THE STATUS OF CHINESE.
Recent Opinion Handed Down by
Attorney General Griggs.

At the request of the Secretary of the
Treasury. Attorney General Griggs has
rendered an opinion in regard to the
status of Chinese in Hawaii. He holds
that a person born in the Hawaiian ISL
ands in 1885 of Chinese parents who are
laborers and taken to China with his
mother in 1890 is entitled to re-enter the
Territory of Hawaii, where his father
still resides.
Mr.. Griggs also gives it as his opinion
that the wife and children OF Chinese
person who was naturalized in 1887 in
Hawaii and still resides there are en-
titled to enter the Territory by virtue
of the citizenship" of the husband and
father. This opinion is based upon the
assumption that the Chinese persons In
question, born and naturalized. respec-
lively, in the Hawaiian Islands, were In
fact citizens of the Republic OF Hawaii
under Its constitution and laws on August
12, 1898. and had not abandoned or lost
their rights as such.
