There was a similar case in the courts of the southern district of New York against Savarino. where the same thing was held. The Government can not impose any jurisdiction upon a State court. It can not make the State court naturalize one single alien. but when any judge. with the permission- of a State. or any clerk of his court. with the permission of his State. assumes any jurisdiction which the Government tenders to him. then he comes under the jurisdiction of the United States Government and is subject to punishment for violating the statutes.
