Editor Capital Journal: Your picture of a Japanese industrial invasion of the Pacific coast is inter esting. Like Captain Hobson's view of a Jap military conquest, it is 97 parts pure imigaination; and imaginary ills are always most inspiring. As to Cali fornia, a streak of insanity has been manifest in the California mind ever since the days of Sand-lots Kearney. Politicians play upon it for personal advantage, and the result is a great howl that the white man is being done to death, poor fellow! Less than two per cent of the California population is Jap, and most of these live in townB and cities. To say they are pushing the white man off the land bosh!

Japaaphobia is a good word for this California disease, as now manifest. In no place, perhaps, is race prejudice more marked and fixed than in the South between whites and blacks. But did you ever hear that the presence of the negro is chasing away the whitest In one southern state about one-fourth of the land owners are negroes. Have you heard that the white men are leav ing the state on this account) It seems quite evident from reports that a large part of the howling against Japa land-owning is done by the city dwellers and loafers, who have no per sonal interest in the land question. L. D. RATLIFF. (The Capital Journal has had no pic ture of Japanese invasion, in fact has ridiculed the idea. It would seem from this, that the gentleman who cannot un derstand a plain statement in a news paper, at his home, is hardly qualified to express an opinion as to conditions nearly a thousand miles away. Those opposing the Japs in California are the farmers, those ridiculing the measure are the city dwellers and loafers.) Ed. Married. Since the last issued of The Capital Journal, Bev. Y. S. Knight has per formed three marriage ceremonies, as follows: , Saturday evening, May 3, 1913, at the minister's residence, in Salem, El mer Gtipton and Miss Sylvia M.

JOHN GRIEVE MITCHELL GOES OVER THE DIVIDE John Grieve Mitchell, probably the oldest warehouseman and mill man in the state, passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. John Schindler. of Polk county, Sunday morning at 5 o'clock. The remains were brought to this city and the funeral will take place tomorrow at 2 o'clock) from the under taking parlors of Kigdon & Richardson, interment in City View coraetory. In the death of Mr. Mitchell, this community loses one of its respected end highly esteemed citizens, a mun who was loved and - respected by all who came in contact with him and one who impressed upon his acquaintances and friends a personality found alone iu that old Scottish stock, which is whole-souled, and the acme of dignity, honesty and integrity. Mr. Mitchell was one of those men who lived regu larly. He worked by the sun and ac corded man, woman and child rospect and friendship without stint or favor, '.io was a good father and husband and during his long life of usefulness, never once made an enemy but who afterward was more than willing to meot tho old man half way, and more times heal the breach, if any, with gratitude. A. Son of Scotia. Mr. Mitchell was born in Shannocks, a little hamlet near Aberdeenshire, -Scotland, March 1 , 1841. Whon but a , mere lad, ho came to America. He made his way west, meeting with many hard ships and mishaps and fnally landed in Portland. Here he met and married his wife, Miss Ellen Shepherd, After re siding in Portland ' for a time, Mr. Mitcljell returned to his native land and upon return, came to this city and ac cepted as position as warehouseman in the old Kinnoy mills, the site of which is now occupied by the Salem Flouring Mills Co. The deceased was employed continu ously by the Salem Flouring Mills Co., when the institution was turned over to VV. M. Ladd and others and for over 31 ycors he had charge of the grain ele vator"! and part of the time was a prom inent figure in tho business office. Mr. Mitchell worked for years under the late manager of the mills, Mr. Holland, and when that gentleman died, with W. P. Babcock, the well known local busi ness man. He and Mr. Mitchell have been not only associated in business, but their long acquaintanceship devel oped into a deep friendship, and it was with much regret upon the part of Mr. Babcock that they had to part when his old friend and companion was compellod to nsign his position on account of failing health. "Joke," as the veteran mill man was generally knbwn here, was a close friend of William Ladd, tho Portland banker and finarteior. The latter called upon Mr. Mitchell many times for ad- vice when operations of his differont I mills went wrong, and the trusted em ' ploys never failed to respond with ad vice which proved everlastingly bene ficial to the mill owner. His opinions were looked up to with respect and his friendship always courted by both 'young and old, due to the fact that his standard of respoct for himself and otlurs was such that once a friend, al ways one, was a noccssary sequence. The deceased leaves two sons and a daughter besides a wife to nynirn his death. The sons are J. D. and L, J., both of Portland, and tho daughter is Mrs. John Schindler, of Polk county. can always be depended upon to bring bark the natural color and lustre of your hair and is the best thing known to remove dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair.

GLYNN, Lieutenant Governor of New York TT would bo an excellent thing if it were possible in this country to draw a SHARPER LINE BETWEEN POLITICS " w AND ADMINISTRATION, botween party and officehold ing, but I doubt if the divorce can ever bo complotoly effected. It seems to be one of those cases in government, a compromise will have to be arranged between two ex-tremes. Our old system of regarding REWARD OF POLITICAL fied in recent years by the introduction of civil service laws, but this wholesome check cannot be carried to the point where the country WOULD BE RULED BY AN OFFIC EIIO LDTNO ARISTOC RACY OF MERIT. The people would not tolerate it, and their feeling in tho matter is based upon a very sound understanding of the fact that what the country might gain in some directions by having a highly trained bureaucracy it would more than lose in other directions by withdrawing the bulk of the people from any interest in adminis tration and more gradually from OFFICEHOLDING IS PRETTY POLITICAL IDEAS, AND IT IS NOT FICEHOLDING FOR MOTIVES OF FOR THIS COUNTRY.
