He assured the secretary that the settlers did not want to evade any ust debt, but felt that the cost of such work, which was largely of an experi mental nature, should not be Included In the sum of their debt, He said that settlers on the North (Platte project were confident that with the co-opcratlon of the sccretury and the department they would be able to make a great success of the project In the fu ture, but potnted out that to bring that success the settlers should be given more time and It should be extended over a period of twenty-five years.

Mrs. Carson Walker. th Three Doctors' " orchard, and that of J. F Record are most promising. Other fruit Is untouched by the pest Orchard, lsts are not agreed upon the best means of exterminating the worm, winter spraying and the different solutions having their advocates. That the matter will be handled in a diferent manner from this time on, however, Is sure. M province is to approve or disapprove the law as presented. Our people as rep resented In the legislature have over whclmlnKly expressed their desire for the present alien land law bill. "The vote In the senate was K lit I and In the assembly, Tt to 3. With such unanimity of opinion, even did 1 hold other' views, t would feel It my plain duty to sign the bill, unless some abso lutely controlling necessity commanded contrary action. Apparency no such con trolling necessity exists. ' It Is with tho highest respect for your self and tho president thnt 1 feel my duty to my stato compels me to approve the action of the legislature. "HIRAM V. JOHNSON. "Governor of California." J. sisted upon preserving with our na tional government. "The treaty of 1011 with Japan, In reference to the citizens and subjects of each country, provides that thev slinll havo 'liberty to own, or lease, or occupy houses, manufactories, wnrehotrcs and shops; to employ agents of their choice; to lease land for residential and com mercial purposes and generally to do any thing Incident to or necessary for trade upon the same terms as native citizens or subjects, submitting themselves to tho laws and regulations there established.' "We assume that the right of Japan ese to own renl estate property for the purposes described, Is absolute In our stato and we seek to deal only with our agricultural lands. We embody the treaty In our law and we add to It permission to lease our ngrlculturai lands, for the period of three years. Good FnltH Preserved. "Where such extraordinary care has been exercised to preserve honor and good faith. In the very words of the con tract made by tho protesting nation, and to do more by authorizing leases of agri cultural lands, It would seem that we ought not to be open to any accusation of violation of treaty rights, or desire to entrench upon that which belongs ulona to the national government, or which might become a matter of International policy. "By the law adopted wo offei no of fense; wo make no discrimination. The rffrns? and discrimination nro contained, It Is claimed, In the use of the words, 'eligible to citizenship,' and in making a distinction between thoso who are eli gible to citizenship and those who aro not. We do not mention the Japaneso or any particular race. The constitution of California of 1879 made Hb distinction, and' there never has been protend or ob jection. U. S. Statutes Followed. The naturalization laws of the United States, long since without demur from any nation, determined who were and were not eligible to citizenship. If in vidious discrimination ever were made In this, regard the United States made It when the United States declared who were and who were not eligible to citi zenship, and when we but follow and depend upon the statutes of the United States and their determination as eligi bility to citizenship, we cannot be ac cused of indulging in invidious discrim ination. "May I venture to call to your atten tion the immigration law now pending In congress, which passed both houses of the last congress, where apparently certain classes, who shall be excluded from our country, aro described as 'per sons who cannot become eligible undei existing laws to become citizens of the United States.' "At this very moment the national leg lslature, without protest. Indeed, tt Is published In California by express con sent Is using the terms that are claimed in California law to be offensive and discriminatory. Situation Aente on Const. "At least three states In the union have In the past enacted laws similar to the contemplated law of California and the enactments of thorn other states have been without objection or protest That the protest Is now made In respect to California, but emphasizes the acute nesa of the problem confronting Call, fomla, and demonstrates that California is differently viewed than other states of the union, and that if discrimination exists It Is discrimination against Call, fornla. "We Insist that Justly no rffense can be taken byany nation to this law and more particularly does this seem to us clear In the .instance of a nation like Japan, that by Its own law prevents acquisition of land by aliens. It is most respectfully submitted that, after all, the question Is not whether any offense has been taken, but whether Justly it should be taken. I olce, I think, the sentiment of the majority of the legislature of this state when I say that if It had been be lieved that offense could JusMy be taken by any nation to the proposed law, that law would not have been enucted. Muat See Itorllr Blind. "We of California believe firmly that In our legislative dealings with this alien land question we have vlo'ated abso lutely no treaty rights; we have shown no shadow of discrimination; we have given to no nation the right to be Justi fied In taking offense, So believing, with a strong reliance on the justice and righteousness of our cause and with due deference and courtesy and proper con sideration for the feelings and the views of others, we had hoped the authorities at Washington would have seen the ques tion as we In thts state have been forced to see as we muat see It or bt blind. "And so, with all courtesy, the state of California feels It's bounden duty to citizens to do that which the Inter ests of Its people demand; that which the conscience of its people approves; that which violates no treaty rights, that which presents no discrimination and that which can give no cause for of fense. People Kmur I.mv. "You have suggested to me delav. but ! this question !was very earnestly and I fully presented iby you to our legislature and the legislature determined to proceed.
