OTHER BILLS VOTED DOWN , Honse Provides Separate School, but President Says Bill Is Uncon stitutional Battle on Re consideration Sure. ISSl'E AI'I-KAILS AT SAJJEM. I STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or.. Feb. 4. (Special.) An anti-Jap res- J olution baa appeared In the Senate. In a memorial to Congress. Senator Bailey urges that the present chines exclusion laws be not abrogated in I favor of general laws, as la being I advocated. Bailey asks that the I present exclusion laws be broadened so as to Include all Asiatics, which 7 would embrace Japanese and the I Hindus now flooding th pacinc Coast. J ' (Continued From First Page.) changed his vote from aye to no In order that he might give notice of re consideration. Following is the full text of the separata school bill: Text of School Bill. Section 1. 6eotlon 1R62 of the political "code is hereby amended :o as to read a follows: Section 162 Everr school, unless other wise provided bv law. must be open for the admission of all children between s.x and 21 years of age residing- in the district, and the board of school trustees or City Hoard of Bducntlon have power to admit adults and children not residing in the dis trict, whenever good reasons exist there for. Trustees shall have the power to ex clude children of fllthv or vicious habits, or children suffering from contagious or Infectious diseases, and also to establish separate schools for Indian children and for children of Mongolian or Japanese or Chinese descent. When such separate schools are established. Indian. Chinese. Japanese or Mongolian children must not be admitted Into any other school; pro vided that. In cities and towns in which the kindergarten has been adopted or may hereafter be adopted as part of the public primary schools, children may be admitted to such kindergarten classes at the age of four years; and provided further, that In cities or school districts In which separate schools have ben or may hereafter be es tablished, for the Irstructlon of the denf. children may be admitted to such classes at the age of three years. Johnson's Segregation Bill. Johnson's other measure, the vote on which is to be reconsidered, is in full as follows : Section 1 Whenever In the opinion of the governing body of any municipality the presence of undesirable. Improper and un healthy persons, or the presence of per sons whose practices are dangeruus to pub lic morals and health and peace is deeiued to exist In the said municipality and to be dangerous to the puhll: morats and health and peace of said municipality and Its Inhabitants, the said governing body is hereby empowered to declare by ordinance the district limits within which said persons shall reside in said municipality, and there after it shall bo unlawful for any person of the class so declared to reside In any other portion of said murlcipaiity than within the said district and limits so fixed. Section 2 A violation ct the provisions of this act shall be deemed a misdemeanor and shall be punished as such. Argument for Segregation. The principal debate was upon the residential segregation bllL Many who voted against the land corporation measurej announced that they favored segregation of undesirable aliens, be cause that was effective anti-Japanese legislation. Beardslee of Stockton, Trantue, Hanlon. Kech and Cattell of Los Angeles spoke against, taking the ground that It was unconstitutional and would interfere with the friendly negotiations of the Federal Govern ment with Japan to stop Immigration. Shortly after the disposal of the Johnson bills Drew moved that the vote by which his land bill was defeat ed yesterday be reconsidered. He of fered to amend the measure by striking out a section which, it had been de clared, violated the treaty rights of several nations. He declared that, as the school bill had just been passed, and that was the one to which the President objected most strenuously two years ago. the Assembly should go a step farther and pass the land bill also. The motion was lost, the vote being 36 ayes and 38 noes. This showed a gain of ten votes for the proponents of the bill. Asks House to Reconsider. Governor Gillett Is preparing tonight a message to be sent to the Assembly to morrow, asking that body to reconsider the vote by which It passed the bill com pelling Japanese children to attend sep arate schools. This action is the result of a message received from the President todav appealing to him to devise some means of blocking the measure in the Legislature. COXSTKRXATIOV AT CAPITAL Iloosevelt Sends Protest Senators Approve of Separate Scliools. "WASHINGTON". Feb. 4. News of the passage by the California Assembly to day of the bill providing for the segre gation of Japanese school children was received in official quarters here with surprise and consternation. President Roosevelt Immediately sent to Governor Glllett a telegram in which he described the bill as "the most offensive bill of all" and clear'.y unconstitutional. The Governor's telegraphic reply to the Pres ident was not made public tonight. The President indicates clearly in his telegram to Mr. Gillett that he had not changed in his attitude of two years ago, when he declared in his annual message to Congress, submitted just be fore the visit of the San Francisco del egation, that "to shut them (the Japan ese) out from the common schools Is a wicked absurdity, when there are no first-class colleges In the land, including the universities and colleges of Califor nia, which do not gladly welcome Jap anese students and on which Japanese students do not reflect credit." "We have as much to learn," said the President at that time, "from Japan as Japan has to learn from us, and no na tion is tit to teach unless it is also will ing to learn." Senator Perkins, of California, asserted his belief tonight that the right should be given to -school authorities of the state to provide separate schools for Japanese. Said he: "The people of California, in their at tempt to secure regulation of Japanese attendance in their schools, do not de sire to do anything that will disrupt general treaty policies with Japan. The question as to whether Japanese should tie admitted to the schools and universi ties of the state shouia be left In my opinion, to the school boards and the regents of the universities and colleges. In the case of the higher schools and universities. I do not think there has been or would be In the future any ob jection to having Japanese students. In the lower schools, however, the objection has been that there were often Japanese children much older than the American children and the former often kept back the latter because they knew little Eng lish and had to be taught slowly. The people of California are all right on the question. The right to provide separate schools for Japanese, as well as for other Asiatics, should be given to the In dividual school authorities of the state as a police provision." Senator Flint said he was surprised to learn of the passage of the bill. He re fused to discuss the possibility of Its passage In the upper house of the Legis lature. He said his views on the school question were similar to those expressed by Senator Perkins. CXWTLIilXG TO GO TO COREA Japanese Doubt Whether Emigrants Can Be Kept From America. TOKIO. Feb. , (Special.) Not a few local newspapers today comment un favorably upon the speech of Count Ko mura. Japanese Foreign Minister, de livered before the lower house of the Diet It Is doubted whether emigrants who would otherwise go to America can be attracted to Corea. The Kokumln Shlmbun, indorsese Komura for dis couraging the troublesome business of sending away uninvited guests and points out that such an exodus would increase the cost of labor in Japan. The Kokumln Shimbun, however, rejoices that the im perial government has decided to notify the various powers next year of the ter mination of the existing commercial treaties and to negotiate new treaties, "unhampered by any unequal engage ments." "Although." said a member of the gov ernment today, "Japans policy Is one of waiting, but nevertheless is constructive, inspired by the need of developing its resources for' definite progress. Treaty revision on the basis of stricter reci procity In conjunction with the consolida tion of peace is likely to mark a now struggle for International development In the Far East." In reference to California's rejection of the bill prohibiting aliens from owning land, it is believed here that Japan Is prepared to abolish its similar prohibition In connection with proper treaty revision. WIXIj SMOTHER RESOLUTION'S Xevada Senate Finds Grave for Anti-Jap Movement. CARSON. Nev.. Feb. 4. The Giffen anti-Japanese resolution, shorn of Its ref erence to President Roosevelt, came up In the Senate today and was referred to the Judiciary committee.

Government at Same Time Ships War Munitions to Philippines and Hawaii. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4. The close of the present week will see an un usual amout of war material and sup plies shipped from this jiort to the Philippines and the Hawaiian Islands, which fact, taken In connection with the arrival of the naval transport Buf falo from Honolulu today painted leaden gray, the color that is asso ciated in the popular mind with the fighting garb of the American Navy, and the unexpected return of the tor pedo flotilla from the South, is caus ing some local comment. Tomorrow the bark Mohican will clear for Honolulu, riding deep In the water under the weight of two great disappearing guns destined to form a part of the defenses at Pearl Harbor, the site of the new naval station in the Hawaiian Islands. Saturday the Pacific Mall liner Asia sails for Manila and Japan, carrying 3500 tons of car go, 2000 tons of which consist of farm ing machinery for the Philippines. In cluded in this shipment are 200 sub marine mines, which are to be placed beneath the waters of Sublg Bay, and 2500 cases of small arms ammunition. The Army transport Sheridan also leaves for Honolulu tomorrow, laden with three tons of general supplies for the troops in the islands. In connection with the change made In the color of the Buffalo, it is stated that orders have gone that the Pacific fleet be similarly altered In appear ance on its return to Magdalena Bay from the South American cruise. This is the first time that the color of the ships has been changed except in time of war. While admitting that there is unus ual activity Just at present in Pacific naval circles, officers of the Navy pro fess to be unable to explain It. METAL HCHMCEIS FAKE COMPOSED OF THREE MEX WHO MAKE NEGOTIATIONS. Hughes' Committee learns That Xew York Prices Are Based on London Dealings. NEW YORK, Feb. 4. The committee appointed by Governor Hughes to in vestigate the exchanges in New York looked Into the affairs of the Metal Ex change today. Horace White, chair man of the committee, said: "We discovered that there Is really no such thing as the New York Metal Exchange. Three men composing a committee put up certain quotations on copper daily, which figures appear to be as near as possible to actual trans actions. That appears to be all there Is to the Metal Exchange. "A. great amount of business Is done daily in copper in London. The quota tions posted on the New York Metal Exchange are largely based on London transactions. A number of metal deal ers pay about $50 a year for the sup port of this New York Metal Exchange, and for that they have the privilege of walking in and out of the place and looking at the quotations."

One of the logs scaled 10.500 feet, while another scaled 10,600 feet. NEWLANDS SAYS LET NATION ACT Would Exclude Brown and Black Races From Ming ling With Whites. JAPAN COULD NOT FIGHT Nevada Senator Opposes State Action Against Japanese, but Would Let Congress Legislate on Question. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. Senator Nixon today received replies to the telegrams he sent yesterday to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the Hduse of the Nevada Legislature. From the tenor of the Senate reply, Mr. Nixon feels confident the resolution passed by the Nevada Assembly "urging the Cali fornia Legislature to pass anti-Japanese legislation will not be passed by the Senate. He believes it will be smothered in committee or all matter likely to offend the Japanese government will be stricken out. A letter was sent today to Governor Dickenson, of Nevada, by Senator New lands, as the result of his Interview yes terday with President Roosevelt regard ing the resolution passed by tne Nevada House of Representatives. The letter follows: Advice From Xewlands. ( "With a view to moderating any action tending to create friction between Japan and this country, I take the liberty of suggesting to the Legislature, through you, a plan of action which, while in dicating a solicitude for friendship and amity with Japan, will mark clearly our purpose to maintain this country as the home of the white race, free from such racial competition and antagonism on our own soil as will surely breed domestic violence and international hatred. "'Entertaining no prejudice against any of the foreign races and particularly ad miring the vigor, courage and patriotism of the people of Japan, and disposed to advance rather than to thwart her ca reer of national greatness, we of the West are yet profoundly Impressed with the view that the United States, possessing a vast territory as yet undeveloped and capable of supporting, many times our present population, with natural resources unrivaled anywhere, with climates adapt ed to every people, will, with the cheap ening of transportation, draw to itself surplus population of all peoples. Races Will Xot Mingle. "Nature has classified the peoples of the world mainly under three colors, the white, the black and the brown. Con fronting us on the east lies Europe, with a total population of about 300,000,000 whlto people. We are finding it difficult to assimilate the white immigrants from that continent and have been obliged carefully to restrict such immigration. We have drifted into a condition regard ing the black race which constitutes the great problem and peril of the future. Confronting our Pacific Coast lies Asia, with nearly 1,000.000,000 people of the brown race, who, if there were no re striction, would quickly settle upon and take possession of our entire coast and intermountain region. "History teaches that it Is Impossible to make a homogeneous people by the juxtaposition of races differing in color on the same soil. "Race tolerance, under such condition, means race amalgamation, and that is undesirable. Race Interference means, ultimately, race war and mutual destruc tion or the reduction of one of the races to servitude. The admission of a race of a different color, in a condition of in dustrial servitude, is foreign to our in stitutions, which demand equal rights to all within our jurisdiction. The compunc tion of such a race would involve Indus trial disturbance and hostility requiring the use of a large armed force to main tain peace and order, with the probability that the nation representing the race pro tected would never be satisfied that the means employed were adequate. The presence of the Chinese, who are patient and submissive, would not create as many complaints as the presence of the Jap anese, whose strong and virile qualities would constitute an additional factor of difficulty. Our friendship, therefore, with Japan, for whose territorial and race In tegrity the American people have stood in active sympathy in all her struggles, de mand that this friendship should not be put to the test by bringing two such pow erful races of such differing views and standards into industrial competition on the same soil. How to Prevent Mixture. "This can be prevented, either by inter national treaty or by National law regu lating, restricting or preventing immi gration. International negotiation and treaty is, in my Judgment, an unsatisfac tory method. It requires a nation, with which we have treaty relations, to pre vent Its own people going where they will, a restriction which we would never in any treaty apply to our own people. We would, therefore, be asking other nations to put a restriction on the movements of their people which we would refuse to prescribe regarding our own. Let' Each Nation Restrict. "There is but one consistent position to assume, and that is to relegate the whole question to domestic legislation In each country, permitting each to make such laws regarding the regula tion, restriction or prevention of im migration as it sees fit. The time has come, in my judgment, when the United States, as a matter of self-protection and self-preservation, must de clare by statutory enactment that it will not tolerate further race compli cations. Our country should by law, to take effect after the expiration of existing treaties, prevent the immi gration Into this country of all peo ples other than those of the white race, except under restricted condi tions relating to international com merce, travel and education; and it should start Immediately on the seri ous consideration of a National policy regarding the people of the brown race now within our boundaries, which, with a proper regard for humanity, will min imize the dangers to our institutions and our civilization. Japan Could Xot Object. "Japan cannot justly take offense at such action. She would be the first to take such action against the white race, were it necessary to maintain the in tegrity of her race and her institutions. She is at liberty to pursue such a course. Suoh action constitutes no charge of in feriority against the race excluded; it may be a confession of Inferiority In ability to cope economically with the excluded race. It involves no insult, or the possibility of war, for Japan could not possibly sustain a war, even were her finances in better condition than they now are, without the sympathy of the world as to the Justness of her cause.

"I am opposed to sporadic legislation here and there by the various states, intended to meet only certain phases of what constitutes a National peril phases which will necessarily be cov ered by broad legislation. I am op posed to terms of opprobrium and of in sult. Japan deserves from us only re spect and admiration; we deserve from her a proper regard for the integrity of our race and institutions. A temper ate declaration made, at this time by the Legislatures of the Western States on the lines indicated here will aid much to advance the enlightened, calm and forceful presentation of this ques tion in such a manner as shall convince the judgment of the world, Including that of Japan herself. "Thus, upon the expiration of the present treaty with Japan, and without attendant attacks upon Japanese sensi bilities, public opinion will be so shaped as to force a calm and rational solution of the question by purely domestic and National legislation."

There probably never was a baby that did not kick off the covers and take cold; in fact, babies are particularly susceptible to colds and croup, and the favor ite remedy for these ailments is Chamber lain's Cough Eemedy. It always gives quick relief and is pleasant and eafe to take, in fact, it contains nothing injurious. Mothers have become acquainted with this fact and do not hesitate to give it to their babies when such a preparation is required. Mrs. John D. Harmon, of Melfa Station, Va., savs: "About two weeks ago our biby had a dreadful cold, and at one time I feared it would have pneumonia, but one of our neighbors told how Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy had cured her little boy, and I be gan giving it to our baby at once and it soon cured her. I had tried other remedies and they all failed to do her any good. Our baby is now well and we heartily thank Chamberlain's Cough Eemedy, for it cured her. I cannot recommend it too highly or ! say too much in its favor. I hope all who I swsrl this will trv it and ha convinced as I Was." ft a "sf fs s?l 3? elifsfif fcryj.i-fctsinTwirtAiiTir' Tart I " IT COATEjf t. ; . 41 i v. . v a t
