Atlanta, Ga, July 1.—In his inau- gural address to the state legislature Governor Hoke Smith had the folloy- ing to say on the negro question: “Any plan. for the negroes which fails to recognize the difference be- tween the white and black races will fail. The honest student.of history knows that the-negro had full oppor- tunity for generations to develop be- fore the days of slavery; that the negro race was improved by slavery and that the majority of the negroes in this state have ceased to improve since slavery. Few .have been helped by learning from books. All have been helped who have been taught or made to work. “The negro child should be taught manual labor and how ‘to live. The negro teacher should be selected less by book than by character examina- tion. The negro sthool should help the negro, not injure him. Racial dif- ferences cannot be overcome by mis- guided philanthropists.” TEN LIVES ENDANGERED. Lifesaving Crew Save Occupants of Capsized Launch. « Milwaukee, July 1.—The capsizing of the gasoline launch Ideal, owned by Howard Williams, a glassblower, in the harbor endangered the lives of ten passengers, including men, women and children, who were saved by the lifesaving crew after two of the chil- dren had gone under for the second time. .

R Chambers of Commerce Address American Bodies. FEAR BAD EFFECT ON TRADE Business Men of United States Asked to Use Their Best Efforts to Secure to Japanese in This Country the Rights Guaranteed by Treaty. Tokio, July 1.—At a joint meeting uf seven chambers of commerce here it was resolved to address the prin- cipal chambers of commerce in Amer- lca as foliows: “It has always been a matter of profound satisfaction to thé people of Japan to witness the constant growth of cordial relations between our two countries and of our community inter- ests in the fields of trade and com- merce. “But since last year the people in a section of your country have unfor- tunately acted in a manner calculated to prejudice the legitimate rights of Japanese people, who have been fre- quently subjected td unjust and humil- jating treatment at the hands of a lawless element prevailing there. The right of education has been denied them; their houses have repeatedly been attacked and their property de- stroyed without the least cause or provocation, with the result that not only have the treaty ri~hts of the Japanese been wantonly dispegarded, but their persons and property also have been exposed to serious dangers. Frequent Occurrence Regretted. “It is to be extremely regretted that such unfortunate incidents should be allowed to occur so frequently, as it is feared that unless they are speed- ily stopped the ill feeling which our countrymen are now constrained to harbor against the people of a single section in America may eventually have an unhappy effect upon the de- velopment of the commercial rela- tions between the two nations, for while the United States is a good cus- tomer for our natural products Japan is also increasing her demand for American goods and promises to be- come one of the most important mar- kets for your ever éxpanding and prosperous industries. Should - the progress of trade and cpmmerce be tween the two nations become - ob- structed as the result of the unwar- rantable action of a-small section of your population the loss sustained by the two countries would be incalcula- ble. “We therefore venture to address you and express our views upon the situation, confident in the hope that they will be shared by you and that you will, considering the matter upon the right principles of national inter- course and the mutual advantages of trade relations, do your best to speed- ily eliminate the present causes of discord.” The cnampers of COmMMerce hLave also addressed President Roosevelt as follows: Appeal to the President. “We have always watched with pro- found satisfaction the growing strength of the bonds. of traditional friendship between America and Ja- pan, coupled with the steady progress of the commerce between the two na- tions. It is, therefore, a source of deep regret and concern to learn of the actions so frequently reported since last year of a section of the community in San Francisco against Japanese residents there, whose per- sons and property have thus been ex- posed to seriods danger. While highly appreciating your unremitting efforts in the cawse of justice we humbly think that if such abuses are allowed to continue the development of com- merce based upon the friendly rela- tions of the two nations may be even- tually retarded. “We, the undersigned representa- tives of chambers of commerce, taking special interest in-the promotion of our mutual economic relations, are un- able to remain silent spectators of this state of affairs. We, accordingly, have addressed the principal cham- bers of commerce in America, inviting them to exert their best endeavors for the amelioration of the situation, re- lying at the same time upon your per- sonality and wisdom for a speedy and satisfactory solution of existing diffi- culties and we respectfully appeal to you for your friendly spirit.” TO BAR PROCESS SERVERS Rockefeller’'s Present Place of Abode Closely Guarded. New York, July 1.—Dispatches from Pittsfield, Mass., report that Mrs. E. Parmalee Prentice, who is at Onota farm for the summer, is entertaining her father, John D. Rockefeller, and the estate is under strong guard, pre- sumably to prevent Mr. Rockefeller being disturbed by process servers. The dispatches state that the lake front property is patrolled by a launch and that a reporter who drove out to the place, which he found guarded at all sides, was informed that he could not approach the house. Railroad Commission Enjoined. Asheyville, N. C, July 1—Federal Judge Pritchard has enjoined the North Carolina railroad commissioners from enforcing the reduced rate enact- ment of the last legislature pending a further hearing of the cases of the Southern Railway and the stockhdld- ers of the Atlantic Coast Line, which were referred to a master in chancery. MAY REMOVE DISCONTENT French Government Promulgates Wine Fraud Bill, Paris, July 1—The government has promulgated the wine fraud bill, Which- is designed to correct a num- ber of the abuses complained of by the discontented wine growers of the south of France. The bill, it is hoped, will go a long way towards removing the feeling of discontent in the re- cently disturbed districts. < The measure which has just bécome 8 law requires, among other things, that all growers make an annyal det- | the proposal laration &t the mayoralty of “thelr commune of the acreage, cultivation and total quantity of wine produced and in stock and whether it is intend- ed for sale or otherwise, the govern- ment being of the opinfon that when in possession of this information it will be in a position to keep track of the wine from the grower to the dealer and thus prevent watering or sugar- ing. Another clauge of the bill at first in- sisted on a supplementary tax of 65 francs per 100 kilos on sugar used in the manufacture of certain wines, but a number of deputies voted against and Finance Minister Calllaux announced that the govern- ment had decided to reduce the supple- mentary tax to 40 franes per 100 kilos, which was adopted. The measure also greatly restricts the market for aleo- hol produced from grapes and beets, which resulted in the introduction of a bill providing for an increase of the duties on petroleum with the object of stimulating the use of alcohol for il- luminating purposes. The finance minicter 1s also pre: pared, as an inducement for the wine growers to abandon grape growing in favor of other crops, to remit the land taxes in such cases for five years. EXPECT PROHIBITION LAW Georgla Jug Establishments Go Out of Business. Augusta, Gi., July L—As a result of the belief that the state legislature;- both branches of which are controlled by Prohibitionists, will at the present session pass a prohibition measure two of the largest potteries in the state, whose product was confined al- most exclusively to jugs for the liquor trade, have closed down their estab- lishments.— Since the legislature con- vened orders for more than 35,000 jugs have been cancelled and a woodwork- ing establishment having orders for bar fixtures worth $20,000° has re- ceived a telegram cancelling them.
