The fact that our present modc-lt cannot
be called system-of naturalization is fraud
on the American people, needs no fuller Illus
trations than it has recently received in Penn
sylyania. Though it failed to accomplish Its
object there, it's enormites were upon scale
which would in many elections have controlled
the result One of the first duties of the next
Congress will be TO give us perfected natu-
ralization law. 1t ought also TO pass thorough
uniform suffrage law. Among the points to be
embodied in these laws should be the fol-
lowing:
l. No voter should vote until three months
after he had been naturalized. This would
avoid the rush of voters through the naturall-
cation mills on the eve Of an election
ii. A transcript of every naturalized citizens
papers should be preserved as a record ana
kent open for public inspection.
III. The maturalized person should be either
minutely described or photographed" III his
naturalization papers and on the record-so
that his Identification should be beyond dis-
pute.
Nv. Whenever he votes. the Inspector OF
Election should note the fact, with date and
precinct, on the papers, to prevent repeating
V. Whenever court is called upon to natI-
ralize more than fifty persons day, it should
refer the surplus cases to Commissioner 10
take proof and in all cases satisfactory evl-
dcnce of good moral character, and OF the
other points required by the statute, should be
produced. The whole matter should be Judi-
cia, not farcical.
