Part of the governor's message is as follows: "For many years a very grave prob lem, little understood in the East, has confronted California a problem which has been viewed with appre hension by the people of this state.

Problem Has Become Acute. "Of late years our problem from another angle has become acute and the agitation has been continuous in the last decade in reference to our agricultural lands until final affirma tive action in attempted solution be came Imperative. This attempted so lution is found in the action of our legislature in the passage of the alien land bill. In the phraseology of this bill, in those whom it affects, in Its scope and in its purpose we be lieve we are within our legal and our moral rights, and that we are doing what is imperatively demanded for the protection and preservation of the state.

"Hurry up and complete the re clamation projects under way and be sure you have competent men in the field," was the advice James J. Hill, the railroad magnate, gave to Secre tary Lane at a reclamation hear ing at Washington. He reiterated that it cost the reclamation service more than twice what it cost other services and private enterprises to re claim the desert land. "That is another reason why the government should go out of the busi ness," said Mr. Hill. "He added that he was "burdened" with complaints by settlers on the Milk river and the St. Mary's project in Canada about the delay for years in pushing the work to completion. Mr. Hill concluded with an appeal for help for the settlers and praise for Montana as a land adaptable to reclamation projects. DEN0UNCEPRESENTMETH0DS Resolutions Adopted by Minnesota "U" Faculty.

TEN KILLED IN PATHJJFCTOl Forty Persons Are Injured in Nebraska Tornado. SEWARD SUFFERS THE MOST Eight Fatalities Occur There and Damage to Property Is Esti mated at $100,000. Omaha, May 16.—Reports show that the destructive tornado which formed in the southern part of Seward coun ty took a toll of ten lives, injured forty persons and destroyed property valued at $250,000. The greatest de struction was at Seward, where eight persons were killed and fourteen in jured. At Seward a much greater disas ter was averted by the fact that the tornado crossed only a comparatively small part of the town, instead of sweeping across the more densely populated portioin two blocks south. The property loss in that city is es timated at $100,000. The tornado apparently originated southwest of McCool Junction and gathering force as it moved to the northeast struck Seward with full force. All telegraphic and telephone lines were demolished in the path of the storm. Until the wires are repaired the full extent of the damage and the number of casualties will not be defi nitely known. The storm crossed this city near the southern limits, but its strength had been so far spent that the dam age was nominal. This fact, however, did not prevent Omaha generally from seeking refuge in cellars and other places considered tornado proof. The experience of Easter Sunday taught them to consider seriously the approach of ominous looking clouds and their appearance in the southwest was sufficient to set everybody to seeking an avenue of escape.
