ANOTHER SNAG FOR
REGISTRATION BOARD

The Board of Registration is up against
another snag placed in it's path by A. V.
Gear yesterday morning. The latter call
Ell into question the Boards interpreta-
ton of section 60. paragraph ?, of the Or
ganic Act. which reads as follows:
That in order to be qualified to vote for
Representatives a person shall have re-
sided in the Territory not less than one
year preceding and in the Representative
district in which he offers to register not
less than three months Immediately pre-
ceding the time at which he offers to
IL gister.
Mr.. Gears contention was that the sec
ton read very plainly, and to him clearly,
that the clause mot less than three
months Immediately preceding the time
at which he offers to register" means that
a man who has resided here for three
months Immediately preceding the
timc at which he registers is available for
registration, providing that he has fulfill
ed the provisions of the first clause. that
be has resided in the Territory not less
than one year preceding"
| BY this he means that in the case OF
Of Mr.. Hall, who had lived in Honolulu
| from 1896 to 1898 and had been absent un-
til May of this year, was eligible to regis
ter.
| Mr.. Gears Interpretation of the clause
! il that Mr.. Hall has lived not only one
lyoar preceding" but, in fact, two year:
preceding the time he went to register
BY having resided here since May, 1900
or more than the specified three month!
Immediately preceding the time he offer

to register he has entirely fulfilled the
provisions of the section, and is within
the meaning of the Interpretation intend
&c to be placed on the section by the
trainers of the Act.
The word Immediately" as Mr. Gear
contends, was placed in the section, and
especially IN the second clause, for a def
mite purpose. 1t does not read next
preceding" as legal phraseology would
have 1t, and which is the usual form in
sections of this character, but very. en-
phatically makes it Immediately"
He further contended before the Board
that the word Immediately had no ref
erence to the first clause, "have resided in
the Territory not less than one year
etc" Had it been the intention of Con-
gress to cause citizens to reside In the
Territory not less than one year immedi-
ately preceding. etc." the word would
have been so inserted He did not be-
Eeve they had any such intention.
The Registration Board decided against
Mr. Gear and refused to register Mr.
Hall. The matter was taken before the
Republican Committee yesterday and 1
was later decided to make test case II

applied for today by the Republican Com
mittee against the Board of Registration
in order to get legal decision as to thu
