United States Judge Nelson, a. Duluth,
| Mimi, recently declared unconstitutional
the Chinese registration law enacted last
Nay by congress. The case was one of
habeas corpus proceedings in the arrest Of
a Chinanan Of seven years residence in
the United States. TIE attorney for the
Chinaman demanded his release on the
ground that 1t was contrary TO the consti-
tuition Of the United States to impose such
penalty Is imprisonment for thirty days
and returning to his native country on
mere hearing before United States court
commissioner. This contention was sns-
tanned By Judge Nelson. who held that the
right Of t-ia! by jury could not be denied
20 any person accused OF an ofFense calling
for such penalty.
This Law, enacted in Msy last, provided
that all the Chinese in this country must,
within year from that time, register their
names and deposit their photographs in
the offices Of the United States collector Of
internal revenue; and provided further
that those OF them who failed to obey til .
Law should be expelled from the United
States and shipped back to China. The
Chinese. have quietly declined to comply
with the terms OF the law. Out of about
10000 or more of them in this country
less than 100 all told have registered. In
short time, therefore, or on the 5th Of
May. if the law Of last year be enforced,
the job of shipping our 10000 Chinese
residents 10 China must begin. unless. in
deed, they are imprisoned for disobedience.
The Chinese government protested against
this act on the ground that it violated
treaty rights. The best lawyers in the
country have given their opinion that it is
unconstitutional. It is clearly failure.
