JUDGE EDINGS GRANTS
CITIZENSHIP TO DAS
Rules That The Former Paia Chemist, A Hindu, Is
= A Free White Person Within The Meaning Of
The Law And Quotes A String OF Authorities
" Government Will Undoubtedly Appeal

Judge w. S. Edings has rendered
a decision in the case of Saranghad-
har Das, formerly chemist at Paia,
petition for naturalization, in which
he rules that Hindu of the Das
caste, or class, is entitled to citizen
ship. U. S. Attorney Huber stated
when he was on Maui at the time of
the hearing that if the decision were
against the government, appeal would
be taken to the higher courts; and
that will, in all probability, be done
The opinion of the court was as fol
lows:
This petition for naturalization is
opposed by the United States District
Attorney on the ground that the peti-
toner, being, Hindu, is not eligible
to naturalization under Revised
Statutes, section 2169, which limits
naturalization to free white per-
sons" and those of African nativity
and descent.
The other qualifications are found
by the court to be fully established,
and are conceded by the government.
Orthodox Hinduism ascribe to the
Aryan invaders four castles; the Brah-
man, or priestly; the Kshatriya, war
rior~or kingly; the Vaisya, mercantile
and agricultural; the Sudra, artisan
and laboring.
The petitioner comes from the north
ern part of India or what is known as
Hindustan proper; speaks Bengall:
is a high caste Hindu of pure blood,
belonging to what is known as the
Kshatriya, or warrior caste.
- 1t is doubtful if there is any such
thing as an European or white race

Paul Knyser, of Paia; Albert Cana
ra, Keahua; Naoki Matsueda,' Pau
wela, and Isashi Hasigawa, Lahaina,
accompanied by L. r. Mathews, direc-
tor of the Alexander House Settle
ment work, returned to Maui Tues
day morning by the Claudine from
Honolulu, where they had had the
time of their lives seeing the sights
of the city. James Kaai, of Molokai,
returned Wednesday night, having re-
mained over with friends. The young
lady, who had a right to accompany
the party miss Margaret Cabral, of
Hana,) decided to accept a prize of
a value equal to the money cost of
the trip.
These boys, and Miss Cabral, were
the successful competitors for the
grand prizes in the school gardens
contest. The boys, in charge of Mr..
Mathews, left for the city the day af-
ter Christmas, so were away a little
more than a week.
Upon arriving in Honolulu on the
morning of the 27th., the boys had
breakfast and then a swim in the big
tank at the Y. M. C. A. Secretaries
Larimer and van Eek, of the "Y'', took

The word white in the statute
seems to be used to designate persons
not otherwise classified, and refers
to race, rather than color.
If in 1875 Congress intended to
limit the privilege to Europeans and
Africans, and to exclude all others,
why did it not insert a more definite
expression than free white persons"
in the statute.
The two higher castles of India are
of the pure Aryan blood.
The races of mankind have been
classified by the most eminent au-
thors on anthropology as Caucasion
or White Races, Mongolian or Yellow
and Red Races and Negro or Black
Races.
ut may be said that the high-caste
Hindus who settled in India, some
1000 years ago, are as distinct from
the natives of India as the people of
this Country are from the American
Indian. j. Morrison, in re. Pandit.
Webster's new International Dict
ionary defines the term "Aryan" as
"a member of the Circasian race"
j. F. Blumenback reckons five races
viz: Circasian, Mongolian, Ethiopian
American, Malay. The ill-chosen
name of Circasian, invented by him in
allusion to a South Caucasian skull
of specially typical proportions and
applied by him to the so-called white
races is still current.

India are more closely related in
language, if not in physical appear
ance, to our northern Europeans than

A Japanese Killed
By Car At Puunene

Adashiro Jiro, Japanese laborer,
married, of Quarry Camp, was struck
on Puunene avenue at about o'clock
Sunday afternoon by Ford car No.
42S, driven by S. Maxine, and died in
the Puunene hospital about o'clock
the following morning. At the time
of the accident both car and victim
were proceeding toward Camp 5.
When Maxine first saw the man,
Jiro, the latter was about $50 feet
away, on the right-hand side of the
road, but three feet or more into the
right driveway. Maxine used his
horn, but the pedestrian did not heed
it, and (according to Makino) when
the Ford drew near, Jiro seemed to
totter toward the center of the road,
the right headlight striking and
knocking him down.
1t is claimed that when Maxine
struck the man he left his victim on
the road and went to the hospital to
get doctor. Not finding the physi-
clan there, he ran away home. Later,
John Nelson, of the Maui Soda works
found Jiro on the road and took him
to the hospital.
Yesterday morning Maxine was ar
raigned in the Wailuku district court
on the charge of manslaughter. He
waived examination and was commit
ted to the Circuit Court for trial by
jury.
1t is said that this was the third
road accident for Maxine within
twelve months.

that they used the cafeteria, gymasi-

cards. They We're told
that they could order as much as they
wanted at the cafeteria, and, boy-like,

They were told by Mr.. Mathews that,
being champion conservationists,
they must eat all they had ordered,
so that there would not be waste.
The boys made a desperate effort to
do so, but after that they We're much
