SUPREME court
MAY THROW OUT
INgOME IAKCASE

On a technicaiity the supreme
court may throw out the case Of the
Board of Immigration versus the
Board of Agriculture and Forestry,
wherein they seek to determine the
division Of $4,000 which was the
unexpended balance in the treasury
to their credit when the new special
income tax Law went into effect
April 80.
Argument for the contending de,
partments was completed before the
supreme court this morning and coun.
sci were informed they would be
given until nett Friday to re-frame
the question Unless the problem
can be presented to the court in a
different legal light 1t is quite certain
the tribunal viii decline to consid
er it.
The difficulty arises over the fact
that the controversy is a friendly one,
which cannot become the basis Of &C.
tual litigation nor result in direct
decree or judgment as 1t stands at
present. In other words. the court
holds it is merely moot question, in
which the opposing sides seek only
an Interpretation of the law.
There is statute providing for the
Submission of such questions where
they might be- the subject of li.iga-
ton. It is understood the supreme
Court is inclined to hold that, in its
present status the dispute between
the two territorial departments does
not come within the description be-
cause no litigation can take place as
it now stands.
The board OF immigration claims
three-fourths Of the $4,000 asN its
share under the old law, while the
board of agriculture claims one-half
the sum as its share under the new
statute. The Question is whether the
old or the new law shall govern the
distribution
It is stated now that If the present
case is rejected and an Interpretation
denied, the matter will come before
the court later in a different form
one in which litigation would ensue If
it were not settled. To bring this
about either board could present a
warrant for the amount of the fund it
claims, the territorial auditor could
approve it and the treasurer refuse to
honor the warrant, alleging the depart
ment was not entitled to that amount.

Speaking Of the legislation needed
to protect persons from drunken au'
tomobIle drivers. Ashford says:
Another subject which should be
strenuousiy dealt with Is that Of the
intoxication Of drivers Of motor cars.
It is already prescribed as an offense
for an Intoxicated person to drive
such vehicle upon public streets.
There is. and always will be, great
difficulty in producing satisfactory

HENS TO CONTEST FOR CASH
Four-Month Egg-Laying Competl-
ton Starts May Is.

North Yakima-The egg-laylng con-
test conducted by the State fair last
summer proved such a good advertise
ment for the winning pens and owners
that the hen marathon will be repeat
ed this year, with four months OF com
petition, instead of two.
Various changes in the rules gov
erning the competition have also been
made. The greatest trouble last sum,
mer was with the hens, which showed
Door sporting qualities and tried to 60
to setting. No way of eliminating
this factor has been devised, but each
team of five hens can be accompanied
by substitute this year, which will be
held in readiness to step in and take
the place of any hen which dies or ac-
ouires "any incurable disease"
The rules which will govern the con-
test will be identical with those used
in eastern states in similar exhibits
and will enable owners of pens to COM
pare the records of their birds with
those in other competitions.
The race for prolific layers will start
Nav Is and the "teams" of six hens
each, including five active contestants
and the "sub, - must be received al
the State fair grounds by May IA.
No bantams will be allowed in the
race.

FARMERS RAISE FIELD PEAS
New Crop Supplanting Potatoes in
Pullman Country.

Pullman - Fewer potatoes will be
planted in the vicinity of Pullman this
year than for several years past, the
low price which prevailed last year
having discouraged the farmers. Last
year potatoes sold nearly the entire
season at about so cents sack, which
is about the actual cost of production.
With the exit of the potato industry
comes that of raising field peas, and
this year will see probably twice as
large an acreage planted to peas as
any previous year. It has been dem
onstrated that the Palouse country is
admirably adapted to the culture of
field peas for seed and feed purposes,
and that this crop is as valuable as
potatoes for "filler" crop between
crops of grain, and many farmers in
the vicinity of Pullman will plant peas
on their summer fallow land.
Wheat will have larger acreage
than last year, while oats will not be
raised in such large quantities. Bar
ley, always secondary consideration
in this section, will about hold its own
this year.

JAPAN SEEKS COALING BASE
Wants Island so Miles From East
End of Panama Canal.

New York-An alleged plot of Jap
anese to secure naval coaling station
in the Caribbean sea, within 30 miles
of the Atlantic end of the Panama
canal and in violation Of the Monroe
doctrine, became known Wednesday
when the steamship Sixaola locked
here. George T. Burns, agent of the
Caribbean Guano company, who was a
passenger, said that the japanese gov
eminent was negotiating for the pur-
chase of Roncador island.
"The island" said Burns, els now
the property of the Caribbean Guano
company. 1t has superb harbor and
would make a good coaling base for
any navy. Ostensibly the Japanese are
negotiating through a steamship COM
pany, of which man named Arai is
the head, for harbor for a steamship
line which shall communicate with
ports on the eastern coast of the
United States and South America.
"The harbor is perfectly fitted to
make coaling station. The water is
sufficiently deep and the channels are
straight enough to admit the largest
warships, while at the same time
there is sufficient protection for the
smallest submarine or torpedo boat to
be perfectly protected from any stress
of weather."
It was recalled that Mr.. Arai was
head of the steamship company that
tried to get station in Lower Cali
fornia about two years ago.

Agricultural League Planned.

Aberdeen-C. L. Smith, of Port
land, agricultural expert of the Ore
gon- Washington Railroad & Naviga-
ton company, addressed the chamber
of commerce here and advised with
its members and visitors from the
surrounding country on the formation
of county agricultural league for the
benefit of farming and to further adj
vanced methods in raising of crops.
Attendance from Montesano, Elma,
Oakville, Satsop and Hoquiam was en-
joyed. Though the plan has not been
fully outlined, it is believed organiza-
ton will be effected soon. The county
has offered the use of its farm provid-
ing certain conditions are met by the
farmers organization.

BUILDINGS FOR GOVERNMENT
improvements at Nespelem Bring
Big Freight Contract.

Wilbur - Indian Superintendent
johnson passed through here on trip
of inspection which will include Mes
pelem and the western part of the Col
Vile reservation. Mr.. johnson says
that the government buildings at Mes
pelem are going up rapidly. A con-
tract was let few days ago for haul
ing 100000 pounds of freight from
Wilbur to Nespelem, and the freight
teams are now busy on the route.
The material hauled is for the most
part cement in sacks. The govern
ment buildings at Nespelem will all
have concrete foundations. Their
erection means the transfer of the
Federal Offices from Miles to Nespe-
lem, and it is expected that the build
ings will be completed and the change
made by October l Of this year.

Foreign Trees and Fruits.

Chewelah - To determine whether
fruits, trees and shrubs from Manchu-
ria, Northern China and Southern Rus
STA, will be successful in this climate
experiments are now being conducted
by the Northern nurseries Of this
place. The stock for these expert
ments is being furnished by the
United States department of agricul-
ture. A species of fruit closely re-
sembling the tropical date, native of
the mountains of the province Of Cau-
casia, in Southern Russia, is among
the lot recently received by the local
nurseries. 1t is thought that this
fruit will be successful. The nurser-
les have been given the rights Of
propagation in this territory.

at the meeting of the trustees here.
H. G. Barnes of Milton, was chosen

in Walla Walla and the affairs of the
sub-central of the North Pacific Fruit
Distributors will be directed from
here. The bylaws were adopted and
a contract with the local organizations
drawn up and adopted.
This contract will now be presented
to the local unions, and officers say its
signing is merely formality, as the
men who drew it up are authorized by
their unions to 60 ahead.

FARM ADVISER FOR LINCOLN
County Appropriates $1,000 Citi-
zens Pledge Same Amount.

Davenport = Lincoln county has
availed itself of the privilege of an
agricultural instructor under the law
passed by the last Legislature. At a
joint meeting of the county commits
sioners and the executive committee
of the Lincoln County Development
league, held in the commissioners
rooms recently, $1,000 was appropri-
ated by the board for the farm work.
The executive committee reported
$1,000 pledged by subscription by
farmers and business men of the
county, making fund of $4,000, with
prospects of an additional $1,000 from
an Eastern firm, which made an offer
several weeks ago, though it is not
known whether this last fund is now
available.

WILSON'S ADVI(p
Is DISREGARDn'
California Anti-Alien Land n
Passes Legislature,
Governor Will Sign ''After R.,...
able Time Party Lines Ivy
Ignored By All.

Sacramento, Cal.-The admin.
tration anti-alien land holding Nm
drawn by Attorney General w.u
passed the senate at 12:45 Satu,,'
morning by q vote of So to 2. 49,
nearly 10 hours Of debate. The ~
negative votes were cast by Sepss.
Cartwright, Democrat, and Wds,
Republican.
The principal provisions of the In
are as follows:
1. Aliens eligible to citizeD,,,
may acquire and hold land to the s,r'
extent as citizens.
2. All other aliens are limited Il
the specific rights conferred um
them by the existing treaties betvss
the United States and the nations
which such aliens are citizens or uS
jects.
In the case of the japanese the bin
prohibits ownership of farming Or 49,
ricultural lands, while permittis,
them to own residences and factorjs
manufactures and shops.
8. Leases of agricultural lands h
aliens are permitted for a period Il
not exceeding three years. There i
question as to whether renewal
would be lawful.
4. Aliens ineligible to citizenshi,
cannot inherit land. Upon the dealt
of an alien land holder his propert
shall be sold by the Probate court and
the proceeds distributed to his heirs.
s. The state specifically resera
its sovereign right to enact any and
all laws in future with respect to The
acquisition of real property by aliens.
6. Present holdings of ineligible
aliens are not affected except thai
they cannot be bequeathed or sold d
other aliens classified among those mol
eligible to citizenship.
A companion measure, identical i
phraseology, probably will pass th
assembly and will be signed by Cover
nor johnson after "a reasonable time
has elapsed in which to hear possibD
protests from President Wilson, VIII
has requested the respite.
In the closing hours of the debat
partisanship was lost sight of. Demo
Gratis and Progressives voted togeth
in response to what they took to
the almost unanimous demand Of tb
people of California. Their only diff
ference in the end was over the qns
ton of whether the bill was drastic
enough.
The futility of Secretary Byan'
mission was shown in the vote Of BIZ
own party. Nine of the ten Demo
Gratis voted contrary to the advia
which he brought from President VII
son, while not q single ProgressV
yielded to his eloquence.

Fruit in OREGON CAUGHT.

Pendleton, ORA hard freeze Mon
day night is believed to have wrought
havoc in the big fruit and vegetable
section around Milton and Freewater,
in the East end Of this county. Ow-
ing to previous warm weather and the
lateness of the season, some Of the
largest orchardists had removed their
smudge material, which had been kept
in readiness for just such occasions all
spring. Peaches and cherries are be-
lieved to be almost a total loss.
