THURSDAY, ' APRIL 24, 1913
Petitions are being circulated
for an extra session of the legis
lature to deal with the freight rate
question.. It ought to be settled
without an extra session. Only
a few members of the legislature
are competent to handle the mat
ter as well as it could be handled
by a committee of business men
of the state.
The situation in Uuitornia is
getting to be troublesome to say
the least. The citizens of that
state are anxious to pass a law
that will protect the interests of
the state as they find it from ex
perience and yet it is necessary
for them to proceed carefully and
not do anything which would be
in conflict with the relations of
our country with that of another
rresiaent nson s letter wa.
timely anl under ordinary coiwji
tiins would have had a soothing
effect, but the feeling on the Pa
cine coast is storng in favor of thi
protection offered in the proposed
law that decided action niav lie
taken. The authorities at Wash
ington are keeping in close
touch with every movement ami
the Secretary of State niav confer
personally with the state author
mes. J he Associated l'ress sent
out the following statement last
night:
President Wilson telegraphed
Governor Johnson, of California
asking whether anti-lien legisla
tion could be held up until Seere
tary llryan could go to California
personally to explain the federal
government's position and urge a
readjustment of the controversy.
The Presilent's telegram was
in response to Governor John
son s message yesterday that Cali
fornia desired to co-operate with
the federal government to avoid
international difficulties. The
President's telegram read :
President's Telegram
"Thank you for your patriotic
telegram. We find it so difficult
from this distance to understand
fully the situation with regard
to the sentiments and circum
stances lying back of the pend
ing proposition concerning the
ownership of land in the state
that I venture to inquire whether
itw oull be agreeabel to voti and
the legislature to have the Secre
tary of State visit Sacramento for
the purpose of counselling with
yo uand the members of the leg
islature and co-operating with
you and them in framing a law
which would meet the views of
the people for the state and yet
leave untouched the international
obligations of the Uitend States."
This telegram was duplicated
to the President of the Senate and
Speaker of the California Assem
bly. At the White House it was
felt that conflicting advices over
situation made it practically ne
cessary for a representative of
the administration to explain the
government's exact position in
person. The officials said there
was no feeling that the Presi
dent's suggestion would not be
welcome because Governor John
son's telegram yesterlay was re
garded as expressing a desire for
the fu'lest co-operation between
the state and the federal government.
