TOKIO, May 8.—The Yorozu Ohoho publishes an appeal to the Christian Japanese an<3 the Christians of Amer ica, In which It says: “It may be a small thing to dimin* herlt the Japanese in California, yet It Is of importance In that It causes a friendly nation to distrust America. The land law may succeed in erad icating the so-called evils of Oriental Immigration, yet It contains germ of greater troubles. Better put legality aovc- profit and love above legality. Such legality and mioh legislation are an offense against the law of love, wherefore the Japanese are rather more sorrowful than Indignant.” All our buyers back from New York.

Ham to be postmaster at Gainesville and the consequent turning down of Mrs. Helen D. Longstreet and Editor A. a. Hardy have aroused the most Intense interest in Georgia, and is be ing widely discussed to-day. The popular Impression was that Mrs. Longstreet likely would succeed herself, and If she did not. the plum would go to Mr. Hardy, who had the Indorsement of Congressman Bell of the Gainesville district. Mrs. Ham’s name never had been mentioned publicly in connection with the Gainesville postofflce, and her nomination was a complete surprise The biggest surprise of all in this presidential act, however, was the re- p.ort given out from the Postoffice Department to the effect that Mrs. Longstreet’9 administration of the Gainesville postoffice had been found unsatisfactory and inefficient. Report Called an Excuse. Her friends already are saying there is no sincerity in that report, but that It was made merely to con form with previous announcements from the White House to the effect that postmasters would not be re moved in any event, save where charges of inefficiency were made and sustained. Primary responsibility for the Presidential rejection of both Mrs. Longstreet and Mr. Hardy is laid at the door of E. T. Brown, of At lanta, who bitterly opposed Mr. Hardy and more or less passively opposed Mrs. Longstreet. Mr. Brown is a cousin of Mrs. Wilson and a frequent visitor at the White House. He is reported to be closer to the President than any other Georgian. His opposition to Mr. Hardy is based on partisan grounds, arising out of Mr. Hardy’s support of Mr. Underwood in the Georgia primary, and his opposition to Mrs. Long street upon the milder partisan grounds that she was a Roosevelt appointee and presumably more of a Republican than Democrat. Senator Smith Hesitates. The nomination of Mrs. Ham was announced Wednesday afternoon, notwithstanding the fact that Congressman Bell bad an engage ment with the President to-day to talk the Gaiflesville situation over. Mr. BeH conferred, more or less in dignantly. so it is reported, with Senator Hoke Smith last night, as to the unexpected nomination of Mrs. Ham. The Senator expressed great surprise that the matter had 35 c to 75 c Shadow Laces at 19 c Miss Elkins’Dog Lost; 'Billy' Hitt Seeks It Didn’t think we could do it!

The flat rejection of Congressman Bell’s recommendation for the post mastership in his home town has caused a tremendous flutter In Con gressional circles, and has aroused great interest in Georgia. For time immemorial, it has been customary for Congressmen to name, without dispute, their home postmasters. If the President is going to disregard this custom, what influence will a Congressman have un any appoint ments within his district? That is the big question Representatives are asking themselves to-day, and which thousands of Georgians are pausing to hear answered. Many are taking the rejection of Hardy to mean that President Wil son is determined not to appoint to office in Georgia any one who op posed him in the Presidential pri mary, and that If Congressman Bell had named a pro-Wilson man his recommendation might have been fol lowed. Made a Gallant Fight. Mrs. Longstreet has made a gallant fight to retain her position. The Postofflce Department, the White House and the Capitol have, been flooded with letters and telegrams in her favor. It was thought that she might lose the office through politics, but It never was suspected In Georgia that inefficiency would be charged against her. Congressman Bell will make an ef fort to change the presidential mind in respect of the Gainesville postofflce, but the impression is that he will fail to move the White House occupant. Mrs. Ham is the widow of the late H. W. J.
