There. is some opposition on the
part of few Japanese, but we will go
along with our plans, despite the op-
position of the minority" he con-
tinued. Last year there we're objec-

but the committee went ahead with
the arrangements for lantern pa
rade, which proved to be success.
am positive that there is less opposi-
tion among the Japanese. this year
than in 1915.
when a meeting was called on
Monday evening nothing was done in
the matter because there was not O
quorum. This is the reason that no
action was taken, not because OF any
objection to the participation In the
carnival. The Japanese will surely do
their part in making the Carnival a
success.
"T. Onodera was appointed chair
man of the japanese lantern parade
by the Carnival committee; and he
will begin his plans at once. The
next meeting of the committee win be
held on Monday evening. and | am
sure they will plan something worth

that the governor has net showed

The editorial is not worthy Of con.

this morning when asked his op'nion
in regard to it, "for it is absolutely
untrue" The editorial said japanese
were not supporting the Carnival on
account of the attitude of the COVER
nor toward their race.
