sold at average of about one cent
per pound. Some difference from the
retail price of potatoes here.
It is coming to the place when
farmer will have to own his farm if
he expects to make Trego county his
home. In fact it is nearly there right
now. During the last week or two
we have talked with three or four
good farmers who have been renting
and have been thrown out of farm
land on account of sale, and who are
unable to find anything for rent just
now. Everything with any improve
ments on it is taken. It begins to
look like it will be necessary for some
of them to move further west and
buy cheap land or to take up govern
ment land.

SNOWFALL MAY DELAY
NAVAL BALLOOMISTS

Cochrane, Ont, Jan. 4.-Snow
fell today on the ice packed tracks
over which the three stranded
American naval balloonists are re-
turning by dog train to civilization,
Nine days out of Moose Factory,
where the aeronauts descended on
James Bay, the party's arrival at n
rail head may be delayed until next
week.
After following the Moose river
south, they could either swing off
down the Missinaibi for Mattice, or
follow the Abittbi to Cochrane
BY either route the aviators will
encounter formidable barriers in
the condition of the rivers whose
icy surface they ordinarily would
follow. The winter has been com
paratively open, with the result
that in many places the streams are
not frozen over thickly enough to
support the weight of men and
dogs. .....

STEPHENS LAUDs
ALIEN LAND ACT
IN CALIFORNIA
Says Law Stands "As a
Common BuIWark Against
the 0rientaIism of Our
Western Civilization"

Sacramento, Calf. Jan. An
his biennial message today to the
legislature Governor VIM. d,
stephens asserted that california
stands as common bulwark
against the orientalism of our west
ern civilization, and I have no
doubt that the people of the entire
Pacific slope feel as the people Of
California feel on this subject"
The governor referred to the
overwhelming vote given the anti
alien law at the November election
and expressed the hope that the
new statute would meet the land
problem developing within our
borders this past decade"
California has the unquestioned
right, the governor stated, to regu-
within its borders, and in the exer-
else of that right has resorted to
the anti-alien land law" The state
cannot, he said. prevent by legisla-
ton the admission of Japanese into
the United States, this being a
question for the federal govern
ment.
The governor made plea for
frugality and economy in the ad-
ministration of the states affairs,
and urged strengthening of the
criminal laws for the purpose Of
obtaining quick justice and elimi-
mating many of the laws delays.
The recent lynching in this state
of three men accused of the MUIR
der OF as many peace officers, who
sought to arrest them at Santa
Rosa was referred to as an exam
Pile Of ."the growing discomfort of
our people with the administration
Of criminal justice and their slack
ening faith in the executiveness of
our courts in dealing with crime
commission"
Legislation was recommended
for the fostering of hydro electric
development, the conservation Of
water for irrigation, care of oil re-
sources and the inter-related adj
vancement of agriculture and man
ufacture.
