Entered at the Postofflce in BACK HOME WITH THE JAPS. , There Is probably no one item that is commanding the atten tion of the public more closely than the anti-Japanese sentiment on the Pacific coast and to the American there is no type of humanity so despisable as the Japanese who are coming to this country by the thousands, and who are doing; more to ruin the welfare of labor on the coast than all other classes of foreigners in the United States. Some sort of legislation should be enacted without undue delay to put a stop to the influx of those people as well as to un load the Japanese population we have. Matters have gotten to a stage where something must be done to relieve the situation. It is not a time for heated agitation on the part of orators of the radical type. There is, on the contrary, a cry ing demand for the conservative element to get down to business and r enact such legislation as will rid the Pacific coast and In fact the en tire union, of Japanese. This can be accomplished by the use of good judgment, and thereby not involve the United States in a war with Japan. War is undesirable and should always be avoided when possible and In this instance there seems no good reason why anti-Japanese legisla tion should culminate in a bloody co'nflict. It is the plain duty of American citizens to protect themselves against any undesirable race let it be Japanese, Chinese or Hin dus; and the better class of Japanese representatives of Japan's government must readily concede that the situation Is one which should be solved along lines of conservative legislation. Japan is fully aware that most of her subjects in the United States are an undesirable class, and she should see it as a clearly defined duty she owes the wortd, to enter Intd any treaty which will put a stop to fur ther Immigration of her subjects to America, and to aid in ridding , the United States of the thousands of Japs now within our borders. ANOTHER BULLETIN ARGUMENT (?) "Do the Tonopah people who are opposing county division re member what many of them said when going fifty-two miles to Bel mont, at that time the county seat. Didn't every mother's son , of them, singly and collectively, swear by all the gods of war the dis tance was too far for them to go in order to transact business at the county capital and with one accord start an agitation for its re moval to a- more central point? Now these same people ask the In habitants of southern Nye to continue to travel twice that distance when compelled by business to visit Tonopah." Rhyollte Bulletin. ' Ye gods! What an argument! Try again, brother; try again. When the coanty seat of Nye county was situated at Belmont there was no rattroad connecting it with other towns and the mode of travel was. by wagon. Even the automobile had not made its advent into the desert. Then again at the time the county seat was re moved the population of Belmont aggregated some forty people, . while the residents of Tonopah numbered some 6000. i ." v' . A number of Tonopah people, who, have gone to Pioneer and are among the heavy investors of that camp are strongly opposed to the county division -tfffair and state that they will fight against any such measure wMch may be Introduced into the legislature. RENO AND THE DIVORCE LAW. - Reno made a strong fight against the new divorce law which was' defeated in the senate. Well, why shouldn't they? Whatever Reno want should be granted for they are always out for the right, and it would be a bowling shame for the legislature to deprive attorneys of that thriving city from making an honest livelihood. Never mind the disgrace the present law Is to the state. The only fact to he considered Is that the sole practice of a number of Reno's legalites would be considerably decreased, and then they would have to study law for a living. Cruel legislatures. ' The Ren Anti-Gambling league had better save their postage stamps and kindly refrain from sending this office any more " of their literature the junk goes Into the waste basket. This paper is on record for "the lid off in Nevada." It is not our desire to en ter that 'psalin-singing, calamity-shouting aggregation at present. Let them rim the churches, and the people who so desire to take a smile and stake a dollar on a game of chance . certainly have the right to do so without any interference on the part of this bunch of "holy ones" who think they have a mission in life. Gambling was conducted U this state before this crowd of haloed curbstone poli ticians ever thought of coming to Nevada and If they do not like the way Nevada conducts itself why, move on. There are other states. Speaker Oiffeu'a make-believe ravings has caused an injury to this state la the east that will take years to repair. It Is nauseat ing even to the people of his own county. The Democratic cen sure of the nn who has made a burro of himself throughout the sagebrush !ad Is severe. Glffen's crown of "glory" Is now worn up side down labeled "little me." Nevada leglaUtora will auk the president to please open and Maintain our ldl mint at Carson, and before he would have time lo answer he to gtvea a great "upper cut" la the Jaw. It Is better to pat a maa the ahoaldrr when you wish to accomplish some Rood tbaa to go after alas la a boisterous and harsh manner. Why doa't the legislature waka up to real economy and do some thing toward Making Nevada's school fund a godsend to our farm ing eontlngMt? lgislatloa of this sort would navo a teadaacy to provo to voIt that our lawmakers are in dead earaeat about being KMsnonilr.

SUBSCRIPTION Three months $ 3.50 One month , 1.25 One week 36 must be paid in advance. TO SUBSCRIBERS. Parties who do not receive their papers, or who have any cause of complaint, will oblige The Bonanza by notifying this office. Tonopah as second class matter. Speaker GIffen will go back to the "nut pines," and then un sought and forgotten. With the recent snow storms disagreeable as they are Ne vada's sheep raisers can look Into the future with that smile that don't wear off. Evidently Oregon wants to be In the limelight. It has intro duced a Japanese resolution prohibiting Japanese, Hindus and Chinese from entering Uncle Sam's domain. NEVADA ROADS BEING WATCHED FOR FUGITIVE BISHOP, Feb. 5. The two toll roads leading across the mountains from Inyo county to Nevada are be ing guarded tonight by deputies arm ed with warrants for the arrest of A. A. Stanton, representing San Francisco capitalists, who took a bond on the Monster mine near Big Pine about three months ago and this morning disappeared, leaving many angry creditors. Stanton is most wanted by J. P. Fitting, associ ated with Charles M. Schwab,, who alleges embezzlement, and this morning secured a warrant for Stan ton's arrest. Stanton sent his wife and son north to Mlna today on the train, but, realizing he was watched, sec retly secured two horses, and, with a guide, took to, the hills, presumably headed for Nevada. Within half an hour after his disappearance Fitting secured a warrant and urged Con stable Logan to take up the trail. The nearest road from Big Pine to Nevada Is across the White moun tains over the Goldfleld toll road. Heavy snowfalls In the mountains, however, have completely blocked traffic. A hleh Wind accomnanlari hv snow flurries, it Is believed, has caused the riders to go astray. f Stanton has had many men em ployed on the Monster mine taking out ore and shipping this to the smel ter at Keeler. He kept' the returns for the ore, neglecting to pay his bills and refused, also, to rnnie through with the royalties on the ore due Fitting and Schwab.
