Does the gentleman consider it fair to require a man in States like Massachusetts. New York. Connecticut. Pennsylvania. or other States to spend five years and become a citizen. be able to read and write the English language. speaking or reading fluently before he can vote. while in other States men are allowed to vote even for President of the United Stateb without becoming citizens at all? In the course of my political experience I have met men who have lived in Minnesota or in the Dakotas. who had to be naturalized in Massachusetts after having voted for Members of Congress and for the election of President of the United States in those States. ]Does your committee think it fair to impose rules in regard to naturalization of that character. which will cause men in certain sections of the country to wait a long time before they can vote for any office. while men in other sections are allowed to vote for Members of Congress and President of the United States without being citizens at all?
