REFUSED NATURALIZATION
Colorado Judge CounseIs Him to Wait
Until Question is Finally Posed
on by U. S. Supreme Court.

Denver, Colo, Nov. 11.-District
Judge Mccall of Littleton this week
refused naturalization papers to Sy.
rian and will turn down all Asiatics
who want to become citizens until the
supreme court of the United States
settlers the meaning of the words
white persons as used in the natur
alization laws.
Judge Mccall told the applicant for
citizenship papers that it would be far
better to wait until the highest court
of the land passed on the matter than
for him to be granted papers now and
then suffer the humiliation of having
them cancelled in case the court de
cides that Syrians and other Asiatics
were not white people.

GRAND JURY AFTER
LAND OFFICE OFFICIALS.
1t is Argued That These Must Neces-
sariIy be Aware of Barefaced At
tem3ts to Oefraud Through
Dummy Entries.

Denver, Colo, Nov 1.-THE federal
grand jury, now in session, may take
a new tack and in addition to the in
yestigations being conducted into the
acts Of wealthy people suspected of
land frauds may recommend that the
affairs of more than one land office in
the state be looked into.
Many of the grand jurors already
have stated their personal views on
the conditions they believe they think
men higher up in the Offices are guilty
Of collusion.
1t is argued by them that the cases
now before them could never have
been brought about were il nor for the
fact that someone in the land office
where the filings were made permitted
the scores of colored men and tran
sients to make their applications and
eventually prove up on the land.
