Show Naturalization Catechism.-J udge McKean has resumed his former natur- alizat:on catcchUm. As f r c lusincw ofhis court presses npon hiaj.we suggest sug-gest an amended and abbreviated form, to save labor and expedite the matter. Instead of hw ordinary questions about polygamy, how a man believes, whether he would like to fight forjudge McKean in the event of a struggle, and so on, just let him reduce the inquiries to two: "Are you a Mormon?" "Do you favor Horace Greeley?" There is no earthly connection between the two queries any more than there is between lots of other questions asked by the judge, bat he could catch both tho religions re-ligions and political elements this way, On an answer to either in the affirmative affirma-tive the "ignorant and besotted foreigner" for-eigner" could be refused participation in the protecting blessings of the federal judiciary, including the right to Bell whisky without license in Salt Lake; but a negative answer to both ought to give the intelligent and loyal alien gentleman full admission into the bosom of the judge's happy fraternity, with a written permit that judge Strickland wouldn't order the new citizen shot at bast without a trial of some kind. |
