California Legislature Strikes Out
Reference to Foreign Fleet, In
Asking Congress for Pacific Coast
Squadron.
SACRAMENTO, Cal., Jan. 2G.
Afraid of offering an affront to Ja
pan, the federal relations' committee
of the atate assombly struck out all
reference to the "Pacific fleets of
other nations" In a resolution calling
upon congress to send a battleship
fleet to this coast. In reporting the
resolution today the committee makes
only a modest request for warships
and refuses entirely to report a rec
ommendation on the resolution ask
ing for more stringent exclusion laws.
Assemblyman Wilson o( Yolo coun
ty, who Introduced the resolution for
memorials to congress, was sharply
rebuked In the committee for what
was termed an effort to stir up In
ternational trouble. He Insisted upon
asking congress for warships, so the
committee killed the sentence In the
resolution asking that the Pacific
fleet be made ns Btrong as the fleet
of any other nation of the Pacific.
Wilson attempted to get the Immi
gration resolution out of conimttec,
but was told that the present exclu
son law was satisfactory.
Assemblyman Cogswell said that
Chinamen aro needed In southern
California to pick walnuts and per
form other cheap labor.
Wilson replied that the farmers of
the northern part of tho stato are sat
isfied with white labor and would ex
clude nil Asiatics.

PLAY MADE HIT:
THO' CAST POOR
George Broatlhurst's Great Play,
"The Man of the Hour" Satisfied
Big "Audiences Despite Poor Cast
Presenting It.
The subject of Municipal graft,
with all its accompanying trickeries
herved to amuse n largo and well
sui'tibfied audience at the Mcdl'ord
opera housso last night when George
13roudhur.-t's strong play, "The Mun
of the Hour," was presented by a
very mediocre company.
With the exception of the roles ol
the two bofeae.-, llachurd Ilarrigan
and James Phelan played by Messrs.
John Moore and John Morris respec
tively, most of the chnrneters went
through their parts in n weak sort of
mechanical fashion and their voices,
especially in tho stronger scenes of
the play, liurdly reached over tho
footlights.
Mcdfunl will always welcome a re
turn of "The Man of tho Hour" it,
with the pos&iblo exception of the
Dooley-like "bosse" of last night
the cast is materially strengthenol
The next attraction billed is the
"Gentleman From Mississippi," a
story dealing with senatorial life in
the nntJQn.ul capital.
"CUTS UP" FOR THE
EDIFICATJQN OF LIONS
SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Jan.
2. Having read in books that wild
animals could bo put to flight by un
usual antics, George Bcmlis, wlin
he met two mountain lions in tho
hills yesterday, started "cutting up."
His audience, the lions, were sq
pleased that they ran toward him,
Bemis decided to forego vnudcvil'e,
and "bebat it." A forest rapger ap
peared and frightened the lions
nway.

ItfEY IS FRIEND
TO LABOR UNIONS
Carpenters Threaten to Refuse to
Work On Schpol Houses Because
Plumbing Contract Is Let to an
Open Shop Man.
Because the school board let tho
contract for the plumbing of the two
new schoolhouses to W. A. Altkcn,
union men may refuse to work on the
building, as Mr. Altkcn has no agree
ment with tho plumbers' union.
It was reported toda ythat tho car
penters of tho city, nearly every one
of hem union men, would notify Al
frey lvey, the contractor, that they
could not work on tho buildings. Thoy
havo not so notified him, hovevcr.
Mr. Ivey himself Is a strong advo
cate of union labor and only employs
union men, and as he had nothing to
do with the lotting of the contract for
tho plumbing, he feels that ho will be
damaged, through no fault of his
own, If the men decline to work on
tho buildings. ,
Tho carpenters have not ns yet
taken a definite stand In regnrd to
the matter, and nffnirs may yot bo
amicably adjusted. It may bo that
inasmuch as Mr. Ivey himself had
nothing to d,o with tho letting of tho
contract, that thoy will agree to work.
Work Is now under way, grading
and excavating. It is planned to rush
the erection of the buildings.
Nature Djd It Well, Too.
(Tho Oregonlan.)
No. It can hardly bo snid that Mrs.
Potter Palmer of Chicago made Rogue
River valley famous. N'aturo may take
full credit for the creation, though
now everybody is helping to exploit
Its beauty nnd frultfulness.
Speaking of Roguo Itlver valley,
why does not that favored section be
gin a bigger campaign of publicity to
tho world as one of the finest winter
resorts on the Pacific coast?

Enables us to offer what we houcslly beliovo is tho best
bargain in a producing orchard in tho valloy. There aro
35 acres in the tract and it is only a mile from a shipping
station.
Tho re are about 11 acres in apples, Ben Davis, Winesaps,
Spit'enborgs, Newtowns. Trees aro about 20 years old.
They are in good condition and produce heavily.
There aro also about 12 acres in standard varieties of
peaches, in full bearing. About 8000 crates of peaches
were shipped from this orchard last year. '
There arc also 8 acres planted to Newtown apples, which
wero three years old this wintor.
The bajance of the land is cloarod and was in grain last
year.
The buildings consist of a house, barn and packing
house.
We think a reasonable estimate of the crop on this place
this coming year would be 3000 to 4000 boxes of apples and
- C000 to 8000 crates of peaches.
A team of horses and a full equipment of machinery gooa
wtih the place.
The price is $15,000, a trifle more than $400 an acre. Tho
terms asked are half cash, balance easy. If you cannot;
meet these terms as to the cash required, make us an offer.
