Asiatic Exclusion league it was
htatliy hooted and hissed at the
conclusion of tho reading of an ar

that particularly aroused the meet

"It Is not that we fea. attack from
Japan, The Japnnese war is mndo in
Europe, a fantasy of tho yellow
nswspapors of Paris, a nightmare of
the profesilonal agltutors of San
Francisco and Seattle."
In commenting on tho article Pre.
(dent O. A, Tvoltmoe, who presided,
declared that If "tho eminent profee-j
sor gave less attention to the biology
of fish and moro to the conditions of
tho human race ho would not be so
grossly Ignorant of tho true situation
of the Oriental exclusion quastion."

Washington, May 11 That an at
tempt will be made to bar President
Rooiovelt from participating In ho
proceedings of tho conference of gov
ernors which meets horo next Wed
nesday, after an organization la nf
fected, is not unlikely, according to n
report that has reached tho oars of
the governors who have already ar
rived here.
Why such action is contemplated
If It Is. Is a puzzle to many, as it is
polntfd out that Inasmuch as the
President called the governors togeth
er he should bo permitted 4o take
uny part ho wishes in their delibera
tions. However, nobody can be found
who wants to stand rssponslblo for
the story. A probablo basis for li
may bo found In the President's re
fusal to consider William George
Jordan's proposition for a houso of
governors and a disposition on the
part of many of the state executives
to adopt the plan.
