Last Saturday's Philadelphia Times
contains a lengthy communication from
Baker City, this state, eulogizing Let
Bon Iialllot and his mouthpiece, the Ba
ker City Herald, "the leadir.g puper of
the Northwest." The part which Mr.
Ballict has played In the development
of Eastern Oregon Is pictured In glow
ing terms, the history of his difficul
ties with the Baker City Herald and
his purchase of th plant are fully told
and last, but by no means least, the
prominent (?) position which that won
derful (?) piper holils in Northwestern
journalism is emphaslted. In the words
oi Ma limes correspondent, The pi
per was pushed rapidly to the front,
until today the Baker City Herald is
the leading paper of the Pacific North
west." We fancy that this win be in
teresting news to the Portland Oregon
Ian, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and
a few more of the secondary she Us of
the Northwest which have been sj
speedily outclassed by their formidable
rival at Baker City. Mr. Balliet is
certainly to foe congratulated for h's
enterprise, not In owning the best pa
per in the Northwest but In having as
so earnest an advocate a man whose
unparalleled capacity for lying quali
fies him for a prominent position on
the San Francisco Examiner.

THE EXCLUSION QUESTION.
Butte Inter-Mountain.
As the section most deeply interested
In the matter, California is taking the
lead in the effort now being made to
make certa'n the re-enactment of ihe
Chinese exclusion act, which expires by
'imitation next year. To this end Rep
resentative Kahn haslntroduced a bill
to extend the provisions of the existing
act to 1922. ,
It was in 1882 that the first act ex
cluding Chinese laborers was pass"d.
It expired in 1S92, and the present law.
which Is much more effective and
sweeping than the first, was passed in
that year. ,. At that time the Japs had
not shown any inclination to come to
this country, so that they were not
Included In rhe provisions. In 1891 there
were but 2000 Japanese in the United
States, Including students, merchants
and laborers. Since then, however,
there has been a great influx of Japan
ese. It wa.s particularly heavy in I960,
and It is understood' that this was
largely due to the f?ar of the Japanese
that their country was about to engage
I" ?. great war with Russia. Whatever
may have been the cause, this govern
ment considered the matter of sufficient
Importance to call the attention of the
Japanese government to It with the
result that such Immigration was !m-
mediately decreased. There are, how
ever, 'so many Japanese now In ihe
country that the Pacific coast people
generally demand that the exclusion In
extended to Japan.
Prof. MUuskuri, of th University of
Japan, protests against such action. He
says it wou'd certainly give his country
greater offense than an open declara
tion of war. He points out the wide
difference between the Chln sc and Jap
anese, and while admitting that the
lower dosses of his countrymen who
have come to the I'nited States may
contain some und'Virable elements, j
states that this in ly be easily remedied I
by a diplomatic arrangement between J
the two cjuntries. Japan, he says, has j
had a long struggle l" recovering ihoo
ritrhts as an Independent stat which '
she was forced to suniiid't- to foivisn j
nations at the beginning- of her inter- i
course with them, anil in ..btainiiig a ;
