Edmonton, Alia., April 17. Nine dollars and thirty-seven and a half cents per capita, estimating the pop ulation of the dominion at 8,000,000, or $75,000,000 a year, Is Canada's bill for intoxicating liquors?, accord ing to Rev. Thomas Powell, pastor of Grace Methodist church of Ed monton, who also said in a public statement that a similar amount is expended annually in caring for the effects of strong drink. Discussin the subject to emphasize the urgent need for a definite practical nation wide temperance movement, he said that, in accordance with the laws of political economy, a business is sup posed to meet some real need in the community; the public drinking place could not make such claim. "True it is," he added, "the saloon makes business, but It is chiefly for the po lice and the magistrate and the jail er; furthermore, to say nothing of the broken hearts and wrecked hopes, it keeps taxpayers busy pro viding funds for the detention and support of criminals." Giving Away a Country. Abdul Aziz was very eager to. ae cept Napoleon Ill's invitation to visit the exposition at Paris in 1867. But between his desire and its attain ment stood the law of the Koran, which he could neither disobey nor set aside. It is rare that a privilego enjoyed by the subjects of a country is denied to its ruler, yet by a law of the Koran the sultan may not leave his realm unless he goes sword in hand for the purpose of conquering new provinces. His ministers advised him to come to an amicable understanding with Napoleon, and after announcing that war had been declared upon France to journey to the exposition sword in hand. This scheme, howeyer, seemed of doubtful advisability, and finally a simpler plan was adopted, says Das Buch fur Alle. One day the morning papers of Constantinople contained the start line news that Napoleon III had made the sultan a present of France Abdul Aziz was, of course, at entire liberty to visit his new province and he decided to do so at once. Paris and France were greatly amused at the subterfuge that their guest had practiced and offered no objection to his approach. After a very pleasant visit to Paris Abdul Aziz returned to Turkey. But before he left he magnanimously gave France back to Napoleon III, Washington, April 17. That Cali fornia is absolutely determined upon exclusion of the Japanese, that Call fornians are set like steel for a white man's state and why they are so set, was explained here today by William Kent, congressman of Cali fornia, In a lengthy statement deal ing with conditions now agitating the Golden State. He said- "Chinese exclusion wa3 based on economic and social reasens. The economic reasons were fallacious. If the Chinese did our work without demoralizing our democracy,' there was no reason why he should not do it. But in working he kept out white labor and thus demoralized our social status. ' - "The same reasons were cited as objections to the Japanese. He was found to have a much lepe valuable economic quantity than the China man. He did not have the same ideals of commercial Integrity and his social attitude was more offen sive. "The exclusion laws undoubtedly would have been passed against the Japanese if their government had not entered into a treaty to provide against issuing passports to its la boring classes coming to America. "The practical effect of Japanese land tenure is shown by Japanese settlements in some of the most fer tile portions of California. The white people shun these sections This may and may not be due to the prejudice of white neighbors, but California, thus far, has been a white man's country and it is the inten tion of the people of California to keep it so. "It is a curious fact that the Jap anese persistently deny that, in their case, a race problem is involved and refuse to recognize this as a vital element in the whole contention. To a thoughtful student of the situation there can be no assumption of su periority as lying back of the racial question. We may admit, if we choose, that the Japanese are, in some particulars, our superiors. We cannot deny, however, that, taken racially, they are different from the white race. They cannot be assimi lated into our population. Introduc tion of permanently defined groups of non-assimilable population must necessarily create bitterness and mis understanding and hamper the devel opment of democracy. "The privileged classes in Califor nla the land owners and great em ployers of labor may clamor for this cheaper labor, but th9 vast ma jority of Californians look forward to a great state wherein similarity of population will make an enlight ened democracy possible." Some Cubist Verses. Since the new French school of Cubists, or Futurists,- is depicting everything in art as grotesquely cube-shaped, why not a school of Cubist poetry, something after the style of the following?

SUNSET MAGAZINE and Ashland Tidings one year f 2.75 to old or new subscribers. Regular price of Sunset Magazine Is fl.60 per yeat If Burns were living now and fol lowing a plow in the fields of Linn county, the chances for a poem like that beginning with "Oh, sleekit, cowerinlittle beestie" would be far from favorable. In certain portions of that county, so it is reported by John Wills, a farmer living near Albany, the field mice nuisance has beconi9 one of proportions that make it comparable to the grasshopper scourge that hit Kansas years ago, the chinch bug ravages in Minnesota and the boll weevil ruin wrought in the Texas cotton fields in recent years. .Mr. Wills says that in the Knox Butte Country east of Albany, in the Brownsville districtand elsewhere the little rodents within the last year or two have so multiplied and over run the country that in many cases clover, grass and grain crops have been all but ruined, and to many of the farmers who have suffered as a consequence of their ravages, the outlook is almoBt hopeless. Wills tells of one farmer who in plowing a field of 19 acres had his boys follow the plaw, and as. the share turned the nests to the surface the youngsters killed the rodents, The boys In that field, he says, killed over 2,000 mice, and even then made but a small dent in the ro lent popu lation of that field. The farmers, he says, for a time tried poisoning the mice, but the state game authorities soon discov ered that the China-pheasants of that district, which are protected by law, were dying by hundreds as a result of eating the poisoned bait set for the mice, and they at once put an end to this means of dealing wtih the rodents. Forbidden to poison the mice, and having no other means of reaching them, the farmers of that part of the state are facing a prob lem for which there appears to be no solution. Last year immense stretches of crass, clover and grain tieid were practically wasted by the mice, and this year, it is said, the prospect is for even greater destruction. MILL HAVE TO STARVE. If Scientists Keep on All Things Will Poison Us. If the scientists keep on there will soon be nothing left for man to do bue die, and then he will be a men ace to the living. That soda-water is poisonous is the latest fad. The Portland Telegram takes it off in the following: The dear young sweet thing who chortled that she "could just die drinking soda water" may do it yet if she keeps on. Drug store proprietors and bosses of those marble top fountains of fizzy waters are buried in melan choly over a brand neW swat which a bewhiskered scientific guy named "Doc" Lederle has just handed ou in an interview back east. Word of the sad blow has just fi'.tered into Portland and it begins to look as if it is back to the old style plain, un varnished, uncolored ice cream for the summer girl. The latest jolt from the realm of science Is that you mustn't drink anything that foams or froths or has suds on top of it. With one exception, and that what comes out of a keg and is made in Milwaukee, St. Louis and Olympla Wash. Namely, beer. - But soda water, that soft, cooing hissing, sputtering stuff i'nat cools the parched tongue and throat me're ly at the sound of its purling from the nozzle of the marble fount that stuff is poison. You mustn't touch it. There la death at least twice in every bubble that sizzles from the nozzle. - This highly suspicious savant is dubious about, everything that. car ries a "bead," save as aforesaid, the amber brew. "Life is getting to be risky these days," complained a soda water jug' gler. "Here we go to work and in vent a thousand new drinks a year with nice pretty colors with cherries fruit and all sorts of junk on the top to give the proper scenic effect and now some laboratory shark dis covers that summer girls mustn' touch the stuff. "Tell you what I'll do. I'll bet this talk about' foam, froth and suds being poison will be a big boost for business. I know a lot of girls who will drink the stuff just to see whether it will kill 'em. "Another, thing, I'll bet that wise guy of a professor is under salary to the breweries." A safety gas meter invented in Holland is said to prevent the pos sibility of asphyxiation and to Indi cate the loss of unconsumed gas by leakage or otherwise.
