LAND BILLjS PASSED
California Legislature Enacts Anti
Alien Land Law Despite
Opposition.
Sacramento, Cal., May 3. The
alien land bill passed the house to
night and now goes to Governor
Johnson for his signature. Only
three 'votes were cast against the
measure in the lower house, one
democratic and two republican mem
bers' opposing the bill on its final
passage. The bill passed the senate
last night.
London, May 2. Scotland Yard
detectives arrested Edward Clayton
in connection with a suffragette plot
to burn all lumber yards in London.
The arrest was based on letters writ
ten to Clayton by Miss Annie Ken
ney, the militant suffragette, listing
lumber yards and describing the
moBt effective way of setting fire to
them with chemicals.
Clayton refused to comment on
the charges, but the police admitted
the evidence to be used against the
prisoner was found in the raid here
on suffragette headquarters.
Sydney C. Drew is under arrest
today on a charge of printing yes
terday's issue of the "Suffragette,"
the militant origan, ordered suspend
ed by the home office. Drew con
ducts a small printing shop.
Clayton, Miss Kenney and , others
arrested in the raid of suffragette
headquarters were arraigned today
in Bow street court and their appli
cations for separate trials denied.
In his opening statement, Crown
Prosecutor Bodkin read several let
ters he alleged Clayton wrote to Miss
Kenney. Some of these, he said,
were found at suffragette headquar
ters and others in Miss Kenney's
flat. One of the letters set forth
plans to burn several government
buildings in addition to the lumber
yards. , It included diagram and loca
tions, the hours watchmen were on
duty and other information. An
other suggested starting the fires
with torches soaked in benzine, ben-
sollne and alcohol.
During Prosecutor Bodkin's state
ment, "General" Mrs. Flora Drum
mond and Miss Kerr fell asleep in
the prisoners' dock.
After Prosecutor Bodkin had out
lined the crown's case the trial of
the suffragettes was continued to
.Monday. Drew and Miss Lennox
were released on bail. The others
were remanded to Holloway prison.
Drew was admitted to bail on his
promise never again to print the
Suffragette, the militants' official
mouthpiece. Miss Lennox was re
leased on the representations of her
. physicians, who asserted that her
health would be Jeopardized by in
carceratlon.
A bottle of nitroglycerine was
found today in the Piccadilly Circus
tube station, throwing passengers
into a panic. Suffragettes are sua
pected.
Sacramento, May 3. Secretary
Bryan concluded his mission to the
governor and legislature of Califor
nia this afternoon, gave his message
of farewell and began his return to
Washington, where he said he
thought at this juncture he would be
more useful.
To an open joint session of two
hours, attended by the governor, he
gave renewed assurances of the
friendly interebt and co-operative at
titude of the national administration
toward the peculiar problems of Cali
fornia. Transmitting the president's latest
criticism of the alien land act passed
last night by the senate, rehearsing
again the objections already made
public, in a reply, Senator Gates,
speaking for the state, said:
"This legislature appreciates the
honor that has been done to this
state by the interest shown in the
visit of the secretary of state. We
realize that his coming to co-operate
with us marks a new era in Ameri
can politics. It brings the federal
government into closer touch .with
individual states."
.Gates thanked the president and
assured him 'even if we may differ
with him, we do 1t with profoundest
respect for his opinions and those of
the secretary, and if we feel impelled
to depart from that advice, we do it
with respect for that advice."'
Bryan's address voiced the presi-

complete and well illustrated report
of the geology of the district by J.
S. Diller and H. B. Dutton. These
scientists left little to be done by
their successors save a few points of
detail. During the same year, under
date of May 22, a federal law re
served the territory of which Crater
lake is thefcenter as a national park,
having an area of 645 square kilo
meters. Finally, in 1908, a party of
topographers began a new survey of
the lake and the surrounding terri
tory, including the entire park.
Their work resulted in a publication
of a topographic sheet on : scale of
1 to 62,500, issued by the geological
survey in 1911. This map of rigor
ous exactitude was of great service to
us in our visit to Crater lake.
Here are some of the more impor
tant facts concerning the crater it
belf and the lake which it embraces:
The greatest diameter in an east and
west direction, measured from shore
to shore from the foot of T'.ie Watch
man to Redloud cliff, is about 8, 00
meters; the smallest diameter, fol
lowing a direction almost at right
angles to the above, from Pumice
point to Eagle point, is 6,800 meters.
The circumference is approximately
30 kilometers, although to make the
tour of the rim on foot would make
the actual distance 56 kilometers.
The water, shallow in the western
part, where an island of cinders and
scoria, Wizard island (2,114 meters
above sea level), rises 232 meters
above the surface of the lake, is else
where very deep, the bottom sloping
rapidly downward. The greatest
depth noted in the eastern part, op
posite Skull Head, is not less than
608 meters. This depth, which is
almost identical with the measure
ment of the highest point of the rim
Glacier peak, which rises 003 meters
above the surface of the lake, gives
a total depth of 1,211 meters for
this enormous crater. The bottom
of the crater is, therefore; 1,274 me
ters above sea level.

Washington, May 2. Following
the plea of former United States Sen
ator Watson of West Virginia that
congress cease its inquiry into the
conditions of the coal districts in
that state, Senator Kern of Indiana
announced today his determination
in the senate to demand that the
investigation be pushed to the limit.
Watson who is a coal mine owner,
telegraphed that the strike in the
Paint and Cabin creek districts is
over, and that further inquiry would
be futile. Senator Kern, in his
speech, declared:
"The strike is not the question.
Peonage is the question. Hunting
men across the hills like escaped
convicts and beasts is the question.
We are going to have an inquiry. I
propose to have it shown that when
the federal experts investigated con
ditions laBt year, whole pages of
their report were suppressed by the
Department of Commerce and Labor.

Leasing Clause Proves Joker in Alien
Land Bill.
Sacramento, Cal., May 3. Many
members of the California legislature
freely admitted today that the three
year leasing clause in the Webb anti
alien land bill is a "joker" and that
it kills much of the effect of the
measure.
Senator Boynton, who introduced
the amendment, said that there is a
question as to whether renewals
would be lawful, but admitted he has
no assurance that such renewals
couldnot be made.
Senator Anderson of Santa Ana
admitted that he voted for the bill
as amended because he is opposed
to antl-alien land legislation.
"I voted for the bill because it
Elves the Japanese opportunity to
use the lands," Anderson declared.
Senator Larkins, progressive, said
he accepted the amendment "because
Governor Johnson and other progres
sives assure me that it was the best
bill that could be secured at this
time." He said he objected to the
amendment, however.
Senator Curtin, democrat, assert
ed that the amendment practically
killed the effect of the bill.

Medford Sun: The Junior club,
consisting principally of Medford
high school students, were defeated
Saturday by the Ashland high school
in baseball 5 to 0. The club was at
a disadvantage on account of the
sickness of Robert Pelouze and the
absence of Carl Martin, both of
whom are good men, and because
they played upon an unfamiliar dia
mond.
Ashland has a strong team, but
the Medford boys are confident of
beating them at the next game. Ash.

home run.

Would Io What He Could.
The legislature of a western state
contains this year Beveral women
members. At a recent banquet they
everywhere as unbroken cliffs, mak
ing it almost impossible for one to
get a foothold. However, one may
reach the water's edge quite easily
by following a zigzag path which
leads from Crater Lake Lodge to
Eagle cove, where tourists may find
during the summer season a small
gasoline launch and several row
boats. The greater portion of the steep
slopes of the crater is bare rock
showing varying colors of rose and
gray; there is very little debris ex
cepting to the northeast, where the
peaks are highest. Andesite, asso
elated with tufas and breccias, is the
dominant rock, and forms a great
number of successive, regular and
parallel strata whose inclination
away from the crater is slight though
well marked. Above, in places, we
find a massive light colored rock,
dacite, which is broken into vertical
prisms whose lines of separation
from the underlying rock are very
definite. This dacite forms, notably
on the north, the abrupt wall of Llae
rock, the mass of Rugged crest and
the summit of Redcloud cliff. Some
great vertical dikes, the Devil's Back
bone, not far from Glacier peak, de
scend to the water's edge. Finally,
a certain number of basaltic cones
are found scattered over the exterior
slopes of the volcano. The lava
flows found on the somber pyramid
of Wizard island are also of ande-site.
A last feature which completes the
physiognomy of the crater is the
abrupt way in which the many small
divergent notches have been cut in
the rim of the crater, such as the
two canyons to the southeast which
Isolate massive Dutton cliff. It is
very evident that at the time these
passages were hollowed out there ex
isted above a large mass of material
and a living force water or ice
which today has disappeared.
This enormous caldera may be
favorably compared with the most
important craters of volcanic origin
known on the surface of the globe.
Crater lake, a veritable suhaerial
counterpart of the great Grecian vol
canic island of Santorin, has the ad
cantage over the Grecian volcano in
that the continuity of the rim is ab
solutely perfect, its form and outline
much more regular and its propor
tions in the vertical sense are almost
double, as least so far as the sub
merged portion is concerned. Wiz
ard island, we may suppose, plays
were invited to speak, but all with
one accord began to make excuses, ' the same role in the interior of Cra.-
influence of another eruption, a pus
tule (Wizard island), almost insig
nificant in comparison with the vol
ume of the cavity from whose depths
it arose, was formed. The phenom
enon which resembles the great pit
ted craters of the moon seems to be
of recent date, so fresh is the lava
and so symmetrical is the cinder
cone. The giant firs which cover the
base of the cone have not as yet had
time to take possession of its sum
mit. v
This succession of geologic events
is so indisputably imprinted on the
rocks that the Portland Alpine Club,
at a meeting held on the rim of Cra
ter lake in 1896, did not hesitate in
giving to the giant cone, which has
disappeared, the name of Mount Ma
zama. Geologic examination has
only confirmed the rather instinctive
impression as to the true nature of
the crater. But at what epoch did
the cataclysm occur, which caused
the ancient cone to disappear? And
what force of nature was employed
in replacing a giant cone by the
great abyss which we see today? It
is .concerning this dual question
which we wish to speak.
First, what were the dimensions
of Mount Mazama at the time of its
gceatest splendor? vMr. Diller states
that at an elevation of about 2,440
meters the actual diameter of Crater
lake is about the same as Mount
Shasta, California, a volcano whose
lavas are analogous as to the degree
of fluidity. Shasta rises to an ele
vation of 1,850 meters above this
level and has an altitude of 4,383
meters. Mount Mazama must ' have
been at least as high, and this is
shown by extending the exterior
slopes about Cratfer lake to a com
morf origin which would be the sum
mit of the original cone. One may
imagine the primitive magnificence
of this mountain by noting today the
absence of the enormous amount of
material which once formed its mass.
The caldera has a volume of twelve
cubic miles, while the cone, which no
longer exists, had a volume of five
cubic miles.
But how could such an imposing
mass Mount Mazama, one of the
largest pillars of the Cascade range
have disappeared without leaving
any trace? If the mountain was
blown off by a sudden and terrible
explosion, where, then, is all the de
bris? Or were the burning lavas
drawn downward through some sub
terranean passage; were the lavas
suddenly sucked into the chimney of
the cone, thus taking away the sup
port from the superstructure and
permitting it to fall in and become
engulfed? These two hypotheses,
that of. an explosion and that of an
engulfment, have often been given to
explain the formation of large cra
ters and crater lakes. Doubtless,
these hypotheses have their applica
tion, depending upon this or that
particular case; however, neither one
seems to be sufficient to fully ex
plain Crater lake. But there is little
doubt as to the true cause. The hy
pothesis of an engulfment alone
seems to explain, when due consider
ation is given the observed facts. If
the hypothesis of an explosion were
accepted, where is all the volcanic
material which would have been
thrown out upon . the, surrounding
country by this great American Kra
katoa? In vain do we search for a
trace of it. Everywhere we see only
the normal strata and lava flows,
with here and there some beds of
pumice which are of little impor
tance. The last coverings or strata
of the cone, as we have already seen,
were formed by dacites and basalts,
which have nothing in common, so
far as their mineral nature Is con
cerned, with the andesites which rep
resent the principal mass of the vol
cano.
As the divergent striae (which
may be observed at a number of
points around the periphery- of the
caldera) indicate, Mount Mazama
must have been a center of important
glacial dispersion during the pleis
tocene period, and this is a point of
great importance In the chronology
of the volcano. The last eruptions
dacites which are superposed above
the moraines, to. the northeast of
Crater lake, must have been contem
porary with the final catastrophe,
for these lavas were still sufficiently
plastic when the cone was replaced
by the caldera, to change their angle
of inclination, as one may see today
in the cliffs of Cleetwood Cove.
The waters which fill Crater lake
have no visible outlet. Perhaps they
filter or percolate in part through
the porous lavas to reappear at some
distance to the southeast as great
springs in the neighborhood of Klam
ath lake. -

and one of the men was asked to rep
resent them. He accepted, saying
that he was willing to do so, so far
as in him lay, but that his case was
similar to that of a naughty little
girl who was told that if she didn't
behave she would be shut up in the
chicken coop.
"You can shut me up in the chick
en coop if you want to," replied she,
"but I ain't going to lay any eggs."
ter lake as do the two islands of
Kaumene in the Santorin basin, by
comparison with the circular cliffs
of Thera and Therasla. The lava
flows and effusive masses which had
accumulated as an enormous radiant
cone, the summit of which has today
disappeared, has been cut away as
though by an enormous planer which
destroyed the entlrd j superstructure
of the mountain. Later, under the
