"Washington, D. C., Feb. 4.
—J. N. Gillett, Governor of Califor
nia: What Is the rumor tMat the
California legislature has -passed a
bill excluding the Japanese children
from the public schools? This is the
most offensive bill of all, and in my
judgment is clearly unconstitutional
and we should at once have to test It
in the courts. Can it be stopped in
the legislature or by veto?
"Theodore Roosevelt."

group of mines, that is, the mines
