propaganda to bring hordes Of Oriental
laborers into the United States Re-
ports OF shortage at present are de-
MED, and in case the situation becomes
acute it would seem much better to
bring men from other countries where
they can be spared than to have this
country overrun by cheap Asiatic la
Dor. The Chinese Six Companies of
San Francisco are very busy at this
time and with the assistance OF lobby
at Washington will leave no stone I'M
turned to have the Chinese Exclusion
Act set aside. Labor unions would
not oppose movement to import white
men who would be only temporary
residents during the stress imposed by
war conditions, but they recognize the
underlying motive in the presentmove.
The proposition to admit 100000 Ori-
entail laborers into the San Joaquin
Valley alone is enough to set people
all along this coast to thinking out
loud.

Ouch ! This kind of
rough talk will be heard less here

will follow the simple advice of this
Cincinnati authority, who claims that
few drops of a drug called freez-

corn or hardened callus stops sore
ness at once, and soon the corn or
callus dries up and lifts right off
without pain.
He says freezone dries immediately
and never inflames Or even irritates
the surrounding skin. A small bot
tie of freezone will cost very little
at any drug store, but will positively
remove every hard or soft corn OF
callus from ones feet. Millions oil
American women will welcome thi:
announcement since the Inauguration

RICHARD BURKE is
GIVEN A PAROLE

Richard Burke, the young Indian
convicted about two years ago of man
slaughter in connection with the death
of Ed Kirkpatrick, prominent reser-
vation farmer, has been paroled by
the state parole board, according to
a letter received this morning from
Governor Withycombe by Raley &
Raley, who acted as attorneys for
him. His parole dates from January
~ and it is expected that Burke will
arrive home soon.
The case was a hard fought one in
the circuit court. Burke had driven
white woman and a white girl out
to the Kirkpatrick place where a
dance was in progress. Burke him
self, did not go in but Mrs. clifford,
the woman, did and is said to have
been elected. Kirkpatrick followed
her to the buggy and in an alteration
with the Indian boy there. was shot in
the leg. He died sometime later
from the wound.
The Indian youth, who is a son of
Poker Jim, was given an indetermi-
nate sentence of from one to Is years
in the penitentiary.

GUY HAYES GETS THE
MAXIMUM SENTENCE
Beating Up witness While Out On
Bonds Last Night Fails 70 Mitigate
Decision OF Judge.

Beating up one Of the states wit.
nesses against him did not help Guy
Hayes when he came into circuit court
this morning to be sentenced on the
statutory charge OF which he was con.
vitced yesterday afternoon. Judge
Phelps took the matter into consider
alton and the sentence Hayes drew
was six months to two years in the
penltentiary
Hayes was cut on bonds last night
and proceeded to have one last eele-
bratIon. He secured a jug Of Chinese
wine, became intoxicated and, accord.
ing to the police, proceeded TO assaul;
one of the Bushman boys who had
testified against him during the day,
Officer Nash arrested him ana lock-
ed him up in the city jail.
At 10 this morning he was taken
before Judge Phelps Asked as to
whether he had anything to say, he
requested new trial on the grounds
that all of his witnesses had not
shown up. Inasmueh as he had ad-
mitted certain Of the facts stated in
the indictment, Judge Phelps declar.
ed he was unable to see why a new
trial should be granted. In sentencing
him, he reminded him of his many
previous escapades on the reservation
and also of his behavior last night In
assaulting a witness, Such conduct,
he said. could not be tolerated. The
law permitted any one of three SEN
tenees, a term in the county Jail OF
three months to year. a fine of from
5000 to $1,000 or term in the peni-
tentiary from six months to two years.
In imposing the last alternative, Judge
Phelps declared the maximum would
probably be more severa than the
circumstances warrant but expressed
the belief that the prisoner would be
paroled after serving part of his sen.
tence.
The jury that found Hayes guilty
