The bill provides for going on with the geological survey of the state, and tha completion of a set of 'maps known as "quadrangles." ' ' Toward that end the state has been cooperating with the United States geo- logical survey each arm of tne govern ment spending an equal amount.

But, contrary to a popular belief, they are net marked for any sporlal persecution on the part of their countrymen. They simply miss thslr holidays, work on and hope to be square with' the world when the next year rolls around. There is no highbinder work, no black mailing, no deadly feuds during Chinese New Year's. Enemies speak as they pass by and all are friends. Those who have houses keep open house for friend and foe alike Roast , pig and all the popular Celestial delicacies are passed out with a profuse hand. Chinamen who do not have houses spend their money freely. None work except those whose business makes it absolutely necessary. shdasfdr gambling, no police, forcel can prevent gambling during -Ctyoese New Year. '.. ,:. . -.
