ANTI-JAPANESE ACTION.
TEXAS INCIDENT. By Telegraph.—Press Assn—Copyright. New York, Jan. 6. A message from Harlingen (Texas), reports that a committee of citizens met two Japanese families who arrived to take up land in the Rio Grande Valley purchased through the Japanese agent in California, and pointed out that their presence was not desired, and asking them to leave forthwith. A similar incident occurred earlier in the week. The Japanese departed without protesting. A Sacramento telegram states that an Act forbidding alien ownership of land and a resolution memorialising the United States Senate not to make a treaty with Japan weakening the existing antiJapanese -law has been introduced in the Californian legislature. These measures are a result of reports on the pending Japanese-American treaty -which contemplates naturalisation of Japanese residents in the United States.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable .Assn.
