It goes on to provide how that consent is to be had. As the bill now stands. you force them to take land in severalty and you force them to become citizens of the United States. whether they desire to do so or not. I have heard it urged that there should be great liberality in the law under which foreigners can come here and be naturalized . but this is the first time I have heard that the rights. duties. and privileges of citizenship of the United States should be forced on men. whether they wanted them or not.
