HAS HOOVER EVER LANDED ANYTHING? .Mark Sullivan, the corre.tpiiud int. think that Heilxit Hoover may fail to land a la-e in JlunliiiK'K ralanet. Km has Hoover ever lauded anything he went out after? Kugeiie Uuurd. COVER at the nf?e of 14. went tiller im education anil got it, by workiii" his wnv throii;h collcce. After prntliiiitioii Hoover went after a job anil got ft, assistant Manager of the Carlisle Mines in New Mexico and the Morning Star mine in California ill the age of 20. Three years later, he went after the job as chief of the mining stuff of Berwick Moreing and Co., and got it, was made a partner and in 1899-00 took an active part in the defense of Tientsin, and was made general manager of the Chinese Lngineering and Mining company. At the age of 31 Hoover was acknowledged as one of the foremost mining engineers in the world, and was the moving spirit in one of Hie largest and most profitable mining enterprises known up to that time. "When, tin 'ough dishoncsly of a subordinate, the firm was fi nancially embarrassed Hoover made the deficiency good out of his own pocket anil put the business back on its feet again. At the outbreak of the war Hoover at great personal sacrifice, went after the rescue of Belgium anil through his loyal devotion! exceptional administrative skill and courage, literally saved this coun try from extinction. Later, through his services as food adminis trator of (he I'nitcd Stales, he went after supplying the warring na-' mm sumeicni ioo,i stulls, and Ins record here is too fresh in the minds of a grateful nation to reipiiru extended comment. If a man ever got what he went after, Hoover is that man. If lie had gone after I he Republican nominal for president, he would nnuest,onably have been successful, if he had gone after the Demo cralie nominal ion he would have been successful there. Hut Hoover has never gone out aller any political honors, and Probably never will. Today, while his enemies are buzzing about to keep hnn irom a cabinet position, and secure positions for themselves Hoover s working night and day, wilhout a cent of remuneration to "it i no tiiree ai nc-liali: million starving childre rope. fas Hoover ever landed anylhing he ever went after?

The native Hawaiian race is going down hill to extinction. The American aud Euro peans, altogether, are not over Zu.UUO, but they are in large part the capital ists, professional people and directors of the plantation!! and industrials. 1 hero are at present no fierce race hatreds, hut it is as clear as noonday that within a few years the Japanese, with their rapid growth of population, aided by the picture bride system, will have a majority of the members of the territorial assembly. They will demand the appointment of a government of Japanese extraction. They will be masters of those islands. Among the Japanese there is a strong racial organization, apparently engineered hy the consuls of the Jap anese empire and the priests of the Uuddhist and Shinto temples, for In those Islands there are more temples of the Japanese faiths than churches of the Christiun religion. The Japanese government keeps track of the grow ing young men and expects them at 16 years of age to he enrolled on official Japanese lists. The Japanese like the islands, because they are much hetter off than the same people could pos sibly be in Japan; but the road back home is not allowed to be closed for lack of weeding by the Japanese gov ernment. If the Japanese are allowed to come to the United States at will, or in any considerable number, the eventual fate of California, Oregon anil Washington will be the same us Hawaii. It seems beyond controversy that friendship between Japan and tho United States will he restored most promptly hy an act of congress prohib iting the Immigration of Japanese col onists (students und agents of business houses being welcomed as heretofore). That is something to which the Jap anese cannot object. The Japanese themselves have always prevented the immigration of other peoples owing to pride in their own civilization. Their land laws at tho present time aro so arranged as virtually to prohibit col onlzatlon hy foreign peoples in Japan In the ubsenco of Immediate, com pleto restriction of Japanese colonists anti-American propaganda ill Japan is causing some Japanese people to de velop the idea that they are entitled to a voice in making the laws of the United Slates, just as certain Amer ican congressmen now feel privileged to attempt ltitereference In the inter nal affairs of European countries. Im mediate restriction, however, will silence trouble makers and eliminate further controversy regarding Jap anese colonization on the Pacific coast. It- would also minimize war-talk. Bad feeling might unavoidably continue for a time, but it would not he so laden with tho germs of possible military conflict as at present. How Much Do You Know? PORTLAND MAN GAINS 30 POUNDS TAKING TANLAC "before I started taking Tanlac I was so bad off 1 couldn't do a lick of work, hut now I am back at wurk and am thirty-three pounds heavier than before and feeling better than I have in twenty years," said 11. II. .Mor ris, llllu Huron street, Portland, Ore gon. "Twelve years ago I suffered a gen eral breakdown and 1 gut worse and worse each year until finally I had to iltilt work. I was living in Colorado at the time and after spending lots of money on different medicines with out getting relief, I thought a change of crlimaie was what I needed, so I moved to Portland, but instead of get ting better I grew worse. I had rheumatism in my arms and shoul ders und the pains would go up my neck into the back of my head," and at times my wrists gave out com pletely anil 1 could hardly pick up my hat. My uppetlte went down to noth ing, sometimes I even hated to go to the table and what little 1 managed to eat did me more harm than good. I lost weight and strength and was so weak 1 felt like there was hardly any life or energy left in me. "Well, by the time I had finished my second bottle of Tanlac I was eat ing better, feeling better and picking up In weight right along, since tak ing four buttles I have gained thirty pounds und feel Just like 1 have been made over. The rheumutlsm has dis appeared altogether and the pains in my neck and bead have all gone. My big gain In weight shows that I have the finest kind of appetite, nnd noth ing I eat ever gives me any trouble at atl. I am back at work and never miss a day and I give the credit for my health and strength entirely to Tanlac." Tanlac Is sold hi Medford by West Side Pharmacy, In Jacksonville by J. W.

Hltfxrn.u o. r Director, the Business Conditiono Ser-vlce, Alexander Hamilton Institute. achievements can bo hotter reallycd I ho sooner wo censo lalklng about tho Intellectual and economic equality of the Japanese, tho moro speedily shall we restore our relations with Japan to their former friendly basis. Japanese students who huvo attend ed American universities have display ed it high order of Intellectual ability and huvo not suffered by comparison with. American students. Tho Japanese who have engaged in agriculture In California have displayed efficiency in that Industry. Wo might well con clude that it would bo a good thing If the entire population of the United Stales were all Japanese, so far as economic production is concerned. Hut that brings up (lie crux of tho mutter. Ho we want our population a century hence to be all, or even half, Jap anese? The Japanese ipteslion is en tirely one of land colonization nnd cit izenship. Experience shows thai national soli darity Is Impossible where the popula tion Is made up or heterogeneous com munities of mixed racu and color. If five million Chinese should colonize upon the land of the Japanese empire, the Japanese government would he quick to pass laws restricting Chinese Immigration. Even granting the Intel lectual aiid economic eiiuality of the Chinese, the Japanese government would exclude the Chinese as an act or national seir-pi-eservation. Similar ly, If three million American whites were to settle on Japanese laud and were to show a birth rale higher than that, of the Japanese people there would he great alarm in Japan. There would be no question of race equality discussed. The Japanese would mere ly debate whether they want the ru lute control to be In the hands or the Japanese or the white race, and they would vote lit favor of the slogan .lapan ror the Japanese.'' That Is till thai Is the mailer In California. It Is merely a question of whether the land and the government shall continue to be controlled hy Americans or by an other race. There could easily be ten million Japanese In the l ulled States within filly years if immigration Is unrestrict ed. There would probably be fifteen r twenty million Chinese In the conn try now If congreiis had not restricted Chinese immigration In the year 1SSS. We owe a debt of gratituilo to the members of congress w ho pusced thai law, not because the Chinese are not economically productive and Intellect ually capable, but because national with a homogeneous population. Imag ine tno result of tho recent war If the American people had heen 30 per cent i nineso and 20 per cent Japanese. They would not have been so largely ot ono mind and one purpose. They wouiii not nave been so Inspired by the uesi in American traditions as they were. Shall the American people con tinue lo ho one In heart and soul, or shall this country at tho end of the twentieth century seo its congress be come a League of Nations duvold of national spirit nnd American tradi tions? The president or the Canadian Pad lie railway, Mr. E. w. lleatty, un doubtedly had u similar thought In mind regarding the, ruturo ot Canada when he recently commented upon the immigration question in connection with Canadian business prospects, as rollows: Immigration should he extensive, and obviously, too, should ho control led, so as to permit the entering into the country of those who will contrib ute most largely to lis productivity. Tho admission of masses of people whose national characteristics prevent their assimilating into tho life of Can ada and becoming lit dne course luoio ly Canadian citizens, should bo dis couraged. Let us all admit intellectual and eco nomic equality, but let us bo Hank legarding the difference of color. He ganllng I lie latter point. Proteasor A. K. liarl of Harvard, Hie eminent writer on American history, bus the following to say: liiown Is us honorable as pink. Yet in the long run race consciousness will show itself wherever tho race distinc tion Is visible. It will extend Into pontics and government. If tne Jap anese get the majority, they will Im pose on other races as separate and theielore inferior. Or else a like pieju nice on the other side will keep the Japanese down. I ho country may read the future In the light of the present condition ot the Hawaiian Islands.
