GOVERNMENT BY
COMMISSION is
NOW THE ISSUE

Jersey City, n j., April l4.-Govern-
municipalities favored by President
Wilson, when as governor of New
Jersey, he signed the Walsh act and
which has already been adopted by a
number of cities in this state, will be
the issue of special elections 'tomor-
row in this city, Hoboken, 'Bayonne
and Union Hill. Those are all munich
palities of considerable size, all in
Hudson county within few minutes
OF New York City.
Spirited campaigns for and against
mayor and Aldermanc government
ended today with the commission gov
ernment- boomers claiming Jersey City
as certain to vote for the change.
If the claim were realized this
would be the largest city east of New
cedeans and st. Paul to adopt the COM
mission plan. In Bayonne, the advo-
Gates of the change are also confident
OF success, but in Hoboken the oppo-
sition is conceded to be strong, and in
Union Hall the result is also doubtful.
The Democratic and Republican or
CARNATIONS are favoring the machine
policy with Mayor Wittpenn and his
associates including among the advo-
Gates between the aldermen and the
leads of 81 city departments are lead
ing the opposition as the aldermen
and many departments will be legis-
lated out of office if commission gov
is adopted.

HAS NO FEVER.
JAPAN. WILL STRIVE TO PROVE
.JcHPcHNESE ARE NOT NOVGOLS

Toxic, April 1.-THE Japanese cab
met reported to the emperor ,oday
tnat President Woodrow Wilson's de
c:sion not to interfere with the Calf
ornian land ownership legislation
makes it necessary for Japan to pre-
sent test case before the supreme
court of the United States, proving
that America would welcome q
eolian origin, and therefore entitled to
citizenship in the United States.
Washington, D. c., April 14.-The
general opinion in official circles is
that the America would welcome a
test in the supreme court in the ques-
ton of the eligibility of the Japanese
to naturalization. So far, all deci-
sions of record mostly in western
courts have held that the Japanese
were not eligible to naturalization,
not being such white persons nor per-
sons of African descent, as are men
toned in the naturalization law as
being alone eligible to citizenship.
The issue has never been tested be-
fore the supreme court of the United
States in a direct form.
The Japanese contend that they are
Malayan and Arian in lineage and
consequently may fairly claim to be
classified ethnologically as the white
persons described in the naturaliza-
tion act. The Importance of de-
termination of the question and it's re-
lationship to the alien land legislation
now pending in California, lies in the
fact that, as that act now stands be.
fore the legislature any alien entitled
to property for naturalization, may
own and lease land in the state, SO
that decision favorable to the Japan
ese contention would completely de-
feat the purpose of the legislation so
far as it might be aimed at the Jap
anese.
washington, April 14.-President
Wilson, talking Informally today about
pending land legislation in California,
construed by the Japanese government
as offensive, indicated that since his
last talk with Viscount Chinda, the
ambassador from Japan, some changes
Rad been made in the proposed laws
which might quite solve the situa-
tion. The president added, however,
he did not know Japan's view of the
alterations.

WILSON THINKS
TARIFF BILL.
is POPULAR

Washington, d. c., April 14.--Presi
dent Wilson believes the tariff bill
meets the general approval of tbs
country; that no healthy business vii
re interrupted and that while in most
cases the cost OF living will not be
immediately reduced, the consumes
will feel at once the benefit of re.
Eduction in the sugar duty.
These views were expressed today
by the president in an open talk with
newspaper men at the White House.
He explained that his main reason for
desiring a reduction on sugar was
that the consumer deserved it.
The president declared arrange
ments by which prices were fixed
would surely be made impossible when
a truly competitive situation was Gre
ated and that the public would get the
benefit very promptly in the case of
sugar, because he knew competitive
elements were ready to contest.
Criticisms, he said had been receiv,
ed from some perfectly legitimate in
terests contending that the cuts in
their cases were more than they could
at present stand. Mr. Wilson said he
did not see any ruinous cuts in the
bill. He referred to the fact that
members of the ways and means COM
mittee had heard every person in in
terest and that their judgments were
based on those hearings.
1t was suggested to the president
that many Ohio Democrats in congress
felt that free wool would be ruinous to
the wool industry Mr.. Wilson said he
had been trying to inform himself as
much as possible on that subject but
he did not feel their fears were JUS
titled by facts. He remarked that he
had heard just the other day that th,
Price of wool was the same on both |
sides of the water
In connection with the sugar tariff /!
the president was asked if he thought I
sugar factories, both beet and cane,
could operate under free sugar. He |
said that he certainly thought they |
could, remarking with a smile that !
the factories might shut down for ef-
feet for time, but that they would
open for business later.
The president said he hoped to open
negotiations with various !
as soon as the tariff bill was
passed.

lent Wilson in his first public speech
'ince his Inauguration welcomed the

re right to intervene against the un-
doubted constitutional powers of the
state of California, but that as an in
dividual, and also as president, in
view of his relations to foreign coun-
tries in that office, he was at liberty
to seek counsel in California and give
intimations of what he thought would
be just. He said he had been irving
to do that in as tao tful and proper wav
as he could and was not without hope
that the legislation might be effected
by his course.
The president said he looked on
the situation as a local one and that
other nations would not regard it as
4 general condition. He declared he
had the impression that Japanese un
derstood the peculiaritles of the SD,
uation and did not think the Japan
ese government itself would take Of
tense at the legislation as finally
drafted. He thought the only fear
was that strong national feeling
might be created in Japan, but he has.
not heard any intimations that Japan
believed the United States govern
ment at fault.
The president was asked what
might be his attitude in reference to
a new treaty with Russia, the last
having been abrogated because Amer
lean Jews were. not accorded equal
treatment with other American citi-
zens while travelling there The pres
ident replied he had not really enter
ed into the subject and it would be
deferred until an ambassador to st.
Petersburg was appointed.

Sacramento, Calf. April 14,--A pro-
test direct from Japan against an alien
land bill that would affect the rights OF
Japanese subjects in California was
read today in the senate. 1t was a

Newspapers of Osaka, and read as fol-
lows:
Japan, from profoundest noble
spirit, regret greatly appearances anti

hope earnestly not pass any bill which
destroy good feeling between America
and Japan"
Comment was made from the floor
and the message was sent to ! be
printed in the journal. i
