CALIFORNIA LETTER.
Continued from Tribune of Dec 10Th

| Continued from Tribune Of Dec Goth J
Our first experience at ranching in
California was in 1905, when we in
vested in a partly improved place in
Calaveras County, in the foothills, about
40 miles east of the city Of Stockton
We were at that time decidedly in the
tenderfoot class, for we scarcely knew
Jack Rabbit from young Jackass,
which it strongly resembles. When
we purchased this place 1t was during
what we call the rainy season or winter
Everything was beautifully green, so
we saw its best We could not at the
time understand why the owners APP
peared so anxious to dispose Of the
place and at the price for which they
were willing to sell, but later on il was
made only TO plain TO us. There were
several acres planted to barley which
was up about inches high, beautifully
green; quite an orchard of young peach
trees, then in full bloom q small olive
orchard and considerable Of a garden
several head of horses and cows also
hogs and poultry, few hives of bees
and a good equipment of farm tools
In fact everything to go ahead with
! Put by the middle Of the summer we
discovered to our sorrow why the pre-
vious owners were so anxious to dis
pose of the place In the first place
our water supply diminished alarminRly
Our shallow well went back on us so
there was no water for irrigating any
thing. The soil soon baked as hard as
cement, our garden commenced Il
wither and die, what did not, the jack
rabbits devoured The barley made
only a short crop of hay feed. The
jack rabbits simply existed IN drovei
and ate everything within reach thai
had the color of green and, as my sor
once remarked, IF board was painted
! green some fool thing would come alonG
and devour it. The previous owner
! assured US that our hogs would readil!
) find their own keep if we just let then
Q run, so we proceeded to do so, for VI
had no feed for them. 1t was cas-
of root hog or die" and they concludes
not to die, for by this time our youni
peach orchard was laden with wha

concluded to sample the fruit With

THE TRIBUNE's GREAT GRIEF.

Sudden. tragic and appalling is tbs
grief which encirles the Tribune family
at this hour No life was more vitality
related to the publishers joys and hopes
than was the life OF his only grandchild,
Harriet Grace Jacobs
We write these lines with teartilled
eyes and aching heart. as we ponder
the unexpected closing Of her earthly
journey. 1t would have been hard to
lose her under any circumstances, 1t
is douby hard when she is snatched
away in the very hour of pure. sweet
hlossoming womanhood in such a shock
ing manner collision while enjoying
the youthful pleasure of coastng
But yesterday she was the animating
and commanding figure of the home,
the school, the church everywhere
To-day she is held by the silence and
majesty of a heart chilling death.
We can only bow submissivey before
Gods ordering of our human years and
await with patience the answer of
Eternal Love to our prayer Thy will
be done.
The accident happened shortly before
8 O'Clock on Monday evening of this
week, and at o'clock the following
morning Harriet breathed her last. at
the age of Is years, 2 months and 3
days
If The Tribune is late and lacking
this week, there is reasonable cause,
don't you Think Mr., Jacobs, be il I'M
derstood, is the assistant manager of
The Tribune and his wife our beloved
and only daughter.
Thanks, thanks Oh, il we could ex-
press in words our thanks to the hun
dreds of all ages who have come to US
in all conceivable ways with their help,
their expressions of sympathy, their
their weeping hearts. But this
we cannot do, so please accept the
simple words, "thank you .
IL is comfort, JOY, to live among
such friends 1t will serve us wei as
THAT something, provided by an ALI
wise Providence, to cheer us in our
wanderings through the valley Of grief

While we are still waiting fol, a
Shantung decision, this weeks
Siberian episode has left no basis
for doubt as to Japanese policy.
whatever compromise may be ar
rived at in the matter OF the Shan
tung Railroad. the world must here
after accept the fact that Japan
means to dominate Eastern Asia and
consolidate her position In Siberia
and Manchuris. The defiance which
Germany uttered in the second
Hague conference to all the aspira-
lions and ideals of che rest of the
world has been repeated by Uchida's
declaration made on Monday and by
the japanese action in Washington
in the present week.
While American attention is once
more fixed upon peaceful as con-
trasted with war-like circumstances

observers here and elsewhere have
instantly appreciated the fact thar
we have now to expect not one but
two wars in the Far East. For

Reed Attacks
Senate Action in
NeDberry Case
Declares the Resolution
Was "the Epitaph of
Decency."

Senator Reed. of Missouri,
brought the NewberTy case up IN
the Senate yesterday for the first
time since Senator Newberry won
his title to his seat. In one of the
most caustic speeches ever heard In
Congress, Senator Reed attacked the
Republican majority for voting to
seat Mr.SNewberry, while condemn
ing the expenditure of sls5.ooo in
his behalf.
The resolution seating Senator
Newberry was ''the epitaph of de-
cency," Reed declared.
'I unhesitatlngly say" Senator
Reed said. that in all the annals
of the legislative bodies that have
yer existed on the face of the
earth. there never has been so shame
less a resolution adopted. There is
not a man who voted for the res
olution who did not brand In red
letters across his political record
the word "dishonor."
1T is the most stupid piece OF
business that ever disgraced any
body of men. whether they were
pirates sailing the seas under a
black flag or digRified statesmen
seated in this body to protect a
great country
The pirate did not pretend to be
anything but a pirate. But here is a
distinguished body of men who SOL
emnly protest that a thing is wrong
and protest to high heaven that
their conscience Is outraged and
their souls are narrowed by tho
very thought of what has happened
and who then, having INDUCED in
that sanctimonious and hypocritical
recitation. proceed to ratify all that
was done.
What a miserable. idiotic tsing
II was, They stand htre declaring
the thing is infamous. that il Is
detrimental to the STATE, that II is
an insult to the Senate-therefore
we solemnly ratify and confirm it.
You say: This thing is black with
infamy; therefore, we will spread II
as mantle over the Senate cham
Der. You say: This office was
sold for money: therefore. he who
bought 1t shall be confirmed in his
title"

Urge That Unions
Be Incorporated
Senators Would Hold Them
Responsible, Same as
Employers.

Compulsory Incorporation of la.
Dor unions Is urged in a report on
the West Virginia mine war, SUBJ
mitted to the Senate by Senators
Phipps of Colorado. warren-of Wy
oming, and Sterling of South Da-
kota.
This Is needed. they said, so that
labor unions may be held RESPONSE
Bile for their acts in the same way
employers are.
The report does not take issue
with a report previously submitted
by Senator Kenyon of Iowa, but
expressed the view that Kenyon
perhaps stressed too greatly the
guilt OF the coal operators in the
West Virginia controversy. Kenyon
recomme mepded establishment of a
government tribunal to regulate in
dustrial disputes in the coal fields,
with public opinion to enforce it's
decrees.'
The Phipps- s-Warren-Sterling re.
port said that Kenyon's proposal
deserves closest attention of Con-
gress, but that there was doubt
IL any Improvement could be OBJ
tained SO long as Congress does
not require Incorporation of unions

Japs to Fight 2 Wars Soon
Acts Indicate Says Simonds
Policy of Nation Forecasts Rule in Eastern
Asia, Siberian Episode Repeating Ger
man Defiance, He Declares

the last hope OF saliva
tion by outside assistance. With
out attempting TO gainsay the fact
that Mr.. Hughes and the American
delegation have done the best they
could for China. In the circum-
stances. the fact remains that they
have not been able to free Chinese
soil from Japanese invaders. They
have equally failed to remove the
invader from Siberian soil.
American activity on behalf of
China and the present conference
was necessarily limiter since at no
time were the American people pre-
pared to take up arms to enforce
Chinese rights or challenge Japan
ese pretensions. The single hope
for a real Far Eastern settlemen Mt
lay. frst. In Japanese willingness
to accommodate her policies to
present day ideals and. second. to
British readiness TO exercise that
great influence which England pos
sesses over Japan TO promote such
transformation of Japanese poll
cies. In reality the thing which
had 10 be determined was whether
Japan was a liberal or Prussian
power. and Japan alone could sup
ply the answer.
Today as q consequence of the
Siberian episode, as a result OF
the policy pursued by Japan
throughout the conference here
the fact is unmistakable that the
militaristic and imperialistic ele-
ments In japan retain their control
and have determined to resist all
outside arguments and seek Japan
ese destiny on the mainland OF
Asia. This, OF course. means war
just as 'unmistakably as the Ger
man purpose to expand in Europe
led to the war OF 1914. In so far
as the Washington conference wat
designed to promote and procure G
condition Of suitable peace In the
Far East it has failed.
Conceirably the assassination OF
Tiara marked the point of change in
the Japanese policy. Certainly ne
Japanese course here differs radi.
