If a man gets both legs cut off there in broad daylight. he had better take any sum that is offered. because they can delay the hearing of his case until his legs grow out or he dies. I do not know what the object of my friend from New York is in having this resolution passed. because there is not a man in this House who knows more about the conditions existing in the city of New York with reference to the failure of the judges to perform their duties in the matter of naturalization than he. It is a matter of common notoriety. and there Is nothing that the subcommittee can learn that will be new to him or new to any intelligent man who reads a .newspaper published in the vicinity of the city of New York.
