THE MASK DROPS | After crowding in of editorials by Japs, columns of eulogies of Japs, not to mention whole sections of "acpi eg for by Japs, the P.-I. Jap edition, issued y, just couldn’t find room for the most wonderful editorial ever penned by a Jap. The editorial was printed a short time ago in the New World, a Japanese paper of San Francisco. The Star reprints it today, urging that it be read and considered in connection with the P.-I. Jap eulogies. It follows: “We should advance and not recede. To stop is to retreat. Whether in war or business this holds true. While we push forward boldly the enemy has no chance to form plans. We have a saying that the gods never curse a successful man. A determined spirit will crush a rock, we also say. These maxims are suitable for the present situ- ation. “We who are here in America, where so many anti-Japanese parties exist, must have this sort of determination. What can Phelan do? What can Inman do? Both are but ordinary men. Their ability is nothing unusual, Their influence is only that of a crowd. “When we of the Yamoto race rise with a mighty resolve, their ition will be as futile as an attempt to sweep the sea with a Tr “It is only because there is so much fear and anxiety on the part of us Japanese that they think they can undertake such big things. “Even if photograph marriages should be pro- hibited, we cannot be stopped from leaving our descendants on this American continent. Even if woman comes, it is not pos- of our Yamoto race continent by marriages with Americans, with French, with In- dians and with negroes; especially since there are already 100,000 Japanese here and 5,000 children are born annually. “Phelan and Inman cannot stop this great force. What stupidity! What ignorance of a mighty force! “Again let us consider the land law. Supposing that the ideas of Phelan and Inman were carried out, and we Japanese were prohibited from owning or cultivating land. We could find some way to continue farming and make a good living as pro- ducers. If we cannot conveniently do so in Cali- fornia we shall go to other states and devise some plan. Even the laws of California are not forever unchangeable. “The day will come when the real strength of the Japanese will make a clean sweep of all laws. “Even the kaiser’s empire was destroyed when its time came. What can Phelan and Inman, whose influence is less than a drop in the great ocean of world tendency, do to stop the forward movement of our Yamoto race? “We will say: ‘Let there be a hurdred or a thousand anti-Japanese movements; let laws be made; let laws be amended. Foolish agitators will have their day; wise ones will some time raise their voices. All these are temporary, but our great racial activities are eternal. All we have to do is to stand firm on the single point of justice, unite our strength and move forward energetically in various quarters of the business world.’” Bill Carlisle, Bandit, in Seattle; He Writes toChief “Bill” Carlisle, the nae who | “Hello, Chief! ry | peaceful city, so conaped trom the Wrowing #ete | tanks with thes.
