To Stop Foreigners

to bar the publication from the mails

$500, or a year's imprisonment, or both.
The other measure provides for can
cellation of the naturalization papers
and deportation of any person who
writes, prints, or speaks criticism of the
government in a foreign langungo.

as one year ago, according to C. O. Con
stable, county fruit inspector. He at
tributes this to some extent to the dry
weather stopping the running of the

for the sap and in dry years like the
present, the lack of sap in the tree stops
the spread of teh disease.

Possibly no affliction can have a more depressing
effect upon the whole body, or deprive life of so
much sweetness, as defective sight unattended to.
Aside from the health ruining drain it puts upon
the nervous system, it may shut entirely all the
