Irish concerning the Japanese question in the Oakland public schools. It was as follows: San Francisco, Dec. 11, 1306. The Oakland Board of Education, Gentlemen: It is stated in the public press that a proposition will be submitted to you to expel the Japanese from the public schools In your charge, and compel their attenflance at a special school. As a citizen and taxpayer of Oakland I respectfully protest against such policy.

The State law on the subject of separate schools is persistently represented as compulsory, which it is not. That law is permissory, and its application to the schools of Oakland is a matter of expediency and not of statutory necessity. Is it expedient to follow the lead of the San Francisco school board and add to the embarrassment of a situation that may have the greatest consequences. Our own colored people, the negroes, attend the same schools as the whites and no issue is raised as to color or age. Is is expedient to treat the people of a friendly nation to which we look for expansion of our commerce with indignitv by denying them privileges accorded to our own colored population? I have made some inouiries htiA finA T7 ME EMAM please you and always be a joy in your own home.

The largest and finest line of pianos at lowest 'prices and easiest terms is our Xmas greeting to the people of Oakland and vicinity. Don't miss this opportunity, spread the news far and wide tell all your friends and neighbors of this great cut price sale.
