WASHINGTON, ID. c., April %
Counsel for former Governor j. c.
Walton, of Oklahoma, in a brief filed
with the United States supreme
court, announced that they enter
tanned faint hope" on favorable &C
ton by the court upon the appeal in
which the former governor sought a
review of his impeachment by the
Oklahoma legislature.
When the case was called for ar
gument, counsel for the former gov
ernor was granted further time in
which to file a brief, the court re-
fusing, after having advanced the
case at the request of the former
governor, to postpone it's considera-
ton.
The brief which has just reached
the high court covers substantially
the same grounds for appealing to the
federal courts as were given in the
brief filed when the appeal was dock
eted. 1t alleged conspiracy on the
part of the ku klux Khan to get him
out of office after he had declared
martial law in his fight against that
organization. In closing the brief,
counsel said that with great re-
spect" for the supreme court, they
had submitted the case for final de-
cision with faint hopes" of success.
Difficult to Pronounce
Picked at random from today's list
of appointments to commissions in
the officers reserve corps at the war
department, appear the following
names:
Harold Simmelkjaer, Johann Cissna,
Adrien Ferdinand lie Tarte, Thor
Wangberg, Robert Goeltz, Abraham
Lazarus Kushner, Simplicimo Var
gas, Carl Kapka, William O'Leary,
Solomon Goldstein, Carl Lohr and
Heber SotZin.
These fellows think they are Amer
leans; perhaps they are by adoption,
but the point is that they are COM
missioned to enter the great citizens
army of this country and will fight
the next war if it comes. This list
of names smacks of almost every ma
tionality in the world.
Is it any wonder the Khan and 9TH
ers are fighting for restricted immi-
grafton laws?
First Division Monument
First division men (the Rainbow
division) Of the American army that
went overseas is interested in know
ing that the 35-foot marble shaft of
that division has been raised in posi-
sition on its base just south Of the
state, war and navy building in
Washington. 1t is going to be q mag
nificent monument when 1t is fin
ished.
A solid piece of marble, IS feet
long and weighing Sc tons, 10 said to
be the largest block Of stone ever
taken out of an American quarry.
Private Daniel Edwards will unveil
the monument on October 4 Of this
year. Edwards was selected a. the
First divisions outstanding hero. He
lost his right arm and the use Of his
left leg in overseas fighting. His
last exploit was to 60 AWOL from
his hospital to join the division in
the scissors offensive.
President Coolidge will have Q part
in the dedication Of the shaft.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April o.
If you want to know just how the
people of the Pacific coast feel about
the immigration bill and the Japan
csc exclusion clause, read the follow
ing editorial from The Seattle Star:
"At last, it seems, the white man
is to have chance in his native land.
Both the United States house of rep
resentatives and the senate have in
no uncertain terms called Japan's
bluff. The immigration bill, with the
Japanese exclusion clause, has gained
the appreciation of both houses of
congress, in spite of Jap threats and
traitorous pro-Jap action on the part
of some Americans who pose as
statesmen.
"For years The Seattle Star, almost
single handed, has been fighting for
just that thing. Barring of oriental
immigration marks victory.
There 10 no doubt concerning the
danger Of Unrestricted japanese i'm
migration. There is no question Of
the Mitsui chicanery, rs evidenced in
the Standard Aircraft cases. These
things being as they are, Just why did
q lot of newspapers betray the white
race? Failure to take mp and fight
the white mans battle for ownership
of his native land was just that.
I'VE have Q most excellent exam
pie Of 1t right here In Seattle"

COOLIDGE FACES HARD
KNOT IN ALIEN BILL
EndeavOring to Please Congress
and Church Faction and
Secretary Hughes
(Bureau Of Publication and Education)


WASHINGTON, d. c., April 90
President Coolidge is squirming to
beat the band on the immigration bill
on account of the japanese exclusion
clause, and he is seeking a respite of
so days in which to try to find a
way out Of the perplexing situation.
1t is reported on pretty good au-
thority that the president has about
decided not to accept the bill as it
is with the Japanese exclusion legis-
lation part of it. He also knows
that the present bill passed both
houses of congress by overwhelming
majorities, and it begins to look like
test of strength between the exec
utiveI and legislative branches of
government.
President Coolidge no doubt wants
to do the right thing, but he is con-
fronted on one hand by the insist
ence of Secretary of State Hughes
and subjected to enormous pressure
being exerted by the organized
church interests of the country that
some method be found to soothe ia
pans wounded pride. In this man
ner, Secretary of State Hughes is
hopeful of hitting upon a solution
of the question that will satisfy the
exclusionists in congress and at the
same time apply a poultice to Japan
csc feeling. Whether it can be &C
complished or not is extremely prob
lematical.
As originally drawn, the house bill
would make japanese exclusion eff
fective July l, when the present i'm
migration law expires. Smarting
under the sting of Ambassador Hani-
hara's grave consequences" letter,
the senate passed bill making ex-
clusion effective Immediately.
The two bills are now in confer
ence. President Coolidge has asked
and probably will obtain an agree
ment on the July date fixed by the
house for the exclusion clause to take
effect.
