Chinese Permitted to Return toHawaii

We rejoice that a grievous hard-ship

¬

has been prevented CertainChinese visiting China had obtain-ed

¬

from the Hawaiian governmentaccording to law special permits toreturn here U S Agent J KBrown treated these permits as hav ¬

ing been invalidated by the annex ¬

ation of Hawaii to the United StatesHe directed these men to be refusedadmission This was an extremehardship Their caso was carriedto the Chief Justice who decidedin favor of the Chinese His deci-sion

¬

is stated at considerable lengthand carefully reasoned in a mannerwhich must oommand respect atWashington His principal positionis that the application to Hawaii ofthe United StateB laws could not beintended to be retrospective in theabsence of specific provision forbeing soj wherefore a previouslyiBsuod permit to return bore con-

tinued¬

valid

It would be a manifest injusticeto exclude from their homes hereChinese who left with an official assurance that thoy gould return OurChief Justice is to be congratulatedon being able to frustrate so griev-

ous¬

a wrong and ou having donehis work in so a masterly a mannerIn condemning tho proposed injus-tice

¬

we express no opinion therebyas to the propriety of the UnitedStates statutes restricting the ad-

mission¬

of Cbineee Only the retro-spective

application in Hawaii isobjeoted to The Friend
