NATURALIZATION
ISSUE RAISED
George Rodiek S Admission to
Citizenship Held Up by
Objection.

While the question of the jurisdiction
Of circuit judges in this Territory ever
naturalization, prior to the coming into
effect Of the new naturalization law. is
pending in the Supreme Court Of the
United States with a mans life de-
pending on it at that, another question
of naturalization has been raised in the
Federal court here.
This is whether Sec 100 Of the Or
ganic Act was repealed by the natural
ization law of 1906, that section reading
as follows:
That for the purposes of naturaliza-
ton under the laws Of the United
States residence in the Hawaiian ISL
ands prior to the taking effect Of this
Act shall be deemed equivalent to resi-
dence in the United States and in the
Territory of Hawaii, and the require
ment Of a previous declaration of inten-
ton to become a citizen of the United
States and to renounce former ale
glance shall not apply to persons who
haYe resided in said islands at least five
years prior to the taking effect of this
act: but all other provisions Of the laws
of the United States relating to natur-
ply to persons in the said islands"
1t will be remembered that there was
a great rush of aliens to become natur-
allied here just before and up to the
time when the amended naturalization
law took effect. This was on account
of the unofficial but not unadvised
warning published in the papers that
the statute just mentioned has the eff
~, =
to provide a government for the Ter
ritory of Hawaii" And, as a matter
of fact, there has been nobody in the
Territory naturalized under that sec
ton since, the only entries on the rec
ords until now, in the intervening pc
riod, relating to applicants making
declaration Of intention"
George Rodiek, a director of H. Hack
field & Co., Ltd, about whom the new
issue under Sec. 100 is raised, had his
for citizenship entered and
posted according to the forms of pre-
vious declaration Of intention" Yet he
claims the privilege under that section
of being exempt from the necessity of
waiting for two years from declaration
to be admitted as a citizen.
When Mr.. Rodiek accordingly came
before Judge Dole yesterday to be made
a citizen, Assistant District Attorney
Dunno. on behalf of the United States,
to the proceedings as being in
conflict with the Act of Congress of
June %, 1906.
Judge Dole stated that he would take
time to consult the authorities He
asked Mr.. Rodiek if he had counsel and,
being answered no, suggested that It
would be valuable If he engaged coun-
sci since the point had been raised The
matter was continued to a later day.
The naturalization law of 1906 has
this in it's concluding provisions: "And
all acts or parts of acts inconsistent
with or repugnant to the provisions Of
this Act are hereby repealed" So the
point raised in Mr.. Rodiek's case comes
down to whether or not Sec. 100 of the
Organic Act is inconsistent with or re-
pugnant to the provisions of the nat
law of 1906.

Special to Times-Republican.
Webster City, Nov. 1.-The immense
barn on the r. b. Foster farm north Of
this city, was burned to the ground
last night, together with eight head of
cattle, a thousand bushels Of corn, and
other contents, entailing loss of $5,-
900.
During the fire and while the menu
bers Of the family were trying to pre-
vent It's spread and rescue the live
stock, the Foster home was robbed Of
probably $1,000 worth Of valuables.
Suspicion Of both the fire and the rob-
berry attaches to the bandit McElhaney,
who terrorized the whole of Cass
township a year ago and who, while
on his way to the Minnesota state
for crimes committed in
that state, escaped by jumping from
the window of passenger coach clos
ct, while the train was in motion.
