Sometimes they have criticized me unjustly. but I know that the only reason they criticized me was an excess of zeal in behalf of the Indians. I am very happy to have them say at this time. "Here is a fine. outstanding citizen." It is not Dr. Nichols fault that he was born an Irishman instead of an Indian. I believe that whoever could best do the job should have it. regardless of his racial inheritance. It is not my fault that I am the son of a Swedish immigrant. but I believe I am just as able to sit on this floor as I would be if my ancestors for thousands of years had been raised in this area.
