Again the Jap Problem

with its own domestic concerns in the way
that seems TO it best, California in Tues
days election voted overwhelming in favor
of the referendum measure restricting the
right of aliens TO lease OF hold real prop
erty in that State. The condition which
brought about the submission TO the voters
OF this measure was the menace to the we'll
being or the State occasioned by the in
crcasing acquisition OF landed property by
the japanese population. the title 10 many
of these holdings being vested in nonrrsi-
dent aliens Of that race. Already. there
is Il considerable Japanese population in
The state, which is steadily increasing. and
as this condition initiates against the gen
cral well-being OF the Anglo-Saxon popula-
ton, the Californians are determined TO
end il.
Under existing treaty engagements. tho
United States has been seriously handi-
capped by the attitude OF California in its
EFFORTS to maintain the cordial relations with

For some time past the State Department
has been conducting negotiations with the

Spirit of Virginia Press

Tho state Corporation Commission having
announced that the request of the railroads for
further increase in rates hay and grain
hauled for feeding stock in transit will be
granted unless convinced by those who will
have the increase to pay" that It should not
be done. the Northampton Times rises to say:
There is well defined theory current TO the
effect that the ultimate consumer may always
he considered at his end of any increases, and
IL is probably he who will be asked to take
care OF the item here proposed. Such being tho
case, VIII the Corporation Commission hear
him. II 80. the Times assumes TO say for him
he wants no more increases, especially whore
none arc justifed. And this is a case In
point"
Tho spirit of the Virginia Democratic
press in the hour OF defeat is the spirit of
Tho people and Just now II Is interesting to
note 1t. The Roanoke Times, the morning
after" had this, among other things to say:
The principles OF good sportsmanship dictate
that the result should be accepted with tolerant
good htA"or BY winners and ioserp alike. After
all the government has not been and will
never be permanently entrusted to the keeping
ct either political party. There will come an
other campaign and another election, and such

Familiar Fnccs Pass

\ a result of the Republican landslide
in Tuesdays voting, several familiar
Democratic faces in both houses of Con-
gress will be missing after the 4th OF
next March. Chief among these familiar
figures in the House is Champ Clark, OF
Missouri, former Speaker and present
democratic leader, who was defeated in
the district which he has represented con-
tinuously for q quarter OF Il century by
T w. IIukeride. his Republican opponent,
by majority of something like 5000. His
career as member OF that body has been
outstanding in the distinction to which he
attained as q legislator Of real ability and
presiding officer of such recognized fair
ness and knowledge OF parliamentary pro-
cednre that he holds the record among
Speakers for the fewest number of appeals
from his rulings. During his long service
as Speaker there were only lfty-four APP
peals from his decisions, and on these he
was sustained in all but two. His loss
will be severely felt by the shrunken Demo
cratic minority, for 1t is without a recog-
nized resourceful leader to take his place.
Another Democratic veteran OF the lower
House who fell by the wayside was John w.
Raihcy, of Illinois, whose service in that
body has been OF incstimabe value, both
to the country and TO the party.
In the Senate several Democrats OF long
service and recognized usefulness drop out.
notably. John d.. Phelan, OF California;
John Walter Smith. of Maryland. and James
f. Nugent of Idaho. Likewise, as a re-
suit OF Democratic primaries, confirmed by
Tuesdays elections, Hoke Smith, T.. y. Gore
William T.. Kirby, OF Arkansas, and other
lesser party lights, are retired to private
life, the successors in the case Of Okla
homa and Arizona being Republicans.
incidentally, the solid Democratic dele
cation of Texas, maintained in the lower
House for more than quarter OF 4 cen
tury, has been broken by the election Of Il
Republican from the San Antonio District
to succeed Carlos Bee, a kinsman OF Post
master General Burleson. But even with
IT.: reduced membership in both houses, the
Democratic minority has Il duty TO per-
form, and if it goes about il in the right
way, may accomplish the defeat of much
legislation likely to be proposed by cX
tremists on the other side and be a help
full factor in the shaping of measures de-
signed in the public interest.
