OF July E. within a short time before

been made by mans teeth, DR.. p. j.
Higgins. who performed the autopsy
announced to-day that he would visit

Mysterious Man Seen.

Reese set out along the lake front road.
and as his auto came To the boat land
ing the light Of the lamps revealed n
man In a dark suit crouching on pile
NJ logs. Reese went on. and about
11.30 o'clock returned over the same
route. When nearing the boat landing
on the return trip Reese turned his
lamps on the same pile Of logs. and
there he saw the same man In dark
suit in n crouching position
He travelled but n few yards before
ne came upon a man I'm n gray SUIT
leading a girl in blue dress The girl
was walking with considerable trouble
and her escort was trying To help her
along. Reese passed without saying
ANYTHING and soon returned To the lake
and later went to his home In Plym-
outh.
Herbert Johns wore n gray suit on
Julv 4 and Miss Crispell wore n blue
dress. The place and the time where
Reese saw the couple are the same as
fixed by Johns when he said he parted
with the girl to leave her walk three
miles over a lonely country road.
County detectives have been at work
to-day trying to find the mysterious
man in the dark suit. They have been
unable TO find any one who will answer
the meagre description given by Reese
hut they are still at work on the the
ory that the man might be a jealous
lover.
Reese will appear before the Cor

tally with the story Of Johns, VINO from

rights which have been granted them
in the past. Surely this is manifestly
unfair. 1t is possible to make laws
of one kind or another TO regulate
future conditions, but certainly it is
not just to legislate regarding mat
ters in the past. If Japanese in Cali
fornia, under the laws of past years,
have been able to come into the
ownership of land in California, we
have no right to make them give up
the title TO their property.
In the second place, the Japanese
government feels that the California
law discriminates unjustly against the
people of Japan. 1t is, as they feel
and as ! feel very strongly, an act
which picks them out among all the
nations CT the world and refuse to
grant to them privileges which other
nations still enjoy.
And then, of course, there is the
all-important fact of the treaty en-
tered into by the American and
japanese nations. It would be, it is
felt, a great breach OF good faith to
break either the letter or the spirit
Of this treaty.
1T is by these reasons that Japan
Justifies itself in objecting to the
anti-alien act proposed by the legis-
lature of California, and it is be-.
cause Japan feels certain that their
claims are just that no apprehension
is felt but that the matter will be
settled fairly and equitably, if not
by the people of California, then by
the government of the United States.
How foolish it is of California to
attempt to discriminate in such a
petty fashion against the people of
the Far East. Ii they had any inn
agination whatever if they could
look ahead twenty-five years, they
could readily see that the future of
the western part of the United States
depends in a large measure upon
iheir friendly relations with the Far

tons wish to use that part of the
world for unfair exploitation should
be done away with. America in the

regard and we should not at this

MY visit in Japan, where | have
spent six months in lecturing to the
Japanese people upon the habits and
customs of We Americans, has been
most delightful and profitable. I
have the greatest admiration for the
pluck and perseverance, the industry
and zeal of the Japanese people. Of
course they are human like the rest
of us and have their faults, but on
the whole the great trouble with us
has been Z lack of misunderstanding
of real conditions in Japan. | hope
that | have done great deal of good
in instructing the Japanese as to the
customs and government of our coun-
try, and feel sure that as soon as
the two peoples have better mutual
understanding there will be no call
for future trouble. On the whole,
had the most pleasant time of my
life while lecturing to the Japanese
people.

CALIFORNIA Will
HARVEST Light
FRUIT CROP

Estimates of the fruit crop of Cali
fornia show that the output will be
much lighter than expected earlier in
the season, and in the case of Bartlett
pears it will be only half the size OF
last years.
The same is true of apricots, which
are reported to be but so per cent of
the last year crop. The dried-fruit
men and the Gamers are already bid
ding for the fruit, the former offering
2O15 cents pound, the latter $40 a
ton.
A frost in jacksonville hit the early
apple crop hard, and a small crop will
be the result. Plums and peaches are
now in good shape, and both will prob
ably be reasonable this summer.

Continues FIGHT
TO Defeat
TARIFF BILL

Having consistently fought the I'm
lderwood tariff bill from the day it was
introduced in the house, and deter
mined to continue to fight it until the
last gun is fired, the American Econ
omist in its last issue sees but little
hope of the bill being defeated. Speak
ling through its correspondent at
Washington, under date of May /, Il
sizes UP the situation as follows
The best opinion in the United
States senate is that the Democratic
tariff bill will be passed by that body
without any important changes. SEN
latOrs Penrose of Pennsylvania, Smoot
of Utah, and most of the other Repub-
lican leaders have expressed this opin-
ion to the correspondent of the Amer
lean Economist. They all agree that
while many amendments will be Of
fered by the Democrats, as well as
Republicans, there will be no change
|of real Importance and that the ratio
|of reduction now present in the tariff
bill will remain.
The chief fight, of course, will be
over the provision for 1-cent duty on
sugar for three years, when it will be-
come free, and the provision for free
wool. The senator's whose states are
interested in maintaining a duty on
wool include many of those who have
done the most harm to the cause of
protection by urging revision. They
will make pretense of fight, but it
is not expected that the Democrats
who want duty on wool will go TO
the extent of voting against the tariff
bill The only votes that will be lost
to the Democratic party will be those
of the two Louisiana senator's, whose
support of free sugar would mean
their political death.
So far as the recent fight in the
house is concerned, it must be admit
ted that there has been woeful lack
OF leadership among the Republicans.
Such lukewarm protectionists as Rep
resentatiYe Gardner. of Massachusetts,
have been permitted to take leader
ship in the fight. and if it had not been
for Representatives Fordney, of Mich
igan, and Moore, of Pennsylvania, the
Republicans would have made poor
showing.
Frankly acknowledging in his re-
port that a. revenue" tariff will not
provide adequate returns to meet the
government requirements and that
the income tax feature alone will pre-
vent a deficit in the treasury Chair
man Underwood of the ways and
means committee, led the fight in de-
Tense of the measure in which he is
a partner with President Wilson
