Hy tho lnw, hereafter no nlicn who is not eligible to citizenship can acquire land within the state by purchase. He may, however, rent property for not longer than threc-yenr periods with renewals nt tho end of these periods. The bill, which brought Secrelnry of State Brynn hero on a hurry mission to nltempt to prevent its passage, is nimed directly nt tho Japanese who havo acquired vast tracts of tho most fertile valley lands which American citizens have been forced to vacate because of the cheapness of Japanese labor.
