THE JAPANESE
THEIR INCOMING WOULD
CHEAPEN EVERYTHING,
- HE SAYS.
"I wish to state most emphatically
that I for one am opposed to bring
ing any Japanese in here to clear off
the Iogged-off lands, said a gentle
man yesterday. "I am one of those
who own land, too. '
"I may want to live on the farm
yet myself, or it may be that my son
will work the farm. If the Japs are
brought in the time is sure to come,
in my judgment,, when we will be
sorry that they were ever brought in.
They will ' cheapen everything. It
will not be possible to compete with
them. : Now . the farmer can get: a
market for his products and get good
prices, but if the Japs come," he con-

ITS A GOOD THING TO REFER
to the reputation of a store before
making any . important purchases
therein. Before you buy is the time
to look up the matter. Ask questions
Find out if the store you intend pa
tronizing keeps its pledges. Be sure
that' you learn if it sells the qualities
it claims; if it treats ts customers
honestly and fairly, then, if satisfied,
buy there. . Do all the asking you
wish about us among 'your ' friends,
and that you will result in your com
fng here regularly.

tinued, "what chance have the white
farmers to compete with them? "
"They are clannish - and quarrel
some, They don t become cituens.
If they, once get a foothold here it
will mean that' white farmers will
have nothing to do whh the land,
and 'farms that otherwise would be
valuable will be of no value except
as they may be rented or sold to the
Japs, - These. , things , should be
thought of now, instead of letting a
few men who own a lot of land and
won't themselves spend energy or
money to improve it," run away with
the whole proposition and bring in
what is certain to prove an undesir
able element."
That is another view of the mat
ter that has not heretofore been pre

Commerce, too. . ',

THE MILLIONAIRE TRAMP.
The Baker City, Democrat says:
The Millionaire Tramp was greeted
last night with a large audience and
throughout the rendition of one ; of
the cleverest plot we have seen wov
en together for some time, gave the
closest attention to every part. Duke
Voile as the Millionaire Tramp play
ed his part to perfection and in the
character was the ideal. His efforts
were appreciated by the heartiest
applause on the part of the audience.
Wherever the "Tramp" appears , he
will merit-the .'encomium of the
public, i ,, , ; K
Dr.. John Staley presented by Lo
renzo Mozsar.was one of the strong
est characters we have seen deline
ated for years. To take the part of
the mad man and do it well is no
mean part for the best actors nefore
the public. But there was nothing
to criticise in the tragic performance
f Dr. John !Sta!ey.' f ii-h;. i r-1
The drama was characterized by
splendid female characters; Gertrude
Steel was pctiteT "interesting and in
the last actwag as, sweet and coy as
the most charming ' ' maiden, of, ' the
lpverjs dream. , f - i'v ?
1 here were no overdrawn charac
terization of parts, and of the at
tractions of the play was- the fact
that each part represented quite truly
a character from life.
One of the star performers and
one that brought the house to re
peated encores was Mr. J. C. Wright,
well Jtnowni in Jthia fcity ,anq nj the
Northwest. As a delineator of negro
character he is not excelled in th;
profession and - as a , dancer he is
simply swell. The real stuff. This
was evinced ty the calls and recalls'
he received.

NAME MEANS SOMETHING.
When A- E. ' Petersen built and
named the "Modern" barber shop, he
meant that it should stand for what
it was called. No patron has missed
a single feature of the modern ton
sorial parlor ; t that house; and every
neevice in the way of perfect
comftrrt and service is constantly add
ed as it develops. The latest is an
expert bootblack, the best in the
business; t qualification that makes
his employment really modern. '
