"To tho sonato and aogembly:
"Oontlemon: Dellovlng that thoio
fihould bo a further and mora care

No. 14, which provides that boards
of school trustees shall havo tho pow
er to ostnbllsh soparato schools for
chlldron of Japanese and that there
after flioy shall not bo admitted Into
any other public school, nnd further
believing that tho enactment of pro
visions of Bnld bill will, at this time,
affect tho interests of tho cntlro na
tion, and porhnps seriously, I must
respectfully request you to reconsid
er tho vote by which said bill wai
passed, and tnko tho matter nip for
further and most caroful considera
tion. "Within a fow hours after tho pas
sage of said bill tho Tresldont of the
United Stntos, alarmed at tho pos
sible conBoqtionccs of tho enactments
of such a law, sont to mo a tologram
containing tho following language
" 'This Is tho most offonslvo bill of
all, and, in my Judgment, Is uncon
stltutlonnl, and wo hould havo to

coming from tho President of tho
United States, Is entitled to full con

under discussion ongftgod tho atten
tion of our govornmont and Japan bi
causo of a resolution adopted by tho
board of education of San Francisco
directing that all Chlnoso, Jnpauefic
nnd Coronn chlldron bo iout to the
Oriental public vchool. Japan at
onco called tho nttontlon of our gov
ornmont to this resolution which, It
claimed, discriminates against its
subjects, and was In violation of Ha
treaty. It contended thnt tho admis
sion of niton children of other foi
olgn countrlos Into thu public schools
of Ban Francisco, nnd tho denial of
that right to tho chlldron of Its citi
zens, raiding thoro, constituted n
denial to them of tho privilege, llb
ortiOH nnd rtxhtn rotating to tho rights
of residence accorded to tho mibjocti
and citizens of tho most fnvorod na
tion Our government ncqulescod !n
tho views expressed by Japan nnd to
enforce that nation's right under the
treaty, commoncod an action In tho
circuit court of tho Unltod States tc;
enjoin tho school board of 8an Frnii
cIsco from carry'ng out tho provision
of said .re-'olutlon. It was alleged In
tho bill In equity flk-d-thoroln that the
passage of this rosolutlon violated
tho treaty betweon Japan and this
country, nnd prevontod tho Unlte-J
Stntos from carrying out Its obllgj
Uons to tho empire of Japan and to
Ha cHlzons and subjects, as l the
right and duty of the Unltod State
and Imporltlvely vdomnndod by th
national Interests.
"This action was never tried, but
was "dismissed on the withdrawal by
the chool board of San Francisco of
the resolution complained of.
-.voryono supposed that this vex
ing question was sottlod. The peop'.e
of thi' stato had about forgotten It,
and were not paying much nttontlon I
to it until the bill under consideration

of any Japanese pupil, so far as U
known In fact thtre aro but vary

wIbIi to call your nttontlon to tho

by our govornmont to bo correct.
Thoro Is contained In tho prooont
treaty with Japan tho following lan
guago, to-wlt:
