NATURALIZATION RECORDS

NATURALIZATION, published in the Davenport Daily Gazette on April 4, 1867

-An impression prevails in the minds of many persons that when an alien has taken out his "first papers" - i.e. his declaration of intention to become a citizen- he is entitled to vote. This is entirely wrong. After taking out his "first papers" the alien must remain a resident of the United States for two full years, and after the expiration of that period, obtain his naturalization paper before being entitled to vote.

Acquaintances with these facts may save some trouble at the election next Saturday. Therefore we thus direct especial attention to this subject. Below we publish a correct list, as copied from the official records, of all those who have obtained their first papers at the office of the Clerk of the District Court of this county, during the past two years. Of course no one of these can vote on Saturday next, and any attempt to do so will subject them to severe punishment:
