferences between Secretary
Bryan and the legislators closed at
1880 o'clock last night.
Within three minutes, and before
most of the spectators knew what
had occurred, Senator A. E. Boyn-
ton, president pro TEN of the up
per house, convened the Senate, and
an amended land bill which provides
that no alien who is Ineligible to citi-
Zenship under the laws Of the United
States may hold real property in Cali
fornia, was adopted as substitute
for the pending measure, by unani-
nous viva voce vote.
In reply to a question as to whether
the substitute bill, drawn by Attorney
General Webb, which was acted on by
the Senate later would be acceptable,
Secretary Bryan said:
81 have telegraphed to President
Wilson and he deems it inadvisable to
sanction any particular statutes or
forms of legislation. He thinks that
it should be made emphatically evil
dent that we are acting just now as
the federal government, sanctioning
not this or that, but as friends of Cali
fornia wishing to be of such service
as is possible to California in a criti-
cal matter?'
Governor Johnson prepared state
ment, in which he expressed the views
of the majority party:
THE conferences between the sec
retary of state and the Legislature
We're concluded tonight" it says.
1--WE are delighted with Mr.. Bryan's
speech, and all that he said was given
the most attentive and respectful con-
sideration The members of the gov
ernment of California with unanimity
expressed themselves as desiring to
aid the national government and in no
wise to embarrass it. The spirit per-
vading the meetings was one of friend
ly cooperation and full of patriotic
purpose. After it all, though, / think
the majority CT the legislators felt, and
| certainly do myself, that no suffi-
cient reason has thus far been pre-
sented that should cause California to
halt in any contemplated legislation.
The Arvada enterprise., 1913-05-01

Wilson, was al, Mr.. Bryan had to of.
fer, and the paramount question here
is whether such advice will overcome
the previously announced determine,
ton of the Progressive majority to en-,
act an anti-alien land holding law
along the lines already agreed upon.
Secretary Bryan reaffirmed the
states right to act in :. manner it saw
fit, but suggested several alternatives
to the passage of a bill restricting
aliens ineligible to citizenship" bas.
ing his reason on the board founda
tion of public policy. Briefly, the al.
ternatives in the order in which they
were suggested are as follows
l. Delay immediate action and al.
low the State Department to try to ac.
complish the ends desired, by means
of a new treaty with Japan.
2. Delay immediate action and ap,
point a committee to investigate the
subject of alien land ownership and
act in conjunction with the President
in securing relief
3. Enact a law similar to the stat.
ute in Illinois which permits aliens to
hold land for n period not exceeding
six years and applies alike to all
aliens.
4. Enact law similar to the fed,
eral statute governing land ownership
in the District of Columbia, which is a
general law applying to all aliens
OF these alternatives, it may safely
be said, according to leaders in the
Legislature, that the last two are out
of the question.
Many Democrats favor turning the
matter over to the State Department
while the Progressive majority appar,
entity remains unchanged in support OF
a bill that would apply its restrictions
TO Orientsls alone.
The conference with Secretary Bry
nm served to show the breadth of the
sentiment in favor of an alien land
law that shall be effective in checking
the japanese and Chinese immigra
tiou. \ dozen or more senators and
assemblymcl declared the people OF
the state were almost a unit in de.
manding such law, and IT was threat
cned that unless the Legislature act
AZ this time, the matter would be-
stSkcn up through the initiative and
passed by the people themselves.

"As to the constitutionality of our
treaty with Japan, you will pardon me
If | decline to act as the supreme
| court. Further, as to the question of
immigration, l think we can consider
that question as independent of the
land question with which we are here
concerned.
Il have listened to what you have
said and l assume everything to be
true; that you have not overdrawn
nor exaggerated the feeling Of the
people of California.
In that case the first question is
whether the legislation is demanded
at this time. If it can be delayed,
then the first suggestion that the
President would have me make is that
you permit an effort to be made to
deal with the question automatically,
with view to reaching the same re.
suits without legislation.
IF the demand is so immediate that
this cannot be done, can action be de-
ferred for two years, and in the mean
time have a commission appointed to
investigate conditions and act with
the executive? Would it not be worth
while to try this plan before you
adopt the plan that might result in
unfriendliness from foreign nation?
81 am not going to indulge in any
speculations as to what may happen
If you do anything now, but am here
to advise against the use of any Ian
guage that would offend any people
that have dealings with US"
In case immediate action was de.
manded, Secretary Bryan said, he
would be in favor of law along the
lines of the Illinois law, or the federal
statute in the District of Columbia,
both of which are general in char
acter.
Either of these measures is prefer
able to language that includes the
words ineligible to citizenship add
ed Mr.. Bryan. President Wilson be-
lieves that if you use these words, you
might as well make a law declaring
specifically against Japanese and
Chinese ownership.
This expresses the views of the
President. He desires me to say that
If such law is passed, he will recog
ntze his duty as President to do all In
his power to minimize the ill-feeling
that might be aroused. At the same
time, he believes it his duty as Pres
ident toeurge earnest consideration of
his advice, which is given here with
no desire to interfere with what you
may regard as necessary. And further,
he urges that If you proceed at once,
you consider the advisibility of using
language that cannot be justly criti-
cised as offending those nations with
whom we are friendly"
Governor Johnson made a brief. but
intense, speech in defense OF the posi-
tion taken by the majority party in
California. He told Secretary Bryan
that the right of California to follow
the lead of other states was unques-
toned and declared that such
course now seems assured When
Governor Johnson took his seat there
was a general feeling that the alien
land situation had been settled. re.

from Washington.
Secretary Caminettl attempted TO
make a heated attack upon Governor
Johnson, whom he criticised for not
favoring the land bills two years ago,
