Immigrants are coming Into the United States now. and will continue to come. unless they are cut off by the proposed immigration bill. at the rate of a million a year. That means more than 100.000. probably 200.000 persons who are capable of becoming citizens. so far as age is concerned. and perhaps more than that. Most of these people in the past have applied for citizenship. But whatever the number may be (in the city of Chicago it certainly amounts to thousands every year). an astute district attorney who wanted to carry the election in favor of his side could very easily take 7767an appeal in all cases of men who were going to vote the opposition ticket. And my observation and experience are that these ad]vantages are seldom let go by. and I have not the slightest doubt that that sort of thing would be resorted to. not openly. not with the pretense that that was being done. but a suspicion would arise as to the propriety of the naturalization of men who were going to vote the Democratic ticket. when the administration was Republican. and vice versa when the administration was Deinocratic.
