None in the Canebrakes.
STARTS AFTER BEAR TODAY

Slayer Is With the Party.
STAMBOUL, La.. Oct. . The President
pent the day quietly In his camp on Ten
sas Bayou with the Intention of beginning
his hunt early tomorrow. This report Is
not official, but comes through natives
who are keeping as close an eye upon the
movements of the Chief Executive as the
courtesies will permit. At 5 o'clock As
sistant Secretary Latta, who Is located
about 10 miles from the camp, reported to
the Press representatives here that he has
not received a word from his chief since
he landed In camp, but added that he was
certain that he had not attended church.
Residents who heard this statement con
firmed It because there Is, they say, no
church for him to attend.
There is quite a canvas village where
the camp is pitched. It consists of seven
tents, most of which are occupied as liv
ing apartments by the President and his
party. The President's own tent Is a
walled structure about 15 feet square and
there Is a large mess tent and a cooking
tent, floored. The President has been
lupplled with a big bay horse by Manager
Bhlelds of the Parker plantation, but will
not use him when on the hunt, trained
ponies being supplied for this purpose.
The hunting force of the party has been
reinfdrced by the addition of Ben LJlley,
a professional sportsman, who migrated
from this section to Texas many years
ago, but who even then made so excel
lent a reputation as a nimrod that It has
survived all this time, and was strong
enough to cause him to be sent for and
brought all the way from Texas for the
emergency. He has In former days
hunted all the canebrake hereabouts and
Is said to know every nook and cranny
In them. The people hereabouts express
confidence that some of the bears will be
bagged and there are more assurances on
the subject of venison. They say the
woods are full of Virginia deer, but the
disquieting rumor has gone abroad that
many of them are dying of the disease
known as "black tongue."
The party will be augmented tomorrow
by the addition of a Mr. Metcalf. a friend
of Messrs. Mcllhenny and Parker, who
will escort the negro bear-killer Holt Col
lier, . who will bring with him 21 of his
dogs. There will be therefore three pro
fessional hunters In the crowd Collier,
Ltlley and a negro named Brutus Jack
son. All have their own dogs.
MAN HUNT IS FRUITLESS
(Continued from First Pago )
united no other race had such enlightened
and patriotic thouphta and motives. It
gave ua the Declaration of Independence,
our Constitution and form of government,
with it" foundation laid deep In the hearta
Of a true, loyal and loving people. It
voa the net result and the net product of
th combined experiences, patriotism,
thought and intelligence of the world's his
tory. It had its trials and BtrugKles; con
flicts and dark cloudu of war. Shot and
shell have sought to destroy the unity and
have threatened Its very existence, yet It is
again harmoniously united with the same
burning fires of patriotism that aroused the
martial spirit of our fathers In 177(1-
Must Protect American Unity.
The time has come in the history of this
Nation when strong measures should he
taken to protect and preserve this American
unity. No matter how pure may be their
Intentions, how honest their motives, or how
loyal may b their thoughts, no foreign born
citizen, after one year's residence in this
Nation, can have the same love, the same
loyalty or the same patriotic zeal and de
votion to the American flag, as a true born
American citlsen ha.
No other naturalization laws are so lib
eral and broad, and there Is no other na
tion In which a foreigner has the same
rights and privileges aa in the United States.
More foreign born citliens are being
naturalized under the laws of the United
States than under the laws of all other
nations combined.
Of what binding force and effect la the
oath of a man to support the Constitution
of the United States that knows absolutely
nothing about the Constitution or of the his
tory of the country? How can he be well
disposed to the good order and happiness
of the country when he knows nothing of
It Constitution or form of government ?
How can a man be well disposed towards,
or in sympathy with, our American form of
government when he cannot read and has
not read, as it la printed in the English
language, the "Constitution of the United
Ftates. or the declaration of Independence?
How can a man be a good American citizen
without any knowledge of the duties of the
American citizen? It is the duty of every
American citizen to stand for law and order.
How can he do this when he does not know
what is meant by law and order? And
what are his duties as a citizen of this gov
ernment? Irelgners Too Easily Naturalized.
The naturalization of foreigners has been,
made matter of form and not of sub
stance. The creation of a citizen by law
ahould be a aolemn proceeding, and one
that ahould thoroughly Impress upon the ap
plicant bis relations and duties to the gov
ernment. He should produce clear and ton
vlnotnr proofs that he liart read the Con
stitution and the Declaration of Indepen
dence In the KnglMh UiriKUHKc and Is ra
snlliar with their fundamental principles.
How long shall we continue our present
policy, no matter what may be our prin
ciples or form of government? Have not
the objects nnd purposes of our Natton in
this particular been more than accom
plished? Is there not a serious danger that
the spirit, sentiment and motives of our
fathers when they wrought out and estab
lished our unity as an American race and
as an American nation, shall lose their
primitive strength, beauty and patriotism?.
By no means would I seek to cast reflec
tions upon any citizen of foreign birth who
Is well disposed towards our principles and
form of government; and to all foreigners
who come, broathing the spirit of our in
atl tut ions, and who are loyal and patriotic
to the rvollcy and teachings of our Govern
ment, I would throw the doors wide open
and bid them welcome. But there Is an
element who do not have the true, proper,
or any conception of the spirit of our in
stitutions, and who are not fit or worthy to
be or become American citizens; that are
not bound by any oath of allegiance; that
re opposed to law and order and all forms
of government through false and pernicious
teaching, have sought and are seeking to
strike a deadly and fatal blow to tha very
spirit of our American institutions.
American Freedom Abused.
Under our boasted right of free speech
no person should be allowed to make an
assault upon the integrity and principles of
the government in which he lives and which
he has sworn to uphold and defend. The
great masses of the people of this country,
whether native or foreign born, are honest
and patriotic, and sincerely believe in
American Institutions and American form
of government, but the seeds of anarchy
have been sown, and the time has come
when to preserve and protect the principles
and unity of the American race and the
American Nation nnd tnt nrt person ;iouM
become a naturalized citizen of the United
States until such time as he can read and
comprehend the Constitution of the United
states and the Declaration of Independence,
snd haa proven by his life and conduct that
he is a living example of the spirit of our
Institutions.
Why snould out naturalisation laws o
liberal in both theory and practice; why
should they not be far more rigid and ex
acting, where all citizens have the same
rights and are alike protected in their life,
liberty and property, and where every citi
zen has an equal voice in the selection of
those who govern and in the affairs of
government?
Our boasted right of free speech is in
directly responsible, and. in my Judgment,
should be held responsible for every blow
that has been struck and every shot that
haa been fired by the cowardly assassin. To
my mind, he who by circular, pamphlet,
book, magazine or newspaper shall publish,
or In a public place shall utter thoughts
or sentiments Inciting individuals against
law and order and to deeds of anarchy,
cmmus vn a higher crime thn the cow
ardly assassin who strikes the blow or fires
the shot. Under what constitutional rlRht
of free speech has a person to utter
thoughts and sentiments whose sole object
and purpose Is to overthrow and destroy
the principles of the government which he
Is sworn to uphold and defend? Can It
be said that hy virtue of our liberty and
freedom as American citizens that any man
has the right to be a traitor to his coun
try? Can any man use liberty and freedom
as a shield and as a constitutional right
to protect him in an assault on our Amer
ican form of government? v
The spirit and teachings of anarchy were
never born In this country. They are not
a product of our government. They are
foreign to Its principles and the spirit of
our institutions. They came across the
waters. They were bora and bred under
a despotic form of government and had
their inception In a spirit of hatred and
revenge. The seed has been sown in Amer
ican soil by a claps of people who are
unworthy to enjoy the liberty and freedom
of our form of government, who have no
conception of the rights and duties of an
American citizen. They have no patriotism;
they have no love of country; they have
no national pride. Such men, those who
are In sympathy with such men and who
uphold and defend them, ought not to en
joy the rights and PrivllegeB of an American
citizen. The land or the free and the home
of the brave must not become the home
of the traitor and the assasin.
The American people believe In law and
order and are slow to anger, but there is
a limit, and this anarchistic speech and
these cowardly assantnartlons and murders
must be stopped, and if they cannot be
stopped with due process of law. they will
oe stopped without due process of law.
UNllsllTI!liGES
AXTI-SEMITIC FEELIXG AC-UNSTIRRED
UP.
Jewish Tearooms Ransacked and
Jew s Seriously Beaten Police
Disperse Mob Xo Arrests.
ODESSA, Oct. 6. Despite the precau
tionary measures taken by Governor-General
Novitski, the unionists today, after
the funeral of M. Dalfinsky, assistant
chief of the secret police, who was killed
In an attempt to break up an anarchist
meeting several days ago, renewed their
anti-Semitic outrages.
Several Jewish tearooms were ran
sacked and numerous Jews were brutally
beaten, it being necessary to send 18 to
the hospitals. The police dispersed the
mob but made no arrests. Extreme nerv
ousness is felt by the Jews and the streets
have been practically deserted by them.
As an Indication of the methods em
ployed by the mob to catch unwary Jews,
the correspondent of the Associated Press
while on his way to file this dispatch,
was stopped In a dark street by six
unionists, each wearing a different uni
form. Subsequently the correspondent
was permitted to proceed, one of the men
remarking, "We are not anarchists and
only beat Jews and revolutionists."
SOOX TO RELEASE M'LEAX.
Raisuli Wants $ 1 CO, 000 and Prom
ise of Protection by England.
TANGIER, Oct. 6. The release of
Caid Sir Harry McLean, who for some
time has been held captive by the
Bandit Raisuli, at last seems to be
within measurable distance. The As
sociated Press was informed today on
responsible authority of the accept
ance by the British go ernment of
Raisuli's terms for McLean's release,
the principal items being 1150,000 ran
som and British protection for Raisuli
and his family. Great Britain's ad
vance of the ransom will be guaran
teed by Sultan Abdel Aziz.
Sir Harry McLean's brother Is now at
Rabat, bringing the negotiations with
the Sultan to a close.

CHEHALIS, Wash., Oct. 6. (Special.)
H. W. Stuchell and William Murphy,
well-known sawmill men of Everett,
have purchased C. O. Gingrich's half
interest In the Wlnlock Lumber Com
pany, of Winlock, for $300,000. Murphy
and Stuchell owned the other half be

UNCLE SI HAS
CAUSE TD WORRY
Japanese Pouring Over Border
in Such .Vast Numbers, as
to Create Alarm.
INSPECTORS GETTING BUSY
Forces Along Canadian Line Will
Be Increased in Effort to Check
' Incoming Flood of Asiatics.
Keeping Eye on Mexico.
WASHINGTON, Oct e. Immigration
of Japanese into America is increasing
at so alarming a rate that it has been
determined to adopt extraordinary
measures to prevent the introduction
Into the United States not only of Jap
anese, but of other Asiatic coolie labor.
One result of the trip of Secretary
Straus has been an increase in the force
of immigration inspectors along the
Canadian border, with a view to con
trolling the flood of Asiatic immigra
tion. It is known that more than double
the number of Japanese have come into
the United States thus far in the year
1907 than came here during the same
period last year. Naturally, the figures
of the Government do not include the
hundreds of Japanese who have come
into the country surreptitiously. They
have come across from the Canadian
and Mexican borders, principally with
out hindrance, despite the means adopt
ed by the Government to prevent the
introduction of Japanese laborers.
Pouring Over the Border.
For many months the Government
has had immigration commissioners in
Mexico and Canada. In practically
every instance, the inspectors have re
ported that the Japanese who reach
Canada or Mexico are bound for the
United States. Inquiries in the Ha
waiian Islands have revealed organiza
tions whose business it is to procure
Japanese laborers to work in the
United States. They not only provide
the means, but pave the way by which
Japanese may easily obtain entrance
to this country through Mexico and
Canada.
It is this sort of position that the
Government proposes to combat. In
the appointment of what principally
constitutes a patrol guard of the
Northern and Southern borders of the
country. Secretary Straus hopes to re
duce the number of Asiatics who dally
are coming across the borders in great
and Increasing numbers.
Hope to Enter United States.
Returns from the Canadian immigra
tion offices show that 8286 Asiatics
landed at the British Columbia ports
of Victoria and Vancouver between
January 1 and September 18, 1907. Of
this number, 2872 were Hindus and
4811 Japanese, most of - the latter
reaching Canada from Honolulu. The
remaining were Chinese, who paid ad
mission fees of J100 for the privilege
of landing In Canada. The field of
labor In that section of Canada is lim
ited, and the investigations of the
United States Immigration Inspectors
have shown that most of the Japanese
and Chinese expect ultimately to get
into the United States.
STUDIES JAPANESE QUESTION
Abbe Felix Kline, of France, Makes
Visit to Western Coast.
CHICAGO, Oct. 6. Abbe Felix Kline,
one of the prominent members of the
clerical element in France, who is
making .a study of American social and
economic conditions, has returned from
an extensive tour of the West. Speaking-
of his observations Abbe Kline
said:
"I was much impressed while on the
Pacific Coast with the anti-Japanese
feeling existing at Vancouver and
throughout British Columbia, which is
far more Intense than the feeling on
the American side of the border. At
San Francisco the anti-Japanese ele
ment is comparatively small and one
hears little of the active agitation
against the Japanese. On the other
hand, I visited Vancouver shortly after
the anti-Japanese riots, meeting the
Japanese Consul and going through the
Japanese quarters. Everywhere there
was evidence of hostile intention. The
people have taken up the shibboleth of
Canada for the Canadians, and they
feel that the exclusion of the yellow
race is essential for their self-preservation.
They are very determined in
this feeling and are pressing their
view on the civil authorities at Ottawa
and London.
"Before coming to America I shared
the views of a considerable element in
France and throughout Europe that
the Japanese question might lead the
United States into war, but personal
observation throughout the Middle
West and Far West has completely
changed my views. The people of the
West are not thinking of such a thing,
and scout the very idea of war. Even
in San Francisco, which is supposed in
Europe to be the center of anti-Japanese
hostility, there ws much less feel
ing than I found to exist in the British
colonies to the north. It is quite evi
dent also in witnessing the splendid
development of the Pacific Coast, that
a war would be little short of criminal,
alike disastrous to Japan and the Uni
ted States, neither of whom has any
thing to gain by such a recourse to bar
barism. This branch of the Japanese
question is really of much importance
to the United States, as Japan can
hardly expect more from the United
States than she expects of Canada,
where the opposition to the Japanese
is far more acute."
Speaking of people in the West, Abbe
Kline says that he was struck by the
fact that they look upon the East as
a sort of foreign country, much as the
people of the Atlantic States look upon
Europe. They are making great
strides forward, principally in the re
gion about Puget Sound, which, in the
judgment of this foreign observer. Is
to be a field of America's greatest
future development.

HILL YARD PEOPLE WTLIi NOT
HOUSE STRIKEBREAKERS.
Thoroughly In Sympathy With Strik
ing Boilermakers' and Do All In
Their Power to Aid Them.
SPOKANE. Wash., Oct 8. People in
Hlllyard are so much in sympathy with
the striking boilermakers of the
Great Northern that it was said today
that lodging-houses would not furnish
rooms or board to strikebreakers and
the merchants would not sell them
goods. The only strikebreaker who has
ventured to go on the streets of the
town. It is said by sympathizers, was
one who left the stockade Saturday
to find a boarding-house more to his
liking. He went to several boarding
houses, but as notice of his identity
had preceded him, at - every place
where he Inquired he was denied hos
pitality. It is claimed by the boiler
makers who watched the movements
of the strikebreaker, that after finding
that he could not get room and board
outside of the stockade lie quit the
town and made his way westward.
Following the ousting of half a dozen
guards and detectives from one of the
boarding-houses in Hlllyard on Satur
day, all the other hostelries in the
town have closed their doors to every
one connected with the strike in op
position to the boilermakers, the pro
prietors declaring that the guards and
detectives as well as the instructor sent
along with the strikebreakers will
either have to sleep and eat in the
corral or find food and shelter in Spo
kane. All the stores in Hlllyard are alleged
to have joined in the boycott against
the strikebreakers, guards and detec
tives. Tobacco, as well as the edibles
consumed within the stockade, is pur
chased in Spokane.
OPERATORS STICK TO KEYS
Leased Wire Men Expected to Dis
obey Strike Order in New York.
NEW YORK. Oct 6. (Special.) De
velopments today in the telegraphers'
strike indicated that few if any of
the leased wire operators will obey
the order Issued by the local union
last Saturday to quit their posts
Wednesday at noon. There is also
little probability the strike will ex
tend to the railroad operators.
At the strikers' meeting this after
noon. S. J. Small, national president
declared that neither he nor any other
national officer would approve the
breaking of any contracts, but the local
union again voted to order out all the
men now working.: Conservative
strikers tonight agreed that few if
any of the men working leased wires
would obey the order.
Mr. Small returned today from Wash
ington, where it was said he formulated
a plan for arbitration with the aid of
Federal officials, but he declined to
make any statement except to say he
believed the programme would termi
nate the strike within a week for the
strikers.
LOST HEIRESS IS FOUND
Maybelle Kelley, Who Has $60,000
Coming, Located In Seattle.
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 6. (Special.)
Maybelle Kelley, reported by Mrs. Clara
Dexter, who lives on Taylor street, in
Portland, to be heiress to a fortune of $60,
000 left by her uncle, Charles H. Neuman,
is in Seattle. Mrs. Dexter had asked the
Seattle police to find the girl and she ap
peared today to announce her where
abouts. She has been here a year, resid
ing at the Rosshlre. a boarding house at
Sixth avenue and Marlon street.
Mies Kelley says her uncle was for
merly a diamond broker of Paris, who re
tired twenty years ago and came to this
country. She traveled with him for sev
eral yeare but a year ago came to Seat
tle. Miss Kelley today telegraphed to
an aunt at Colorado Springs for partic
ulars. . .
A careful examination of the city and
telephone directories falls to give the ad
dress of the Mrs. Dexter mentioned in
this dispatch from Seattle.
FRANCIS FOR PRESIDENT
(Continued from First Page.)
I have Just made through the Middle
West at the extent of the tariff re
vision sentiment." says Mr. Wakeman.
"I believe in telling the truth and so
I do not hesitate to say that this is
a fact. While in Chicago, St, Louis,
Cleveland and Pittsburg I talked with
40 or 60 prominent business men and
found them favorable to revision. I
must admit too, that reports received
by our organization indicate that the
sentiment is general throughout the
country.
"I confess that these reports and
my interviews surprised me. Perhaps
the sentiment is due to our abundant
prosperity. I will say further that if
this sentiment continues the present
administration will control the next
Republican convention and name its
legatee.
"I believe President Roosevelt wants
the nomination, and under present
conditions will get it but there are
grave doubts in my mind whether con- !
dltions will be the same. The conven
tion is nearly a year away. There may
be such a change by February as to
make the naming of its legatee by the
administration impossible."

USING CONVICT LABOR
WALLA WALLA PENITEXTIARY
BEIXG EXLARGED.
Hospital Building and Sally Port
Constructed at Great Saving to
the State by Inmates.
OL.TMPIA. Waah.. Oct. 6. (Special.)
At the Walla Walla Penitentiary two of
the most substantial buildings in the
state are being constructed by convict
labor. One is a hospital building'; a two
story steel and brick structure with con
crete foundations. This building Is to
take the place of the present small hos
pital and also to provide a section for
the housing of criminal insane. The pre
sent small hospital building will be
turned Into a woman's ward for the ex
clusive use of the women convicts. Tha
hospital building Is located at the east
side and inside of the prison walls.
The other new building is the Sally
Port and dormitory being built outside
of the walls. In the past there was a
small building for this purpose! at the"
main entrance of the prison yard but the
accommodations In the way of sleeping
quarters were so meager there and In the
institution that many of the .civil em
ployes of the penitentiary were forced to
secure lodgings down town, a mile from
the prison. This condition made It ex
tremely difficult to assemble the em
ployes in case of sudden need such aa
fire or-attempted escape. So the last
legislature made provision for a new
building."
Plans for both of these structures were
drawn by Architect John K. Dow, of
Spokane, who Is superintending their
construction. The Sally Port Is a three
story and basement building surmounted
by a tower. It has a concrete founda
tion, brick -walls faced with repressed
brick and considerable steel is being
used interiorly.
The building construction Is but a part
of the work being done by the convicts.
At Pateros, Okanogan County, 29 con

QUAKES BREAK THE CABLE
Volcanic Disturbances Cause Injury
to Sitka-Valdez; Wire.
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 6. (Special.) .
A story came from Sitka, Alaska, today
that the series of earthquake shocks felt
west of that town is really responsible
for the breaks in the Government cable
between Sitka and Valdez. A story from
Dutch Harbor several weeks ago gave
the first news of volcanic activities some
where to the westward, and stories have
come out of Alaska regularly since that
earthquake shocks and volcanic action
had been experienced.
No damage beyond frightening the na
tives was done until the cable was re
ported broken 300 miles from Valdez. The
theory Is advanced from Sitka that vol
canic activity na changed the contour
of the bottom of the eea along the 900
miles of cable between that town and
Valdez. The cable steamer Burnslde,
which Is out endeavoring to repair the
cable breaks, cannot be reached for a
report on the situation.
