"If the nnny bill is uot passed,
an extra session of Congress is in
evitable." This information from
a roliablo source in Wnxhiugtou
is the only ray of hope that cau be
held up to tho advocates of legis
lation for Hawaii, either special or
general. Congress has reached
the rushing point peculiar to the
Inst days of a short session. All
efforts nro centered upon tho ab
solutely necessnry measures aud
Hawaii is relegated to tho back
ground. The latest do'patches
spotlit of the probability of a com
promise being roaohed on both
tho army and tho canal bilk.
The recognized opposition of
Speaker Heed to admin iatralirn
measures uuqutstionahly compli
catos tho situation and it is ex
tremely doubtful whether tho par
ty whip will overcome tho faction
al whippven at tho last moment,
Ouo statomont mny bo made
with poaitivo assurance, that the
officials aud leading men in
Washington aro uot diaposed to
class Hawaii with Porti llico and
the othor Spariuli territory nnd
there is no danger of discrimina
ting tariffs against Hawaii.
Should such a lneasurn by ny
chance mn the gam tlot of Con
gress, tho President's veto would
certainly follow. Futtbonmro
tho incoming Congress will bo
Bolidly republican nnd fully in
sympathy with the lulmiiiibluition
policy. While ilauiiii has gained

ON CHINESE PERMITS
Solicitor General Renders Opinion on
Local Affair,
Chinese Who Resided Here Hay Return
Aug. 12 Named as Date When Ex
clusion Begins.
Washington, Fob. 22. Solici
tor General J. K. Richards has
rendered an opinion,' which has
b-en approved by tho Attorney
General, in which ho holds that
tho Socretary of the Troasury has
authority to admit to tho Hawaii
an Islands such Ohineso persons
as departed therefrom undor the
regulations of the existing gov
ernment allowing them to return,
but who would bo excluded by the
extension to tho islauds of the
laws and reflations now opera
tive within the United States.
After reviewing tho hintory of
tho legislation aud tho decisions of
tho courts ou tho subject the Soli
citor General says in part:
An alien readout s not an
alten immigrant. Under our
alien immigration acts it has bion
held that au alien who has resid
ed in (his country without becom
ing naturalized and who departs
with the intention of returning is
uot tn bo deemed an immigrant
whan he first entered tho country.
Applying this wholes mo doc
trine to tho caps submitto'l, the
Chinese who, uudor the former
government of the Hawaiian Isl
ands, beenmo domiciled iu the
islands, acquired certain rights,
among which wbb tho right to
leave tho islands for a temporary
ptirpo'o and return. It is not to
bo presumed that Congress,
which recognizes tho right
of such Ohinoso to bo and
remain in the islands, intended to
iuterfeio with the incidental right
of returning to the islands after a
temporary absence. Ohiuoe
laboreis have been for years nb
solutely prohitiitt-d from comiuu
into tho United States; vet nil the
timo wo have pomrittod aud now
permit tho Oliiuoxo laborers law
fully within the United States to
leave this country for a temporary
purpose and return.
Acooidiugly, iu viow of tho
manifest injustice of the interfer
ing with a right incidental to law
ful residence iu the inlands, the
words "no further immigration"
should bo construed so as to
apply only to actual additional
immigration into tho islands,
namely, tho coming of Chineeo
into the islands for the first time
after annexation, and not to tho
return to tho islands of Ohineso
who lmvo a lawful residence there
and aro simply exorcising tho
rocognized right of returning,
after a temporary absence, to their
business aud their homes.
Tlioro aro, howovor, twomoio
questions which nro still in tho
air and upon which Alexander
Robertson, who has boen hero as
attorney for tho Chinese, expects
to have a deoisiou soon. Thoso
aro tho admission of female rela
tives of residents and of "travel
ers," as the Chinese aro termed
who have come to tho islands for
torrn of not more than six
raonthb on business, and who un
der the old laws had to givo bondB
of 8500 for their doparturo at the
end of that timo. Taking all tho
questions into consideration,
thore aro 482 Ohinoso who aro to
bo affected by tho rulings. Thero
seems to be a hcliof that the entiro
problem will bo solved to tho satia
fno'ion of tho Ohineso. Of tho
entiro number tlioro nro very few
who would bo clashed as laborers.

Arthur A. Wildor, law partnor
of Mr. Robertson, haB rocoived
tho following telegram. It indi
cates that tho decision covers the
points mentioned as undecided iu
the press telegram above.
Besides, it shows that permits
to Ohineso issued evon up to tho
raising of the ilag on August 12
are held valid. Ohiof Justice
Judd'a di oision only went bb far
iib tn hold that tho American law
would have been mado rotroncliva
by a construction ruliug out por
mits issued prior to July 7, the
date of the approval of the New
lniids resolution.
Mr. Robertson's tolegrnm is as
fol'own:
"Washington, Fob. 22
RiohaMs' opinion today holds re
turn permits good to August 12.
Laborers and travelers rejected.
Opii i n will bo followed by

Inspector Joshua K Brown re
ceived no advices. Mr. Wilder
has shown him Mr. Robertson's
telegram. Mr. Brown says the
news will not affect the status
hero uutil ho has received official
adviceB and instructions Thoro
aro about 110 rejected Ohineso at
tho quarantine station awaiting
this decision. Mr. Drown could
not say, offhand, what was tho
proportion of holders of roturn
permits among the uumbo.

ning tomnriow night, a session of
Congress will bo hold almost un
interruptedly until the adjourn

poPBible, too, Connreas may ro

foronoou of Saturday, the day of
adjournmont, and wliilo it is quite
possiblo to iiuish all absolutely
needful work, to do so will requiro
expedition aud the improvement
of all available time.

A skillfully designed wheel Is not only
a useful object, it is also an aesthetic
creation. Have you ever thought how
