AFFAIR MISUNDERSTOOD

HE SAYS THE PEOPLE OF THE EAST CANNOT APPRECIATE POSITION OF THE CALIFORNIA CITIZENS. tPublishers Press.J fiacramenio, CaL, Jan. 8. In the message of Governor Pardee to the California legislature concerning the Japanese school question, he said: "It Is safe to say that the president, when he penned the portion of his annual message at the opening of congress, In which he refers to the treatment of Japanese in San Francisco schools, was not aware of the condition on the coast, and especially in California. In common with people of the east, who have had no experience with the unassimiable of Japan and China, the president does not understand the racial differences between the Japanese and the Chinese and people of Caucasian blod. Coming In contact only with educated and intelligent Individuals, of these two races, the people jpf the eastern states do not undertan that, to permit the immigration pt only a small fraction of the whole umber of these people means the 'monopolizing by them of such pursuits is they may engage In. The monopolization would not mitigate the public pood, were the monopolizers capable "of being absorbed Into the body politic in this generation, or even the next, being integral parts of our cosmopolitan people. Unfortunately, neither the Japanese nor the Chinese appear to be capable of absorption and assimilation into the mass of our people. It is useless to expect that n people with such different racial characteristics and civilization can ever mix with our people and become absorbed into our body politic; they cannot become good American citizens and it is useless to attempt to make them such. Under the circumstances, It is not at all strange that there is an aversion to the mingling of the children of the two races. And, thereZore, California has decreed that, whenever it is so desired, the local school authorities may provide separate schools for Japanese schoolchildren, in which they shall be taught as Caucasian children are and by equally capable teachers. In th case of the Japanese, the separation was the most necessary, because so many of the Japanese who desire to attend our schools are so much older than the Caucasian children, with whom, on account of their deficient learning, the Japanese must be enclassed. It is not at all desirable that youths,- even Caucasian youth3 18' years old or more, should be associated in the schools with children of tender ages. The reason therefor 13 sufficiently explained by its mere statement. The laws of California require the separation of Japanese children from the Caucasian. The treaty, as I read it, does not require that the Japanese shall be put in classes with our children. To give them equally as good school facilities more than complies with the treaty. Therefore it would appear that San Francisco, in providing separate schools for the Japanese, Is adhering strictly within the letter and spirit of the laws of the state, and Is in no way in contrariety to the treaty with Japan. The state of California, a sovereign state of the United States of America, has no quarrel with the government of either Japan or China. On the contrary, California has the greatest respect for these two countries, and deprecates equally any indignities which may be put upon Americans in Japan or China, or upon Japanese or Chinese in this country. We realize thoroughly that it is only the irresponsible and vicious in China and Japan who insult and Injure American citizens; we know equally well, and we hope that the Japanese and Chinese governments also know that It Is only the irresponsible and vicious who In America insult and injure the subjects of these two great nations. But nevertheless, unless the courts of this country shall have declared that California has no right to do so. the state reserves to itself the right to provide and conduct under the law, state, national and treaty. Its schools In such manner as seems best to us. and this without the slightest disrespect toward the government cf the United States or the subjects lf any foreign nation." Murder and Suicide.

TO TRY LIGHTING BUSINESS

RUMORS OF NEGOTIATIONS FOR THE TERRE HAUTE PROPERTIES TO CONNECT CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST LINES. Terre Haute, Ind., Jan. 8. (Spl.) Recent moves on the financial checkerboard make it appear to local cap italists that Hugh J. McGowan, of In dianapolis, and his associates, together with the eastern interests they represent in Indiana, are gradually ! developing their plans for a consolidaj tion of various traction properties, t which heretofore have been operated by separate syndicates, j The deal, as explained by persons ; in a position to know what they are i talking about, involves a merger of j the syndicate lines out of Indianapo lis and the lines of northern Indiana and of southwestern Indiana. The j new lines said to be included are those ' of the Northern Indiana Railway com pany and those of the Stone-Webster crowd out of this city, together with the lines out of Evansville recently acquired by the Murdocks, of Lafay ette, and Henry Marshall. It is asserted, in fact, that the recent activity of the Murdocks in buying up interurban properties was wholly in the interest of those planning the big consolidation. Electric Lighting Project. Declaration is made that when the big merger is formed the syndicate will engage actively in the electric lighting business. This will be a new field of activity for the McGowan 2rowd. The United Gas Improvement company, of Philadelphia, which is the moneyed concern back of the McGowan traction companies, has for some time been considering the feasi bility of building up a lighting busi ness in this state. The gas plants in several' cities, notably Logansport, Wabash and Lafayette, were acquired and operated, but electric lighting has not been tried. The present plans, however, contemplate, according to in formation here, the lighting of Elkhart, South Bend, Goshen, Mishawaka, Laporte and Michigan City. TRIAL WAS POSTPONED Prosecutor Jessup Was Too Busy at Court House to Be Present at the City Hall. ) The trial of Nellie Moore, Anna Schwartz, George Busson and Fred King, all charged with . associating, was not heard in the city court yesterday, as Prosecutor Jessup was busily engaged with the Wayne county grand jury during the whole of the afternoon, and could not find time to leave his duties at the court house for those at the city building.

It was hinted about police court yesterday that Attorney Kelley would ask for a change of venue to the Wayne circuit court. NO ACTION WASf TAKEN Local Railroad Men Divided in Sentiment Regarding the La Follette Sixteen Hour Bill.

Neff of the Richmond division of the Pandhandle opposed the bill, claiming that it was unjust to the men themselves and would work to the advantage of none concerned. SentimenJ was divided concerning the matter, so no resolutions were adopted. TO MANAGE A NEW RINK Harrison Fry, a Former Richmond Boy, Is Doing Well With Roller Skate Business Out West.
