Treaty Does ' Not Give

Attending Schools of
San Francisco ,
" (Jemraal SpeUl Serrtcs.)
Washington,- Jan. 7. Senator
Oearin ' of -Oregon, took lsaue with
President Roosevelt today, and prac
tically said the chief executive either
had not read the treaty between this
' country and Japan, or having read
. it, nad failed to understand it.
That the Japanese have any treaty
"right" to attend the schools of Call-
that the state of California has ex
clusive control of the public schools,
without Interference from President
Roosevelt or the federal government
was positively asserted. - I . ; .
Senator Geartn characterized as
" extraordinary" the claim of the
president that the Japanese had the
right to go to school in California
with or without the consent of the.
state, and his speech, clearly upheld
the doctrine of state rights. . :-
The senator was discussing his
resolution, submitted December ' 12,
of which the following is a part:
8enatorOearln-lia(rTiti"""tnimeTise
audience to hear his first '.nd prob
ably last speech In 'the senate. - At
the conclusion of the morning's rou
tine business, a resolution was called
up authorizing the military . affairs
, committee ' to Investigate the
"Brownsville affair; but this waa laid
aside, to allow , Senator Gearin to
speak. - The speech attracted much
attention., and held throughout Its
; delivery the greater part of the large
audience assembled Jo . hear '. the
Brownsville- debate. , ? .
Whereas, The senate considers that
"the further unrest rlc ted Imnrlrratt on of
Japanese laborers Into this oonntry Is
pot desirable; therefore,, be It 1
Resolved, That It Is the sense' of the
. senate that it is advisable that negotia
tions should be entered ' Into with the
Japanese governmeftt by the proper ex
ecntive officers of the . "United States
with a view te securing such- modtflca-
tlon of the existing treaty with Japan
aa wilt clearly define and enumerate the
right guaranteed Japanese under said
treaty, and will provide 'that the fur
ther coming- of Japanese cooly laborers
into the United States be prohibited al
together. ' ; '
In speaking to the ' resolution,' the
senator said: -y,' :. . , , .
ITew Treaty sTeeded.
r Although by 'the constitution the
"power, to make treaties ' with foreign
governments Is not vested in the con
gress, yet. Inasmuch as no treaty can be
entered Into until the action of the ex-
. eoutlve In negotiating it Is -ratified by
' the senate. It cannot be deemed a pre-
- sumption to suggest In advance to the
president the desirability of a treaty,
If one does not eatst, or the modification
of one already existing and which the
senate has heretofore ratified. -t

Marriage first snd parental consent
afterward was the policy adopted by
pretty Olive Christina Smith and koo
art MoNlder -Cameron, young-people of
Vancouver, B. C.,; when they decided
that life apart would be a long, dismal
blank.- Although the .marriage- cannot
be really classed as an elopement, yet
the wedding was surrounded, with such
a degree of secrecy and the succeeding
events r Of such great heart Intereat,
that the romsnce of the young couple
is wnrthyrof exploitation.
The bride, a charming brunette of SO
summers. Is the daughter of Alex Smith,
who la associated, with Phil Metschan In
the Imperial hotel cafe and resldea with
her mother at 7J1 Seymour street, Vsn
couver, B. C. ' The man of her choice

tion -o- having the distinction of being
one of the champion lacrosse and hand
ball players of the coast, also occupies
a prominent position In the fire depart
ment of the British Columbia metropo
lis. , ''
Papa Thong Za Toung. .
:: The marriage, which waa the culmi
nation of a romance having Ita lnctpl
ency In childhood, occurred -on Decern;
ber 11 at the home of Rev. J. M. Mac
Leod, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church of Vancouver, and until the
pretty bride asked for the blessing of
her pater Saturday, waa unknown to
any of her relatives. -
Early In December Cameron wrote to
Papa Smith asking for hie daughter's
hand In marriage, avowing that he loved
the girl with all ht eoul and using
other such expressions employed by
love sick swains. Smith had no valid
objection to the wedding other than he
considered his daughter, rather young
to erabarkkon the matrimonial sea.
Owing to the pressure of business,, he
did not reply to - the communication
at once and before bla letter of consent
reached Vancouver the romantlo couple,
fearful that- something would occur to
prevent the nuptials, decided to so ar
range matters that parental interfer
ence would prove unavailing. A license
was secured snd a hurried visit made
to the minister's home.
Now, inadvertently,, little Miss Smith
that was. failed to mention the matter
to her doting mother or grandmother,
