Before the bill is laid aside for the day. I will suggest to the Senator from Wisconsin that the last provision is entirely separate from the one to which he took exception. It simply provides for the granting of naturalization papers to people who live in our insular possessions. As the law now stands no one can be naturalized in accordance with the statutes until he forswears allegiance to some foreign sovereignty. and as there is no such foreign sovereignty for any one of those inhabit- ants to forswear his allegiance to. this bill simply corrects the law in that particular. I hope there will be no objection to that. but .that the amendment may be considered adopted. and the bill then go over as to the other amendments.
