Scasesi. nhas given me their innersnaaning. I taeeeptlisstatennt as thotof asn honest man. lhre. extracts are front the StasatsZeitung of New York of April 4. 1874. and also from a German paper of the same title and date in Chicago. and fros the German paper of Philadelpha of April 6. 1874. They speak as if they were jesaloius and fearful of this and similar bills. not because the German people would disfavor expatriation. but because such bills seek rather to deter immigration ad to make our citizenship subject to odious and oterous restrietion. subject to. a network of police. It Other words. the general drift of this billit was not. of course. intended by the gentletn from Massachnsetsis to discourage immigratio. bcause it detr:tcts from the valte of our eitizenship. I might go into the details of the bill to show yon this. but I will not refer to details. execepting as faras ituay be absolutely neecssary. One of the many objcctios to this bill is a power with which the Secretary of State is elothed. is if he- were a judicial person to rnnaturalize under certain circumstances.
