Speech #460075502

I should be glad to have those items of information as much as the gentleman from Texas. but I say anything which goes into this census law which helps to prejudice the minds of the people against the censustaker and induce them to look upon him as a man who is making a domiciliary visit. peering into their private affairs beyond what is usual and ordinary. especialli that inquiry about naturalization. which will everywhere be looked upon as peertug into the question of a mans right to vote In order to entrap him about some vote he may have cast in the pastI think anything of that sort should be left out of the bill. I think these inquiries should be wisely left out. and I hope we will concur with the Senate.
