Alaska Anti-Alien Fish Rill Vetoed.
Juneau, Alaska, May 2. Just be
fore the territorial legislature ad
journed at an early hour today, Gov
ernor Walter E. Clark vetoed the
anti-alien fish bill, directed at Japan
epe fishermen, which had been
passed by both houses unanimously.
Leaders of both houses held at
short conference with the governor
and then announced that no attempt
would be made to pass the bill over
the governor's veto, and Japanese
who are here In large numbers will
continue their operations along the
coast.
Governor Clark declined to com
ment on his action and refused to
say whether he had followed Instruc
fons from Washington In vetoing
the bill, but It Is reported that a
rapid interchange of messages be
tween the territorial capital and
Washington followed the passing of
the bill.
The legislature, which Is the first
in the territory, has been in session
since April 3.
Sydney, Australia, is planning to
build a model suburb for working
people.

JAPS REPORTED DRILLING.
Said to be Maintaining Military Or
ganizations in California.
Sacramento, Cal., May 1. Adju
tant General A. E. Forbes of the Cal
ifornia National Guard admitted to
day that he "had heard" that Japan
ese in the northern valleys of the
state had during the last year been
organizing militia companies, or at
least associations whose activities
embraced military drill.
"It was brought to my attention
only recently that at Florin two
Japanese companies were drilling
from time to time, that another com
pany had been formed in the Napa
valley and other sections," said Ad
jutant General Forbes. "It was a
little over a year ago that the Japan
ese generally in this section of the
state began organizing associations
whose interests and motives were
maintained behind great secrecy.
Ever since then information has been
coming to this office of Japanese
companies engaging in drill maneu
vers." The Japanese population of Florin
and vicinity is considerably more
than one thousand.
Cows Should Do the Keeping.
Why do bo many find but little
profit in dairying? Because they do
not go at it right. They have the
wrong kind of cows cows that they
have to keep, instead of the cows
keeping them. Too many keep cows
whose milk and cream only bring
$30, $40 or $50 a year each, instead
of $100 a year as she ought to.
Again, many do not take proper care
of their cows; they let them stand
out in the cold rains in which
event the cow gets even' with her
owner, for instead of using her food
for the manufacture of good rich
milk, she uses it for fuel with which
to make heat to warm her body, and
to evaporate the rain from her hide.
Too. many think that if they give
a cow a wad of stuff to eat they have
done their duty, regardless of wheth
er it had any milk-producing value
or not. Ed. T. Judd.
