MIYAKE HEARING
IS STRANGE TALE

Federal immigration officials tell
an interesting story concerning alleg-
ed fraudulent methods followed by 1t.
Miyake and Tama Tanaka, the Jap
anese woman he has lived with as his
wife for many years while his real
wife and daughter were residing in
Japan. in taking steps TO have their
illegitimate child recorded as a lawful
one, by means of adoption.
As reported by the StarBulletin
Tuesday, Miyake's appeal to Score,
tary Of Labor Wilson. from the de-
cision of the local immigration board
OF special inquiry forbidding him per.
mission to reenter the territory, has
been denied.
Miyake has applied for a writ of
habeas corpus. He was denied reaG-
mission on returning six weeks ago
from second trip to Japan.
After the child. Kiichiro Miyake,
now a young man, was born to Tama
Tanaka. Miyake. according to facts
discovered by United States immigra-
tion officials of this port, who have
investigated the case, arranged with
another Japanese to take the infant
and to register it at the Japanese con-
sulate as their own At the time the
illegitimate child was born here Mi
yake's true wife was living in Japan.
She continued to be his wife until
1905 or 1906, and has a daughter by
him. :"..%
Kiichiro Miyake was taken care of
by Miyake's confederate as arranged
They registered the child as their
own, all according to Miyakes
scheme A few years later Miyake
took out adoption papers for the boy.
Afterward he went before the terri
torial secretary to prove Kiichiros
Hawaiian birth. He then swore, the
federal officials claim, that Tama Ia
naka was his lawful wife and Kiichiro
her child
When the United States immigra-
ton officials questioned the Tanaka
woman concerning her alleged mar
riage to Miyake, she said the minis
ter who had married them was dead,
the witnesses dead also, the marriage
certificate had been burned with their
house at the time plague-infected
houses were burned by the board of
health, and the marriage license lost.
The board has been able to find no
proof of the marriage and Miyake Ia
ter admitted he had never been mar
ried to the woman

The governor today CURLY refused TO

Furthermore the governor refused

ment made yesterday in the Star-Bulle-
Tin that the Maui doctor Is through

TO the doctor himself. Ask him, he
said briefly.
Territorial circles TO-DAY were abuZz
with gossip over the break between Dr.
Raymond and the governor, this being
the chief topic of conversation
throughout most of the capitol.
Raymond Explains His Call
Raymond did not call on the territor-
ial chief yesterday TO discuss politics

the office, according to a statement
which The doctor made today.
Il came To see the governor primari-
ly to discuss the pardon of man in

governor could have done would have
been personally to request me to call

Thinks Forbes Opposed Him
Several times today DR.. Raymond
mentioned the belief that ''some in
fluence" had kept the governor from
putting MIN again on the land board
He thinks this Influence" was made
strongest during the governors recent
.lvisit to Maui. He also stated that he

Quotes Secretary Lane
Secretary Lane told me in Wash |
ington that Pinkham was skating on
thin ice,' says Raymond, referring to
the complaints that have reached him
IF these complaints continued he did |
not know what might happen. So got |
in and did my best for the governor |
Yesterdays treatment is the thanks

Forbes Says Nothing
Forbes declined today to discuss the /
matter, saying he did not intend to be-
come mixed in it. Will Wayne, the
governors secretary, stated at noon
today hat he has not yet seen the
doctors resignation.
A split with the governor was
the cause of Raymond's resignation,
as ann ounced in Tuesdays Star-Bulle-
tin, in the opinion of Lincoln L. Nc
Candless, who was Democratic candi-
date for delegate, and William A. Bry-
an, chairman of the Democratic terri

what he intimates."
Professor Bryan said he knew moth
ing of the resignation until he read it
in the Star-Bulletin. 1T would appear
that he has split with the governor
was his comment.

"Other Woman"
Family Hoard
Declines to Give Hubby Money
From Savings for lnnamor-
alta; He Makes Threats

Digging up from the family savings
for her husband to pay the steamer
fare of another woman to the island
of Maui did not appeal to the thrifty
mind of Agnes Kane, Hawaiian
woman, according to the story she
told in police court this morning.
When Mrs. Kane refused to divulge
the whereabouts of the household wal
let, her husband, Peter Kane, threat.
ened her, she said, and declared he
would shoot her All of which led to
her swearing out a warrant asking
that he be placed under bonds to keep
The peace. rs -.t.
The couple have lived together on
the best of terms for the last % years.
1t was "the other woman" that caused
the recent trouble, as Mrs. Kane con-
fessed this morning.
When asked if she feared her hus-
band now, Mrs. Kane cast a coy
glance at Peter, and murmured bash
fully that she did not.
Only l don't want him to get
drunk anymore" she said. AS an aid
to Peters following the straight and
narrow path, Judge Monsarrat had
the interpreter reprimand him round
", and then turned him loose. The
two walked out of the courtroom to-

NATURALIZATION
MEANS MUCH TO
LOCAL JAPANESE
Regardless of Decision They.
Will Follow American Ideals,
Says Hawaii Shinpo

Stating that the decision rendered
by Judge c. F. Clemens in the OZawa
case will naturally have an effect on
the Americanization OF Japanese in
Hawaii. the Hawaii Shinpo in an edit
orial reviews the effect of the decision
locally in this mornings issue. The
editorial says:
Judge Clemens decision in the
United States district court, denying
the petition OF Takao Ozawa for citi-
zenship on the ground that the Nip
ponese are of the Monaghan race and
therefore alien japanese may not en-
JOY naturalization in America" Is a
bar to complete assimilation Of Jap
anese in Hawaii.
This is, OF course, an obstacle in
their path to a full Americanization.
Notwithstanding, the Japanese will
continue 10 follow American ideas
which appeal to them and adopt
Americanisms worthy of adoption
whether or not the barrier will stand,
or how long ii will stand.
This obstacle may be removed. It
is hoped for the sake Of the worlds
progress generally anu for the benefit
OF Hawaii in particular, that the Jap
anese who live. American lives and
accept American ideals will be able
to enjoy the privileges of that citizen
ship which they wish to adopt.
Makes Great Advancement.
mo sooner had America a little
more than half century ago opened
the door TO japan than the Japanese
began to accustom themselves to
western civilization. They read with
remarkable facility aad took to them
selves many Of the ideas Of the west
erners. They applied them to their
system of government. and to their
mode of living, and In that short space
of time Japan has become one Of the
most advanced nations in the world.
"In Hawaii the Japanese have
speedily and effectively identified
themselves with the American ideas
and practise. They have Joined with
the Americans, and the manner OF the
Japanese is more American than Jap
anese. They eat American food and
wear American clothes Their Ameri-
can shoes, If nothing else were con-
sidered. Is proof enough that they
stand firmly for basic American ideals.
Is Radical Change.
"The change from the sandal to the
shoe is radical indeed In Japan old
battered buildings are being consigned
to the rubbish heap to make room for
modern American and European style
structures. In Japanese schools and
colleges the English language is used,
and there can be no doubt in the
minds OF the fair-minded people that
the japanese can be assimilated here
or anywhere.
The refusa, to admit Japanese to
see.ss based on techni-
cality Of the se milton Of the race
of what arc s. lite persons: tech
nicality which lars japanese but adj

is going to the United States supreme
court, where The final decision must
be given. The principle involved is
Of great importance and bears init
mately on the relations between Jap
anese end Americans here in Hawaii
Naturally the japanese are intensely |
in tbs outcome, hoping that |
success will crown their earnest cam
paign for citizenship"

YACHT CLUB HAS
TEN YEARLEASE
ONNEEDED
Gets Right of Way From Oahu
Railway and Land Co.; For
NAL Opening April 8

Troubles of the Honolulu Yacht
Club were settled today when LAND
between the peninsula road and high
water mark owned by the Oahu Rail
way and Land Company was leased to
the club for 10 years at 81 year.
Several months ago, when the yacht
club began the construction Of its new
clubhouse on the peninsula at Pearl
Harbor, permission to use the land
between high and low water marks
was granted by the harbor board
Building had not progressed very far
when they were notified by the rail
way company that the land between
high water mark and the road was
owned by the transportation line, that
right of way would have to be Sc
cured before members could use it as
an entrance to the clubhouse. The
club had presumed that right of way
went with the permission to build on
tine land granted by the harbor board.
The whole matter was referred back
to the board and it held up permits
sion to build until the club secured
permission from the railway to use
it's land Today's transaction accom-
plished this.
Formal opening of the Honolulu
Yacht Clubs new quarters on the
peninsula will be held Saturday, April
s. A luau for the $50 members and
their guests, dancing, speeches by
President L. Hart and other officers
and grand illuminated parade of the
club yachts, SOULS, canoes, and other
craft will compose the program for
the afternoon and evening.
