JAPAN VS.. UNITED STATES.

All talk about war between Japan
and the United States over the Cali
fornia legislative matter, (the alien
land law having been signed by the
governor is out Of reason and pre-
posterous, and the differences that
have arisen will undoubtedly be salts
facto1ily adjusted through diplomatic
channels. The protest of the Japanese
government it is understood to assert !:
That the alien land law of the state
of California violates the treaty of
1911 between the imperial government
of Japan and the United States.
The law in question is discrimina-
ton against the citizens of Japan by
reason of the aforementioned conven-
tion of 1911.
The law is offensive to the dignity
of the imperial government of Japan
and contrary to the traditional spirit
and friendliness of his majest7's
government with the United States.
To which the reply of the United
States is said to be:
The California land law does not
violate the Japanese American treaty
of 1911. It's avowed intention was
and is to preclude such violation.
There is no discrimination against
the citizens of Japan in the California
alien land law which has not, if it
exists, remedy in the courts of the
United States.
The question of offense as between
nations is one for settlement and ad-
justment; the United States govern
ment in this spirit and according to
international usage, invites such
settlement by diplomatic negotiations
Any action taken by the state de-
partment and Japan under the third
proposition would not be effective
without the consent of the senate.

"'MY LITTLE SISTER"

The way in which Elizabeth Robins
came to write her startlingly tragic
story, My Little Sister. " the founda.
ton Ia fact which it has, and the
frequency with which similar disap-
pearances Of young girls occur. are
sold by Mr.. Harriet Burton Laidlaw
IN the May magazine number of The
Survey. She says:
Now as to the truth of this
tremendous story. I suppose that
having put the very soul of truth
and reality into the narrative its. If,
having written it from the very
depths of her own plying heart,
the author has not reckoned with the
ca}lOus incredulity which the book
often meets, or she might we'll have
added an Introductory note in regard
to the actual facts in this case from
real life.
The story. she told me subsequent
90 it's publication, was absolutely true,
but much softened at many points.
In the true story, for instance, the
mother is not dead, but is in a state
of dementia on the continent whittier
the family have moved, being unable
80 endure England and its memories.
TO satisfy herself that the story
was susceptible of extensive applica-
-5ion, Miss Robins took it to several
London police inspectors. No one for
Enoment stopped to doubt or ques-
ton the facts. The most horrible
stories that the human mind can con
,ceive are old stories to them. When
the home secretary was asked ques-
76ion on this subject in the house of
commons only few weeks ago, he
answered that in London city alone,

reported fifty three girls lost and

CONVICT LETTER
KEEPS POLITICS
AT WHITE HEAT
Warden Clancy Resigns And
Backs Up StiIwell Who Says
SuIzer Tempered With APP
pIication For Pardon

New York, Oct. 29.-The letter of a
convict in sing Sing, as given out yes
terday by William Sulzer, deposed
Governor and present candidate for
the State Assembly on the Progressive
ticket, was again today the axis about
which revolved the heated controversy
of personality and -invective incident
to New York's mayoraIty campaign.
From his cell in Sing, Sing ex-State
Senator Stephen J. Sti1wel1 repudiated
the correctness of his written applica-
ton for a, pardon made public by
Sulzer. Part of it, he said, had been
f'taInpered WITH and in this he was
backed up by James M. Clancy, war
den of the prison. Standing by Still
well but denying that he was attempt
ing to shield Tammany, Clancy
promptly wrote out his resignation
and sent it to the State Department of
Prisons.
AS given out, sti1well's letter was an
application for a pardon in return for
an exposure of "boss rule in New
York city. Speaking last night in
Brooklyn, John A. Hennessy, cam
paigner against Tamnnany, told of
conference with StiIwell in prison, of
Stilwell's boast that he could put
Murphy in JAIL and could intimidate
certain legislators and swing them into
line for Sulzer at the impeachment
proceedings. However, according to
Hennessy, Stilwell demanded his par
don first, and no terms could be agreed
upon. The fact that Hennessy even
outlined what took place between them
was credited today as having brought
about Warden Clancys resignation.
John B. Riley, State Superintendent of
Prisons, was quoted here today fol-
lows:
''Mr- Clancy told me Monday that
the statements made by StilweI to
Hennessy were made with the distinct
understand and agreement that
they should not be used under any
conditions. until Stilweu was pardoned.
It was agreed that Mr.. Hennessy
should be at liberty to use Sti1we1l's
statement when the pardon had been
granted, and not before.
Warden Clancy told me that he
would resign if Hennessy should break
his agreeme emit with sti1wel1.''

Emmett's esDixie Land was written
in 1859, and was first heard at a per-
fernance of Bryant's Ministries in New
York. One Saturday evening Emmett
was asked to composed "hooray song,
to be ready for the Monday perform
ance- From the first Dixie" was
success. The keynote was love and
longing for the Southland. and upon
the outbreak of the civil war Dixie"
became the favorite air of the gray
clad soldiers.
During the conflict between the
North and South the name of Dixie
was the popular designation for the
States of the Confederacy. Like the
song, the name efs'Dixie" was OF
northern origin. early in the nine
tenth century a man named Dizzy was
the owner of a large tract of land on
Afanhattan Island, and OF many slaves
In New York public sentiment was
against slavery, and Dizzy, to escape
censure, or perhaps because of a ben
eVe4ent spirit, treated his blacks with
the utmost consideration. They were
well fed and housed, and the labor i'm
posed upon them was of the nghtest
character. D4xys slaves lived life of
pleasure and great was the constern-
alton among them when their master
decided to sell them to southern plant
ers In the South they had to work
much harder, and they naturally long
ed, with a great longing that found
expression in simple, pathetic songs,
for the happy, care-free days at Dixy's.
The original Dixie Land was not the
South, as popularity supposed, but
Manhattan Island To the expatriated
and homesick negroes, Manhattan Is
land in general and Dixy's in partic-
ular became synonymous with an
earthly paradise Gradually this sig
nif1cance was lost, and Dixie was ap-
Piled to the South It was so under
stood when Emmett's song was first
sung in a theatre in New York, and
probably none of those presents nor
the author himself knew that Gotham
was the real, original Dixie land
