MUCH DEPENDS ON The old story
HOW IT IS SAID of the Oriental
potentate who put his grand minister
to death because he said to him, "Oh,
sire, you will live to see all your min
isters and court die and leave you,"
i
and who subsequently elevated the
court fool for saying, "Rejoice, oh
my master, for your, life shall be
long and happy and you will see new
generations arise to do you honor,"
seems to be quite closely parallelled
in the present "crisis" that is report
ed to exisit between Japan and the
United States. The lower house of
the California legislature has a bill
prohibiting "all those not eligible to
citizenship'' from holding land in the
state. The senate has a biTi, of ex
actly similar import, only instead of
providing that "those not eligible to
citizenship" cannot hold land, it sets
forth that only "citizens" may hold
land. Japan feels that the first bill
is a direct slap at her people as is
probably so but the second bill is ac
ceptable io her because there is no
phase of its wording upon which can
be hung a diplomatic objection even
though the bill has the same purpose
as the first.1 Japan realizes that the
United States has a perfect right to
legislate as she will in regard to her
citizens, but she objects to legislation
directed against those who ai not
citizens. It is a small thing, in the
finaj analysis, but possibly the point
is well taken. The moral of the whole
thing seems to be that it is wise to
consider carefully the language used
whether the wording figures in a
matter of international importance, or
in mere personal intercourse.
Cruel Styles of Women Are
Killing Off Many of Our
Beautiful Birds
By Mrs. MAY RILEY SMITH, Director of the Audubon
Society
IT has come to the point where women must forswear the use of
all feathers save those of the ostrich .IF THEY WOULD
, SAVE THE BIRDS. What they are wearing may have
been obtained without harm, but by wearing any wings they
PEEPETUATE THE FASHION. They aren't necessary, are
they ? If ribbons and flowers alone were style WE WOULDN'T
MISS THEM, would we?
STYLE, THAT'S WHAT DOES IT. IT IS FICTITIOUS, FLUCTUAT
ING AND ARTIFICIAL, BUT IT LURES WOMEN ON TO DO THINGS
THEY WOULD NOT SANCTION OTHERWISE.
Did we not always speak with contempt of "the savage with his
feathers?" Then what is this fashion. but an expression of the sur
viving savage instinct in woman ?
Men are justified in declaring women unprepared for taking the
reins of power in their hands since they are wanting in justice, in
tenderness, which has been their traditional attribute. -
CRUELTY IN WOMEN IS AN OFFENSE THE WORLD IS SLOW
TO PARDON.

BUTTER DROPS TO
301 AND 32 CENTS
The decline of 2 a pound in the
price of butter, forecasted Friday be
came general Saturday morning; all
creameries, city and country, quoting
the lower figures.
The new price in effect this morn
ing is 30 c a pound for cubes and
tubs and 32c for prints. Cartoons are
quoted at the usual premium- over
regularly wrapped butter.
The decline in quotations here still
places the local market above the
basis where California supplies can
be shipped to this territory, but the
differential is far lejss than" before
and there will be less inclination to
speculate in the southern product.
Prices here are in line with those
quoted on Puget Sound, the latter
market having dropped several days
ago.
Los Angeles berries have entered
the local market for the first time
this season. Stock arrived overripe
and therefore could not compete With
the finer Louisiana offering. How
ever, berry business is quiet on ac
count of the cool weather.
On account of the Jewish holidays
next week there has been a very lib
eral demand for fat hens in the whole
sale trade. Stocks were inadequate
to fill the wants and higher prices
have again been forced.
