Administration in State
Would Have Anti-AIien Law
Conform to u. S. Statutes

SACRAMENTO, Cal. April 23-Through
the exchanges of kilograms between
President Wilson and Gov. Johnson, the
settled policy of the California admins
tration on the question of alien land
ownerships, as agreed upon last Sunday
officially has been made known.
Gov. johnson and his party leaders in
the senate favor a bill excluding from
land ownership in the state all aliens in
eligible to citizenship under the laws of
the United States. Such law probably
will be passed. in spite of the objections
from Washington, it is said.
The assertion is made by the governor
that a state law Of this nature would not
be in contravention of any existing treaty.
He is upheld in this view by the majority
leaders in the senate, who met and agreed
upon the form of the Geographic reply to
President Wilson's message sent later
Democrats in Opposition.
Opposition to the Administered ton pro-
gram will come from the democrats
aided by a few republicans who are on
posed to anti-aien legislation of any kind
The democrats will seek to strike out the
words ineligible to citizenship" in any
bill considered, and on this point the real
fight On the measure will be waged
1t is not expected that the THOMPSON
Birdsall bill will be reached on file until
tomorrow, and no action can be taken
until then.
President Wilson's message appealing
to California not to pass any Legislation
in violation of treaties called forth little
comment. The democratic minority al
ready had formulated its views largely
in accordance with the Bryan message
that came last Saturday, and the pro-
gressive republican majority, as shown
by Gov. Johnson's response. decli".ed to
consider the Presidents telegram as a
demand upon the Legislature to enact a
particular kind of BILL
Gov. Johnson sent President Wilson s
telegram to the Legislature in a special
message, but without comment
Believes President Misunderstands.
State Senator Thompson said the
President evidently misunderstood the
attitude of the California legislature.
president Wilson seems to think we
are going to pass a DILL affecting only
the Japanese said Thompson, land
that s not the case. 1t will affect al
aliens who are ineligible to citizen

Monaghan and Malaysian stock will be
restricted.

 GREAT WORK OF ART

 This great picture was suggested by the superb symbolical painting by the late William Watt, of the Royal Academy of England, entitled Hope, :" a story is here told which is full ef heart throbs from start to finish.
 Hope Anderson, the good angel of poverty flat, rare. radiant and m selfish beauty. devotes her entire life to making the lives of others happy, bright and hopeful Singularly enough, while vastly successful in aiding others, unkindly fate has de creed that he own life shall be 3 series of disappointments.
 Despite all of this, her sorrows arc not so great that she ceases to be a well-spring of joy to others. This is truly great story of devotion and self sacrifice which claims it's reward not here, but in the life to come.
 Interesting scenic pictures and a rattIing good comedy have been pro vided to fill out the evenings pro gram and all who attend the Royal Theater either Monday or Tuesday will be more than repaid in real en- tertainment and enjoyment.
