AGREE UPON A NEW
MEASURE THOUGH
NO BACKWARD STEP
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATORS WILL
PROBABLY PASS THE ALIEN
LAND BILL.
TREATY RIGHTS NOT INFRINGED
All Aliens Eligible to Become citi-
zens May Hold Land Under Law
Only to the Extent Provided BY
the Respective Treaties.

SACRAMENTO Cal, April go
Gov. Johnson, Attorney General
Webb and progressive leaders have
reached substantial agreement on
an entirely new alien land bill that
will accomplish every purpose with
out permitting the slightest question
of conflict with treaty rights.
The prediction is safe that it will
pass both houses and become a law.
The measure was drawn by Attor-
lney General Webb. 1t provides that
all aliens who are eligible to become
citizens of the United States may
hold lands the same as native-born
citizens. Next it provides that aliens
who are not eligible to become citi-
zens of Tue United States may hold
lands only to the extent and in the
manner provided by the respective
treaties now in force between the
countries OF their nativity and this
country and not otherwise.
Then follows a declaration that
| the bill shall not be construed as a
surrender OF waver on the part OF
California to any extent whatever OF
| its rights to regulate for itself the
Ownership OF land within it's borders
notwithstanding any treaty hereto
fore or hereafter made by the United
States.
Attorney General Webb's bill has
met with the approval of the Cover
nor and is considered a final and very
good solution of the problems. The
idea was .sngsested to Webb by Fran
els ]. HeneHs proposal of measure
that would grant to ineligible aliens
only those rights respecting land ten
ure that are set forth in the treaty
Heneys bill set forth the treaty pro
visions and therefore pointed TOO di
rectly to the Japanese.
Webb's resolution is considered {
stroke of genius, and progressive
leaders are immensely pleased.
1t is understood that the bill will
be substituted for the Thompson
Birdsell bill.
Secretary OF State Bryan laid a Y
M. c. A. cornerstone during the da!
and spent considerable time in the
senate listening to debates on anti
capital punishment and anti.priz'
fighting bills and familiarizing him
lself with the Japanese situation. HI
sent numerous cipher messages t.
Washington.
Tonight the secretary attended ;
banquet given in his honor by Speak
er Young of the assembly. Most o
the legislators were present. Anoth
Ier conference was scheduled hetweer
Mr.. Bryan and the Legislators follow
ing this event.
| General sentiment continues tina
Secretary Hryan's visit has ayailet
nothing.
Gov. Johnson is still firm in the be
lief that an anti-alien bin should b,
passed in such way as to exclude
Japanese and other Asiatic peoples
from holding land in California.
Hundreds of kilograms and letters
are being received by the governor
idaily on the alien land question. s@s
/ Fifty to one they are in favor O

ernor. Realty boards and chamber.
of commerce are opposing the move
lbut the general public wants an alier

 children, had kept the telegraph
 wires hot between this city and
 their destination so that there can
 be no possible danger of the little

 any attention on the way.
 The agent at Maricopa was wired,
 as was also every agent at every

 along the route of the long journey.
 in addition to this the conductor
 here was entrusted with the ticket
 and what money they will need, and
 he was instructed to pass the ticket along to the next conductor, with the money. and the next conductor will pass the ticket along, and so on until the last conductor on the last lap of the journey puts the little tots off at the station of their des- tination in the arms of their Auntie Strahan. who will make q comfort able. cheerful home for the little ones
 Mrs Strahan knows they are on their way. She was appraised yes teerday by telegram when they would start. and had previously sent the money for them to travel on. Officer Canning and his good wife have been puSily preparing the little fel- lows with new clothes and a good outfit to travel in. The good folk at the Children's Home did their share in the work of preparation for the iOurneY
 They will be all right all along the way The conductors of the Southern Pacific system have at tended we'll to such matters many times before The agents at the stations will every one be interested in the tots and will visit them at the stations at which he train stops.

HAS
MADE STATEMENT

Washinton, June POSTMASTER
General Burleson yesterday made out
a statement summarizing various
measures adopted or contemplated in
the administration Of the postal serv-
ice. The statement says in part:
During the ninety days Of the new
administration about 1000 additional
clerks and approximately 500 addition
al city letter carriers have been at
tached to the various pOstOfflces
throughout the country, n besides
these additions to the regular force
approximately 81, 000,0 900 has been au-
thorized for temporary clerk hire, and
about $500, 900 for temporary city let
ter carriers. These unusual financial
demands made 1t necessary for the
postmaster general to go to congress
in May for an emergency ~appropria-
ton of $500, 600, which was promptly
granted, and $500, 900 allotted for tenn
porary clerk hire and a like amount
for temporary carriers.
"On March s, 1913, there were about
1900 vacant postmasterships of the
presidential grade, and some 800 have
become vacant since. OF these more
than 1900 cases have been briefed and
about 1900 nominated to the senate.
Of the fourth class misunderstanding
which were found vacant on March 5.
including those which have become
vacant since, amounting to o $500,
more than LOO have been filled as the
result of civil service examinations or
inspectors reports, leaving at the
present time about 1000 Of the presi-
| Dental grade and some $500 Of the
fourth class to be disposed OF. These
are being dealt with expeditiously.
within the last sixty days 488 peti-
tons for rural delivery routes. have
been disposed of. resulting in the es-
tablishment of 2O3 routes, involving an
annual expenditure for maintenance Of
! approximately $3.50, 600. By the estab-
lishment of these new routes and the
extension Of old routes more than
200. 600 people are now receiving their
mail at their doors, instead Of at re-
mote poStoffices.
"In pursuance of the policy Of expe-
diting the delivery Of mail, the post
master general has ordered the discon-
%tinuance of the backstamping of all
ordinary mail which heretofore has
delayed it's delivery anywhere from
twenty minutes to one-half hour.
"The condition in the railway mail
service was found to be most urgent
where through mistaken ideas of
economy the clerical force had been SO
reduced as to affect efficient service
and car space cut down to a danger
point. With the advent of the parcel
post system on Jan. l, which increased
tremendously the volume of business
handled, additional clerks and increas-
ed car space were most imperative
But nothing was done to relieve this. II
being left to the new administration to
restore the efficiency of this important
branch of the service. Nine hundred
and ten additional clerks have been
added to the service since March 4
and increased car space costing $267.-
900 a year has been provided. Already
