crats. are plainly
a sequel to the election of last week.
Nothing- has contributed more to
the rejuvenation of Woodrow Wilson's
spirit, nothing has proved so effective
a tonic to his health than the election
returns which, differ as one may about
their meaning, were interpreted by Mr.
Wilson,, at any rate, as the swinging
of the pendulum back in his direction.
Too exhausted to undertake again the
arduous tasks of a presidential candi
dacy, Mr. Wilson-cares far more about
the vindication of the. principles which
he championed and this will affect
the chofes of a candidate more than
personal - wish or favor. .
LIKE AIT ETCHING
He stood in the doorway of his home,
just beneath the stone portico he
looked like an etching on page vf
history. It was as; if Jefferson or
Jackson or some of the figures of a
century .ago had stepped forward out
of the portal of - another world, , to
bring back a word of caution4 to a new
generation.
Cheering there was and no one can
doubt Its sincerity but It was not
the fanatical outburst tf a political or
campaign Crowd, it was the response
of a crowd that was too awestruck, too
surprised to cheer continuously. For a
morrtent the noble .figure with head
bowed and bands clasping tightly a
supporting cane, moved a step or two
- and many a throat caught a lump.
But a second later, with his feet Crra
lylflxed In position, so to speak, the
bead . was lifted, the cane- was loosely
hung by . Its crook in an. upper breast
pocket ot thev overcoat,-, and. the . old
Wilson smile spread its greeting eves
the beads of several thousand men and
women packed - tightly In . the narrow
thoroughfare. . ,; ,.-. , ,j
eoNTBA&T ii sbUrp -
There was conspicuous contrast be
tween the tottering' man whose limbs
have, paid the penalty -of a nervous
breakdown and the stationary figure
who. with old-time gesture, with
sharp enunciation and the same rapid
ity of extemporaneous speech which
distinguished his esriier career on the
- stump, waa able In a few minutes to
make his audience forget he was an
invalid and make them think only of
the doctrines he was again champion
ing. The same characteristic emphasis of
facile expression, the same easy-moving-
of the speaker's eyes from one
en of tho crowd to the other, the
same smiling quips , as he asked per
mission .to put on" "his hat with a
promise that if he did so he '"wouldn't
speak through it" all this was con
vincing evidence to the crowd that
Woodrow .Wilson was coming back in
health, was almost himself again.
EFFECT IS ELECTRIC
1 Here and there in the crowd were
prominent Democrats, men influential
in the. councils of the party Cordell
. Hull, chairman of the Ix-moeratic na
tional committee, was there and a few
j members of the senate and house. The
effect upon them was electric' Stlmu-
' la ted by j the results of last Tuesday's
election, most of them feel they have a
rallying point once more in the man
who led the party for eight turbulent
years.! Theodore Roosevelt's popular
ity was at low point when he left the
presidency, but gradually It rose until
. the tide of 1931. four years after he left
the White House, saw it at an un-
precedented height.
The value of a leader with the pres
tige and influence of Mr. Wilson may
not be considered important from the
Republican viewpoint, but when one
considers the state of disorganization
-, of the Democratic party, from coast to
coast and theneed for harmony and a
revival of party activity, the return of
Mr. Wilson to mere or less active coun
sel is tremendously significant. The
Iemocratic party was buried ; in 1920
In the reaction following the war ad
ministration, but the remocratic party
was largely and Is largely, so far as
party leaders are concerned, a. Wilson
organisation. , t
LEADERSHIP BE COGNIZED
Only the split1 between the Palmer
and-McAdoo forces at San Francisco
' enabled the antj-AVttaon elements from
. Nw Tork and Illinois and New Jersey
: to select another candidate, who. how
ever, quickly recognised the import
ance of 4 the , Wilson leadership and
faithfully preached the Wilson doc
trine throughout the country. ; But the
. Wilson strength Is - dominant in the
party today and a coalition of the Wil
son groups , can .easily name the next
:. - candidate. ",, . r ;; ; -:t
Mr. Wilson in his letter to Senator
Caraway, has given first expression to
!: his desire -for, leadership. He said:
"We must now dear, our minds and
i purify u hearts to offer to the coun
j try In 1924 exactly the service Jt roost
needs and the. candidate who can best

CITIZENSHIP
NIPPONESE
Japanese Not White, According
to American Law, Holds U. S.
Supreme Court; , Ruling Af
firms Decision in California.
Washington, Nov. 11. (U. P.) Jap
anese are not white, within the mean
ing of the American law, and are: not
entitled to citizenship in the United
States, the supreme court held today.
The high court affirmed a decision
of the California circuit court of ap
peals in a test case brought by Takao
Osawa of Honolulu, who claimed he
was "white": and was eligible for nat
uralization as an American citixen.
At the same time the court upheld
the Washington supreme court in de
nying citizenship to Takuji Tamaahlta
and Charles Hio Kono of Seattle.
. The decision held that the two Japa
nese were not entitled to naturaliza
tion under the-United States laws, and
therefore could not enter . a business
partnership.
The supreme court's decision in these
cases has long been awaited, particu
larly on the Pacific coast where anti
Japanese feeling exists.
Ozawa contended he was entitled" to
American citizenship as a descendant
of the white tribe of Aisu. He started
hie fight for citizenship several years
ago in Hawaii, but was defeated in the
courts there, and also In higher courts
In California. Ozawa has lived in
Hawaii since his childhood, and was
educated in the .. American ' schools
there. His children, now attending
American schools, are being brought
up as American citizens.
Yamashita presented an argument
similar to that of Osawa. He appealed
to the supreme court when the courts
of the state of Washington denied
him the privilege of incorporating a

nlavmates. had been following Hart's
wagon down Fremont street, asking for
some popcorn. He refused to give them
anything and tow tnem to get away
from his wagon. They failed to comply
with his order and kept calling to him
ana nurllng sarcastic remarks in his
direction.

forx Private Secretary to

E. B. Aldrich. editor of the East Ore
gonlan. at Pendleton, may be private
secretary to Governor Walter M.
Pierce, according to latest political ru
mor. The governor's private secretary
generally , Is the one appointment of
personal and particular interest to the
chief executive, for he Is the man who,
by virtue of his office and duties, sits
closest to the 'Inside office" In con
tinual consultation with the governor
upon matters of state policy. And he
Is the one upon whose shoulders rests
a great deal of the responsibility for
carrying out the details of those pol
icies upon which the governor may de
cide. .
ALDRICH BEST BET
No intimation has come from Governor-elect
Pierce as to who his confi
dential adviser is to be, but the rumor
has sprung up that Aldrich stands
more chance to be given the appoint
ment that anyone mentioned ' for the
place. He was a loyal supporter of
Pierce during both the primary and
the general campaign.
Seemingly more aspirants want to
be Insurance commissioner than any
thing else. Asa B. Robinson of Inde

PHONE RATE CASE
UP IN U. S. COURT

Calling his colleague. Judge tt. E
Wolverton and Judge William B. Gil
bert of the United States circuit court
of appeals to aid him in passing upon
the pie f the Pacific "Telephone A
telegraph company for an injunction
against enforcement of the reduced
telephone rates imposed by the public
service commission. Federal Judge It.
S. Bean began hearing the case at 10 :30
o'clock this morning.
1iie entire federal judiciary,, sitting
en banc, considered first the law point
Involved, attorneys for. the telephone
company urging that the cut in rates
is ' confiscatory- It was considered
probable that the hearing would oc
cupy at least two days unless the com
pany succeeds In making a speedy
showing that would convince the court
of probable validity of its claims.
SPENCER ARGUES
The public service commission, con
sisting of. one holdover member and
two recall members, ordered a .drastic
cut in rates on October 30 as a climax
to a resumed hearing initiated by the
commission. -
The' .company immediately started
proceedings to enjoin enforcement 4 of
the order.
Omar C Spencer launched the argu
ment for the company, reaching the
high point of his discussion just prior
to the noon adjournment when he
charged that the new reduction ef
fective December 1 was not made in
good faith, but In an effort to gain
votes for T. M. Kerrigan at the recent
election. ,
Spencer advised the judges that the
telephone company Is not the first
public utility to ;rush Into the federal
court -Jtor aid within the past few
month He averred that the public
and inexperienced regulatory bodies
do not appreciate the condition in
which public utility corporations have
been placed since the war, and that
many concerns . have been forced to
seek refuge in the courts rather than
submit, to rate reductions'.
ATTACKS CLAUSE
Spencer pointed out to the judges 30
United States district court cases and
six United States circuit court of ap
peal cases of a similar nature which
have been decided since the war in
favor of the utilities.
- He attacked the emergency clause
attached to the order, claiming that
no emergency waa shown to exist
"except an emergency growing out of
the election."
He . also declared the rate reduction
order illegal, claiming it was made in
the middles of a hearing before the
company had opportunity to put nlts
testimony. He also pointed to the act
of the commission in adjourning the
hearing until. December 4, or. four
days after the new -order becomes ef
fective. He classed the acts' of the
commission as arbitrary. - i
i The request for the Injunction will
be resisted by H. M. Esterly, special
counsel for the. commission, and Willis
