That is perfeetlytrue. but thecase is parallel from the fact that he gets his pay from the organization which ho leaves. Without continuing that line of remarks. I say it was contrary to the policy of the United States to naturalize Indians up to the time when the fourteenth amendment was adopted. I do not agree with my friend. the Senator from Ohio. [Mr. TnnuscAN.] in supposing that leaving out the word "white" in the naturalization law has anything to do with the naturalization of Indians. In an opinion of the Supreme Court. which I know is not much respected by some people. hut an opinion which I have always respeetedI allndo to the opinion in the Dred Scot easethe Chief Justice. in speaking of the naturalization of Indians. uses these words: Congress might. aswe before said. have authorized the naturalization of Indians. because they were aliens and foreigners. So they were at that period of time. But in their then untutored ad4 savage state. no eo wonld have thtought of ad. mnitting them as citizens in a civilized conmmunitv.
