Of the labor problem, he tald: "I am tok! there is a feeling among the working classes on the Pacific Coast against the admission of Japanese labor ers to thif country on account of their underbidding Americans in the labor mar ket. Let me say that It. Is my opinion this condition will not exist much longer. The Japanese are rising in the scale of life, and with the spread of intelligence the time Is not far distant when the work ers of Japan wilt demand as high a wage as those of America. Again. I bollevc the development of Corea and Manchuria will occupy the surplus labor of Japan ior.yoars to come, reducing the emigra tion of Japaneoti laborers to this coun try. "in fact we must make radical changes regarding the admUsalon of foreigners to the United States. Japan has taken too advanced a position among the people of the earth to permit the eclusion of her people for the mere reason they have brown skins. We must change our test for admission into this country so the bast will be the individual, not the na tion, and -it mupt apply to all impar tially." - THE WOMAN CAME BACK.

LICE NOT HURTING HOPS PLENTIFUL NOW, BUT CAN DO LITTLE INJURY. They Will Be Killed by Heat Before Crucial Period at End of Season. SALEM. June 25. (Special.) Though some . hopgrowers in this vicinity express alarm over the presence of large numbers of lice on the vines, the general opinion of the experienced growers is that present conditions do not Indicate danger of In jury. From every source the reports are that vermin are much more plentiful than usual at this time ot the year, and many take the early appearance of lice as a bad indication. Others, however, say that the early appearance of lice will ultimate ly prove beneficial, for the hot days of July and August will kill them off and leave the vines free Just before picking time, when the real damage Is done by lice. Then, again, it is said that the preva lence of vermin will Induce growers to spray thoroughly, and thus prevent the spread of the pests later in the season. "I am not in the least uneasy over the presence of vermin on the vines." said H. J. Ottcnheimer today. "I suppose they are as thick In my yards near Independ ence as they are In other yards. There are plenty of them, but I'll take care of them In due time. I always spray my hops, and never have suffered any dam age from the lice. There Is no danger whatever If a man will take care of his yard as he should." There Is no activity in the hop market here, either In ISOi's or In contracts for lG5"s. The holders of ISO hops are appar ently as firm holders as ever, and have faith in the old- assertion that the brew ers must have the hops before the 13(6 crop' can be marketed. . RICHARD'S TRIAL UP.
