"Judge w. w. Black, the Demo
cratic nominee, has reached to the
heart of the Japanese issue. as eXem-
plifed by Robert Bridges leasing of
land TO these Orientals and his dec
laration at Spokane that he believes
the people of the world should be al
lowed to go where they please
"The Democratic gubernatorial
ca ldidate points out that millions up
on millions of people in Asia are
eager to immigrate from that rich
but overpopulated continent to richer
America, where the population is very
much less dense and where living
standards and wages are higher.
"The judge says: IF allowed free
entrance to this Coast and nation,
they would come by the millions, new
boats would be bought and built 20
bring them. Orientals would flood
our farms, factories and schools
There would be new and dangerous
race problem
"This circumstance is perfectly
clear to the people of Seattle and the
state of Washington.
"'The bitterest foes to Oriental i'm
migration have been the farmers who
have experienced the economic COM
petition of land-easing Japanese,
and the labor unions which have
maintained that American standards
of living cannot be preserved if labor
is subjected to similar competition in
the cities.
an point of fact, the chief oppo-
sition to Japanese immigration has
come from the very elements which
Bridges is purporting to be represent
ing as candidate of the Farmer
Labor party. When he proposes
throwing open wide the gates to
Orientals, he is antagonizing the very
policies for which farmers and labor
in this state have stood most strong
ly.

Greenwich. Conn. Jan. 26.-Louis Lanz late confidential secretary to the town treasurer wronsfully used s192,00o of the towns fund, it was stated in court today. Lang was held in $50, 00o bail for the superior court.
 Accountants arc still at work on the books. Evidence is that Lang financed private enterprises with town money which will be sold for $350OO0. After the settlement is made Lang will have $1Oo.O00.
 The town books showed that Lang began drawing checks to his own benefit a year ago. The complaint alleges II counts of embezzlem ent and one of forgery, this latter being q chcl1 of s401. It was a duplicate check for the latter amount which led Town Treasurer Avery to ask the selectmen to look over the accounts.
 Counsel for Lang asked for d bond of S10,000 and that he should stay i'll the lookup for two or three days more. until the settlement had been made The court said the offense was Q. very serious one. and Prosecu- tor Walsh said that Assistant States 8 Attorney Garter had suggested the high figure.
