then go with him 10 the Office of the Tzmmany
Hall Committee. in Centre street; get his pa.
pcrs made ost: then take him before the Judge
swearing the necessary oath, and so get the
certificate Of naturalization.
Never before has this work been CARRIED on

fraud! Another rascality which is largely

false names and selling them.
one man Is said 10 have thus sworn for thirty.

The democrats are resorting To these frauds
that they may Increase their majority this fall.
