FRAZlER SPEAKS ON STATE RIGHTS Senator from Teaaeaaee Takea Isaac With President Japaaese Qaestloa Cltea Attltade of Secretary Blalae. WASHINQTON, Feb. a The senate today passed the Indian appropriation bill. Sen ator Fraaer made an addreaa on states' rlshts, after which the army appropriation bill, carrying a toUl of $81,600,000, was taken up. The army measure was partly read for approval of committee amendments and adjournment was taken shortly before o'clock when It became apparent that con siderable debate was to be occasioned by an amendment to permit the government to receive reduced rates from the railroads on the transportation of troops and supplies for the army and to allow army officers snd their families to accept free trans portation. The adoption of thle amend ment would be a modification of the rail road bin paaaed at the last session of congress. Senator Warren, In charge of the bill, gave notice that he would press Its con sideration tomorrow. Senator Nelson said he would move tomorrow for the consid eration of the bill granting the government the right of sppeal In criminal cases. Fraaler oat States' Rights. Federal encroachment ' on state rights, with the Japaneae school question as the principal illustration, was the subject of an address to the senate today by Senator Frailer of Tenneasee. Mr. Frailer raid that this was not a question that concerned California alone, but concerned the right of very state to control Its dotneatic affairs. If the federal government, by treaty, could rob a state of the right to control Its own school sys tem, the last stronghold of local ee!f-gov-ernment was destroyed. If a treaty could force Mongolians Into the white schools of California, a like treaty could force the negroes of Cuba, Santo rtomtngo. Haytl and the Congo Into the' schools of Ten nessee In defiance of the lawi for the sep aration of the races. He expreaeed the highest admiration for .the Japanese snd said thst the action of California furnished no pretext for quarrel with that rounjry. The school board of Ban Franrslco had simply executed a state law providing for ths education of white and Japanese chil dren In separate schools. ' It had been de cided over and over again that states had a perfect right to, mae such separation; that the state of California was but ex ercising Its legal Slid ronxtltutlonal power. Cites Attltaae of Blalae. He denied with emphasis that this gov ernment had ever undertaken by treaty to interfere with the constitutional rights of (California la this respect. Quoting the language of the treaty, he aalds "I chal hnge any one. to And In It a word guar anteeing to Japanese residents the right to enter publlo schools of the state at all. much less to enter them In deflanoe of stats laws and regulations." He contended that the president ought to - have followed the example of Mr. malne In the case of the lynching of Ital ian cltlsens In New Orleans. There was a treaty with Italy which guaranteed pro tection to Italian cltlxens, but when the Italian government complained, Mr. Blaine Informed It that Italian cltlsens had no higher rights than American ctlliens and that the right to punish for murder was the exclusive province of the states where the crime was committed. Mr. Frailer dwelt st length on the re cent speech of Secretary Root, which he declared to be a threat to wipe out state lines and absorb all powers of the states into the federal government. "When," he said, "the states are deprived of the right to Judge whether and how far they shall exercise their powers we cesse to be a free people. Ths secretary Inti mated that this usurpation of power was necessary to control the trusts. Before seeking to rob the states of their power let the federal government .use Its own. Let It reduce ths monstrous tariff which had built up and was protecting the trusts." It wss not necessary, said Mr. Frailer, to make ths lights and powers of states conform ts a standard set up by the chief executive alone. "Roast" for President. He said ths president had Incited in surrection against Colombia and committed sets of war without authority of congress; had overridden ths treaty-making power and had threatened to use ths military forces of the United States to override the laws of the states. He spoke ot the presi dent's having gone forth "with pomp and ceremony, followed by an armed fleet trail ing at his heels, after the manner of ths German kaiser, to visit bis -outlying prov inces." Secretary Root, he said, had evolved a constructive recess snd had recently visited the capitals ot the south to show them ths big stick snd tell them to be good snd pay their debts. These were the people who were crying for mors and greater Power. "This," ho said, "should not be mads s party question, but It ths republican party chose to go to battle upon an lasue for the complete subversion of ths rights of the states, the democratic party, always the party of ths constitution, will accept the Issue. But the question arises above party; It goes to the very preservation of our wisely devised system of dual govern ment, under which we have so marvel ously growa and prospered as a people." PROCEEDINGS OF . TUB UOCSB Mr. Moadell Attacks Rlsht sf Presi dent to Withdraw Lands. WASHINQTON, Feb. a A new high record In the way of passage of private peiislon bills was made In the house today when 7S bills were paaaed In an hour and s half The naval appropriation bill, carrying t95,4JS.O0O, was ' Uken up and ' under ths order ot general debate speeches were mads by Mr. Lamar ot Florida oa the "railroad rate bill" and Mr. Ills fins of Con necticut, favoring the creation of the White mountain and Appalachian .forest reserves. Ths limitations of federal authority" was the subject of a speech delivered today In ths house by Mr. Mondell of Wyoming, which dealt especially with ths withdrawal of cost lands from entry. Hs stated he had.no thought of Im pugning the motives of sny executive of ficer la connectjon with the withdrawals, but that this was not a question as to ths good faith of public officials nor- of the wisdom of land laws, but of the authority of ths executive departments to modify, amend snd annul acts of congress. Mr. Mondell stated that to remain silent in the presence ot the far-reaching effect of orders . suspending ths land laws might be construed Into an acquiescence In their validity, and if not challenged these acts would be cited as precedents for further extension of the executive power in sus pending the operations of laws. He con tended that while the question of authority for these acts was the most Important one, in Tiew of the great Injury that had been dons settlers and those seeking to develop ths west and which would inevitably follow the suspension of land laws over large areas, the question of the wisdom or neces sity for these wholesale withdrawals snd suspensions was also Important. He de clared It would have been neither wise nor necessary to issue the orders In question. even had there been authority for so doing, n snd pointed out that while M.uoo.ooo seres in the states and all of Alaska had been withdrawn the government had only dis posed of 400.000 acres under the cosl land lows in thirty-four years. In view of these facts, he suggested that even had it been within the authority of the Interior department to do so, there could be no warrant In withdrawing from coal entry over fifteen hundred times more coal Jand than was entered last year. At the rats of last year's sales it would take over fifteen hundred years to dispose of ths coal lands which had been withdrawn from entry, not taking into consideration the millions of acres In Alaska. Hence, he contended, there was little in the situation to suggest that the public lands would' be gobbled up In the Immediate future if not withdrawn. A scathing criticism of the so-called Hep- burn bill, relating to the. interstate Com merce commission, was made today In the house by Representative Lamar of Florida, who said there should be written Into the Hepburn bill a provision empowering the Interstate Commerce commission to take the Inltatlrs In righting a wrong In railroad rstes where a wrong Is dons. He said the republican congressmen would have sat In the house for twenty years more without touching the railroad rste question of President Roosevelt had not thrown the Issue under them like a bomb. Incident to his speech on the railroad rste bill. Mr. Lamar reviewed the recent Impeachment trial of Judge Charles Rwayne by the senate, and said that notwithstand ing his acquittal, "we nevertheless bsve s rascally Judge In Florida While I can do 1 nothing to bring about his removal, I csn from time to Urns tell the house of his record."

'. . Snsja-estlon Opposed on Oroaad that It Will Give Big: Cattlemen aa Advantage Over Small Holders. WASHINQTON. Feb. l-The senate com mittee on agriculture Is preparing to con sider a proposition looking to ths leasing of public landVfor grailng purposes. A large delegation of western cattlemen lo already here to support the measure. Ths effort will be to have a provlxlnn severing ths point Incorporated in the agri cultural appropriation bill as sn amend ment, the text of which has slready been proposed by Senator Burkett. . .- The amendment, authorise! the president to, from time to time, establish grsilng districts on the unreserved snd' unappro priated public lands by proclamation, and it proceeds: Thereupon the secretary of agriculture, under rules and regulations prescribed by him, shall execute, or cause to be exe cuted, the provisions of this act and all other la we effecting the graslng or use of public lands within such graslng districts, except such lawa as affect the surveying, prospecting, locating, appropriating, enter, ing, relinquishing, reconveylng. certifying or patenting of any lands within such graaing dlaLrlcUp appoint all officers neces eary for their' administration and protec. tlon, regulate their use for graving pur- f oses, protect them from depredation and "Jury, restore and Improve their graslng value. Issue permits to graxe live stock thereon fur periods of not more than ten years, giving preference to homesteaders, and. when practicable, toresttnt occupants of the range, who owned improved ranches or who have provided water for. live stock grased on the public lands, and charge and collect reasonable fees for such graslng permits, as la now done for the use ot forest Msorve land, products and resources baaed upon the graxing value of the land In each locality, - t . The auestlon will be made ' ths subject of a hearing by ths committee next Mon day. The measure will be opposed on the ground that If It becomes s law It will give the big cattlemen a monopoly of ths range to the exclusion of ths small holders. SHOUTS FAVORS COSTBACT FLAX Sneyrlsed that Stevens Is Not la Aroors with Ides. WASHINUTON. Feb. S. Chairman Shonls of the Isthmian Canal commission, un qualifiedly expressed himself in favor of building the canal by contract. He said that the great advantages accruing there from would be the witnessing of Immedlat; results. " "Contractors bsve solved the labor prob lem," he said. "They can get what they Women Need a natural laxative and tonic when troubled with lassitude, depression, nervousness or a general run-down condition of the system. Nature responds quickly, and regu larity is established by the use of mm want and we can only get what Is left. Then again, they could bring into play their vast combined experience, skill and organisation and this necessarily would effect ths completion of their work In much sooner time than If matters were allowed to go on as they are." Mr. Shonts sold hs wss much surprised to read the statement that Chlt, Engineer Stevens had Indicated his Intention to re sign should the work be done by contract. He said that Mr. Stevens always had favored the contract plan. SolJtrwbero. in boxes XOc. and 25c DECORATIOH9 FROM THE MIKADO Permission Asl'ed to Honor United State Civil Officials. WASHINGTON.

GUTHRIE, Okl., Feb. 8. (Special.) Although the governor of Nebraska issued a requisition more than a week ago and it was honored by Governor Frank Frants of Oklahoma, yet Samuel J. Owen, a Nebraska traveling salesman out of Omaha, Is being held in the Oklahoma county Ja.ll st Oklahoma City on a charge of wife abandonment, alleged to have been committed in Nebraska. After be ing arrested Owen began a habeas corpux action before District Judge Bur well In Oklahoma City and the case against him was dismissed. He was Immediately re arrested, however, on the warrant which Governor Frants Issued or. the Nobrasaa requisition, providing for Owen's return to Nebraska for trial. Owen, however, was not to be thwarted in his attempts to prevent removal to Nebraska. He has now appealed to the Oklahoma supreme cpurt and asks . his release from Jail on habeas corpus. In his petition to the supreme court Owen claims that he is being Illegally held and was Illegally arrested, and maintains there is no such crime on Jho Nebraska statute as that with which he la charged. He Is fighting the enforcement of the governor's requisition and has employed prominent attorneys to fight the case frr him. Another charge that Owen makes is that the governor of Oklahoma never saw the requisition from Nebraska, but that It was honored snd the warrant was is sued by the secretary of state, acting in the governor's absence. His hearing in the supreme court .will coma up during an adjourned sesslpn which begins hi; re on February It.
