Eni.rd t the postoffics In Tonopah si second class matter. Official Paper for Ceuatr f Sfr saa Tow af Toaaeaa THE JAPANESE MENACE. , A special eonjrressionoiil eominittee is in session, at Naeramento for the purpose oof inu'stiifating the iU''ti"'" f -'apani'se im migration to this country an thin- general situation as regards the Japanese here. The investigation has developed nothing that has not heen generally realized in the west of lute years that the rapid increase of the Japanese population hern is a menace to the nation. If this increase in population is allowed to continue there can he no doulit that within a Inief period of years the Orientals will be in control of the whole nf tin' agricultural industry west of the Mississippi river. The situation in California can well he a warning to the re maining western states. In Southern California the Japanese control the vegetable growing and distributing industry. They have forced white men from the business and today dictate the price of vege tables in Southern California markets, with the result ttha South ern Californian's have learned to their sorrow that of all profit eers the Japanese profiteer is the most to be despised. And the sit uation in Central and Northern California is even more critical. The Japanese control great tracts of land and are annually extending their holdings by the thousands of acres despite the California anti alien laud law. The method of getting around the law is simple The land is held in the names of American bom Japanese the father, who is prevented from owning real property, purchases the land he wants and places it in the name of his son, though that son may be but a few months of age. Statistics show that a child is born in every Japanese family in America every year, so the crop of prospective Japanese laud holders in 'America is plentiful. It is to be hoped that the congressional committee will arrive at some solution of the problem, sonic means of doing away with the Japanese menace. ;0 DISAPPOINTED DEMOCRATS. A lot of disappointed democrats who attended the San Fran cisco convention are returning to their homes in various parts of the country vainly trying to keep up their courage and present an outward appearance of satisfaction over the result of the convention, thie finds them in Tonopah everywhere, on the streets and in the hotel lobbies. They are whistling hard, like a umall boy who has just doueii something he shouldn't have done and fears detection any moment. They are whistling to keep their courage up, for their spines are growing cold. The League of Nations issue they say is more paramount than the personality of the candidate. Talking confidentially they doubt the enthusiasm of Governor Cox for the sacred covenant. Men at tached lo the Wilson chariot but with eyes on the Cox band wagon are now skeptical about the potency of the League as a campaign issue. Already signs are seen, of the Wilson machine going to pieces. The l'rcsident himself Wants to make certain of the aland of Gov ernor Co and lias arranged to confer with him in Washington. O- .. HOOVER S STATEMENT. i : Wc jnay look for many personal and political statements during the course of the presidential campaign, but it is safe to sav that none of them will possess more significance or have a more im portant bearing on the election than the declaration of Herbert Hoover, in which he unqualifiedly endorses the nomination of Sen ator Warren (i. Harding by the n publican party. - There are many reasons for this, but the principal one is that Mr. Hoover's judgment carries so much wcightt. He occupies a unique position in the esteem ot ttlie American people. lie is-not only a man who has accomplished great things, but he is regarded fls a man -whose patriotism rrss above personal and politij'ariAeouNidojatious." People-may differ about Mr. Hoover, as thy may differ about any man who is conspicuous in puhlic life, lint all will agree that his service to this country and to "humanity has been of great value. The great army of Americans stranded in Knrope at the outbreak of the war can testify to this, not to speak of the thousands of French and Helgian women ami children who were rescued from starvation through his resolute courage and well-directed ability. It stands to reason that people have confidence in him, and when he declares in favor of Senator Harding they will attach an excep tional importance to the testimony. .tJ . .. 0 , the cost of living is three times as high, and the democratic national platform blames it all on the world war. When you get where you can't get away with it. it's a good thing to have a goat handy, . : l'rcsident Wilson says the republicans are trying to isolate the I'nitcd States, but everybody knotfs that the nation's chief apostle of 'T'solation is Mr. Wilson himself.
