There are also twenty-five special purses of grand sweepstake prizes for the twenty-five contestants making. the best scores during the entiré contest, the largest of thege purses being $1000 and the smallest.$40, and amounting to $4000 in the aggregate.

SAYS MAGARTHUR Exclusion Leaders Refused to Go to White House, Declares Editor GIVEN INVITATION President’s Summons for a Conference Was Wisely Turned Down Continued From Page 1, Column 1 from him by act. For some time there has been feeling in Democratic circles that the | whole Schmitz administration had lost | its union labor following in the bet- | ter element, and that there might! be a chance for the party to form an alliance with the dissatisfied advocates | of Japanese exclusion. | In regard to this matter Macarthur refused to talk, declaring that he was 2 poor politician and had aiways de- clined to have anything to do with practical politics, but he did not hes tate to express his views on the ac- tion of Schmitz and the School Board | at the capital. DISOBEYED PRESIDENT 1 The labor editor intimated that the | city .efficials had done the very thing| that prominent labor leaders had somec | time before refused to de by declining | invitations from the President to at-| tend the conference In Washington. | Macarthur would not give the names | of those who had thus disobeyed the President's command, but by reference to the Japanese Exclusion League later | he left it to be presumed that the leaders of that organization were the | recipients of the |invitations. | For some time the wrath of the Jap- | anese Exclusion League over the man- ner in which Schmitz misrepresented conditions in California has been ap- parent. Macarthur said: “We have been working for years| to get the Asiatics excluded from this | another Congressional work s being undone. By a recent| act Congress placed in the hands of | the President power to administer the | immigration laws as he saw fit, when | it must have been apparent that soonet, | or later that power would have to pe| taken away from him. There are indi- | cations that the administration would | even favor a repeal of the Chinese ex clusion law. “I have no patience with representa conference with the President on a matter which so vitally affects the peo- ple as this Japanese matter does. | Whatever is done should be above| board. They say: ‘Oh, it's all right, | boys; we know, but we can’t tell, be- | cause we have promised the President not to.’ SCHMITZ IS A FOOL “I maintain that the people have a right to a voice in these matters. As to Schmitz and the other fellows, the | d——d fools didn't have sense enough | to stay at home when they could have | sent word to Roosevelt that he would have to deal with the Legislature of | California in the matter.

Of course, this school question is a minor matter comparéd with the immigration problem, but the principle is the same. 1 don’t know what motive Schmitz had in butting into the affair, but his ac tion has brought insult upon the people | of San Francisco. X “Some months ago I attended an Im- | migration conference in New York City | and while there was invited with sev- eral others to meet the President and discuss the probleths confronting the | country in regagd to the admission of | foreigners. It was stipulated that our conference was to be under the rose as is the custom with Roosevelt, and upon hearing of this I refused to have anything to do with it. “Not so long ago certain citizens of San Francisco were invited to attend the conference which was recently held | at the capital, but they declined. Then | came the invitation to the members of the Board of Education, and they went, and the Mayor went with them.” SCORES “COLONIAL POLICY” WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—The so- called colonial policy of the Govern- ment was bitterly denounced on the floor of the House ny Representative Clark of Florida today in connegtion with his resolution calling upon" the Secretary of War for a statement of the amount of money that the Philip- pine Islands have cost the United States. ‘He condemned the war with Spain as unnecessary anhd pronounced | tne purchase of the Philippines a “seri- ous blunder and a most grievous wrong.” In the course of his remarks he sald: When i purchased the islands and this allen | race wifh them the deed was nothing more or less than traffic in human beings, and it is no greater wrong for individuals to traffic fn humanity than it is for nations to make a bar- gain and sale of human beings. Within the last few days I have heard gen- tlemen on this flodr speak of our colonial pos- sessions. This smacks of empire. It breathes of imperlalism. Tt suggests rovalty. Tt does not in- dicate the simpliclty of repnblitan government, where every citizen is a eoverelgn, but it pro- duces vistons of kingly rule. * On motion of Payne of New York the resolution was laid on the table by a vote of 165 to 103.
