" Judge Webster and the county commis
sioners were active in invoking a ref
erendum on -the measure, ana tnis is
the form In which it now cornea to the
neonle for their arjoroval on rejection.
Judge Webster, speaking for the com
missioners aa wen as nimseu, tiiw
ously stated his reasons for opposing
the proposed law this morning, saying.
In substance: - i
. ' Friction Incited. , '
' -: "Ths bill proposes to' establish a di
vided authority In o, manner that in
vites friction and defeat for all the
' painstaking efforts of the county clerk
in building up a road system a system
' that j is only begun, and will extend
through adoption and example through
out the state, if. not interfered with by
ill-advised legislation. It Is a matter
beyond argument that where any great
work Is to be carried on thera should
be one head, one authority, and only
one. The law gives the county court
the car of road matters. Through the
rockplle and the working of the prls
oners good roads caa.be built and are
being built. "
"Now then, ths chief end In view at
the rockplle Is the making of good
roads. The guarding of the prisoners.
While necessary, is Incidental. It . is
essential that the men in charge shall
be part of tha road-making machinery
of the county, selected with a .view to
their capacity In ; working tha , rnen,
,. treating them humanely, guarding them
securely, and directing the work In such
manner as to obtain the greatest results
In roads. v r-"r-. '
t "That Is the kind of a fore the coun
ty court has been building up, and I be
lieve we have done well. Mistakes
have been made, but we now have a
trained lot of men who know how, when
and where tha work should be done.
.,' ? Division Would Frove FetaL ,
"If tha sheriff had the appointment
of the guards the court would virtually
lose Its control' over the direction of the
work. It la Idle to say that tha sheriff
can be given the custody of those men
and the county, court at the same time
can direct the work.' This division of
authority Is unnatural, and it would be
fatal to any kind of business. , . It In
vites disaster at the berlnnlng, a
"The certain interference wftlt road
Work Is the. greatest objection of - any
to the proposed bill, but there are many
other reasons, some of which reach far
beyond the things that appear on the
face of tha question. The engineers
and blasters employed at the 'rock quar
ries are employed by tha county court,
and 'It Is not proposed-to place them
under the sheriff. -Hare also. In the
making of regulations and tha Ideas
that might prevail among the guards
as to their going In and out ana their
manner of work, thera would be addli
tlonal opportunity for friction.' y
. Too ProflteMe to Sheriff. .
"Then the matter of expense should
be considered. At tha butte tha county
eourt is now feeding tha prisoners for
not more than cents per meal. Tha
.proposed law authorises the sheriff to
furnish meals for 12 cents,, without
saying anything about what kind of
. meals.. The cheaper -fare, the : greater
tha profit of the sheriff. , The county
court believes that men engaged In
hard labor on the rockplle should hare
good meals, and we are seeing that
tha meals are furnished in compliance
with a sort of bill of fare that we ar
ranged In advance.' .Figuring .out the
difference in cost between oents and
12 cents, . thai profit to go - into tha
focketof tha sheriff would be $t,000 or
6,00a par, year- But, we have no aa
curanoa that tha , meals - furnished
through our county kitchen at - tha
butte would continue to be as good aa
, they are now, and If they were not so
good, tha profit would be greater. It

J-a produced and handled largely by ori
ental labor. In fact tha Industry prae
Ucally depends upon the 8,000 or 6.000
Japanese .laborers In Fresno county.
Thay came ' several yeara 5 a ago, ; they
worked ; faithfully, Land ? they v worked
cheap. Tha grape growers believed that
in the Japanese they had found tha solu
tion vt tha vexing labor problem, which
air California,- fruit growers are con
tinually struggling, to solve." After a
tlma tha Japanese had practically placed
aJ I other laborers out of competition.
TAen they changed their attitude. They
had their employers at a disadvantage,
and demandd Increased wages and, all
sorts-of privilege -. ,
'' Japanese - farm laborers are by no
- means content to remain In their post;
tlon, and they Invariably attempt to es
tabllah colonies whloh will give the
conrmuntty a bad name With white peo
pla. This reduces the pries of. real
state, and tha Japanese enter upon pos
seesloa of tha land by leasehold or pur
chase. Wherever the Japanese farmer
comes In fores he drives out tha. white
man from tha community. His presence
is as surely depressing upon real estate
values as the presence of a colony of
negroes Is In a southern-city.- --
Tha Japanese farm laborer In tha
small . fruit sections of the state can
. find employment at wagea of tl.it to
$1.78 a day. In the great prune growing
district of Santa Clara valley they can
make as much as 18 a day during tha
picking season.4 " They live on next to
nothing, and save their money. To their
savings thev add money advanced from
Japan, er they did until the panio cut
off tha supply from home, then go out

1,000 farms, an Aggregate of mora than
100,000 acres. .There can be little doubt
that many of the farms -were acquired
with money advanced from Japan by the
financial agents of the all-grasping Im
perial household. ' A Tokio banker Is
responsible for tha statement that the

A Japanese colony In tha Sacramento
valley, - where potatoes are largely
grown, succeeded-in obtaining leaaea on
a large part of tha land. Two .years
ago they attempted to corner tha Cali
fornia potato market. ' They failed and
lost large sums of money. - Last year
they renewed tha attempt and ware suc
cessful. They controlled practically tha
entire output of potatoes In tha state,
doubled the price and made back their

hom profit -besides. - This spring the

TacavlUa la a Japanese. town. It is
said that a traveler in the. Vaca valley
will meet nine Japanese, to one white
man. The fruit orchards in this valley
aggregate about 18.000 acres, of which
more than half Is --controlled by' Japa
nese under lease. - A- small section Is
owned by tha Japanaae outright. The
Japanese . stores , In Vacavllle control
three fourths of the business of the
town. , In. this section the farmers wel
comed tha " Japanese - with enthusiasm,
rovlded no accommodations for white
a borers at all, and rested on oriental
help. It was but a few years until the
Japanese became masters of tha situa
tion, - owning r or - leasing the greater
part of the .land and outnumbering the
whites In population. Land values have
shrunk one third slnea. the Japanese In
vasion. . Efforts are .-.being , made, to
bring in white farmers by cutting up
tha land-Into small noldings, offering
tnem to wnite rarmers witn ramines
at -reasonable f Iguroa. and encouraging

The araed and suDerftciallt 'of the
Japanese is proving his own undoing
In this particular section. 1 Ha haa been
here fifteen years and for half of that
tlma has been In-practical-control of
the situation. ' He has - had tlma for
his -. poor methods - of cultivation - to
tell, and they have proved him. an In
competent horticulturist. In view . of
the excellence of tha gardens of Japan,
and the well-known Japanese skill In
tree culture, - this may be surprising.
But the fact is that the Japaneaa here
have forced their trees for the purpose
of producing Immediate results, have
looked to tha penny of today rather
than to tha shilling of - tomorrow. A
-The same business fallacy which
caused Osaka cotton mills to pay 10-per
cent dividend last year, and so impover
ish themselves that this year they can
not take tha raw ootton from the ware
houses, -baa proved tha undolngjof the
Japanese in the Vaca vslley. --..They
want, to make all tha money at onca.
They still retain one great advantage
over the. white .fruit grower, their or
ganization is such that they are assured
of a sufficlnent labor supply .during the
picking and packing season, while ,the,
white grower must trust to. luck for hls
help, -' ' , ; "
! "".' Xa Fresno Oountv. :
,. Here In Fresno county there are also
a goodly number of - Japanese lease
holders, and there are about 80 who
own vineyards, two of thera large ones.
The Japanese laborer In the raisin
grape section haa a physical advantage
which- places him beyond fear of com
petition. Ha has been used to squatting
on his heels beside the low vines. Tha
raisin pickers are paid by the quantity
of grapes they gather, and a Japanese
can aaallv earn 12 a day while the white
man alongside can make but $1. TheJ
full Japanese . - population ox - Fresno
county during the picking season Is
about MOO.; Half of this number stay
here the year round.' while the others
scatter through the state until tha next
season cornea around. -" - ? "
The Japanese are also trying to-jret
control of the fruit Industry of the Pa
Jaro valley. The farmers here suffered
from -a lack of labor and tha Japaneaa
were welcomed with great acclaim, i At
first they were treated with the utmost
consideration, but as time went on -the
people discovered that thera were radi
cal differences between tha Japanese
and the Chinese, with whom they had
oeen rami liar. For several years on
bank In WatsonVille, the center of the
valley,, haa refused to open an account
with 4 Japanese, although the same
bank welcomes business -with the Chi
nee. The Japanese turned to the money
order-department of the pastoffloe for
banking facilities. - Tha result was that
tha toatmaatr soon Introduced extra
ordinary requirements for Identification
wnen aeaung witn Japanese. . .
V" a: ;2 Southern Oltrua Bali, ' -. W
la southern -California where the elt
rua frulta are the principal crop, ft he
experience with tha Japanese haa been
tha same so far as his qualifications as
a laborer are concerned. - The extremely
hia-h rjrlce of land and other local con
dltlons have operated to. discourage tha
Japanese from attempting to secure ex
tensive holdings In the south. Not near
ly ao many laborers are needed as In tha
small fruit sections, and the labor ques
tion Is not so acute. Tha citrus grow
rs, however,-for the most part agree
that the Japanese 'Is unsatisfactory be
cause he Is unreliable, haa no regard for
tha obligation of a contract, and Is quick
to take advantage of bis employer. The
southern Calif ornlans, as tna peopre in
other parts of the state, are loud in their
praises of tha Swiss, Portuguese i and
Spanish - laborers.; They also consider
tha Italian more desirable than Japa
nese, although' the .vendetta and Its
deeds of violence cause a strong dislike
of - the southern Italians. . - .'. 1
A curious feature of tha labor ques
tion and. Its accompanying racial fssua
In California Is ths changed attitude to
ward the Chinese. The employers la
California always did like tha Chinese,
but the Influx , was . so great that all
California- practically, joined in tna ae
mand for exclusion. Now that tha Chi
nese-Immigration has been -stopped for
20 years and tna Chinese nera are do
coming fewer, - California seems almost
to rearAt i It. . Certain It Is-that when
ever a Japanese .is seen or heard, tha
Calif ornlan Instantly makes a compari
son which Is Infinitely to tha advantage
of the Chtneee. The sober thought of
tha state, however, -fears tha Incoming
or any oriental- people ana it iooks 10

and to tha rest of tha United States for
settlers . and farmers, , Tha Asiatic la

' In rural California ths opposition to
Japanese la based more on racial than
economic reasons, .The Japanese laborer
Is the best tha California farmer- can
find in that he Is -reasonably efficient
and reasonably cheap. But for all Of
mai, even umwr conauiuni u pcrinu
the white man to absolutely oontrol the
Japanese, there Is a fear and distrust
which Is born cf innate racial antagon
ism. - The presence of the Japanese In
any considerable numoer demoralises

A California village 10 years ago wel
comed Japanese labor. It was a typical
village Inhabited by Americana, with its
school, its churches and lts: stores.
There were tna usual cissensions oe-.
tween the' Methodists and tha Baptists.
These Japanese v laborers continued to
come in. One of them became a mer
chant.. Otbera leased land. Later they.
bought land round about tha village.
Tha Invasion was silent and - gradual.
But now, what a change haa come over
that village! v Methodists and Baptists
stand together,' their dogmatic differ
ences forgotten, In wondering contem
plation of a Buddhist mission. Repub
lican and Democrat - bury the. political
hatchet and declare that "this shall be
a white man's country." This Japanese
village In California la a living proph
ecy of tha actual danger to American
civilisation on the Pacific coast If It Is
not protected by Aalatlo exclusion laws.
