Letter from William Halpin to James Sullivan Clarkson

William Halpin compares the process of naturalization as it is undertaken by the New York State Supreme Court and the United States District Court in another district and argues that the District Court process is much more efficient. He requested that the District Court take over the naturalization process in New York and informs James Sullivan Clarkson that in New York a person must be a citizen for ninety days in order to vote. Halpin writes that the Republican Party has a two month window to help people become citizens and vote in the upcoming election.

Speech by William Halpin

In this speech, William Halpin expresses his gratitude at being selected as the president of the Republican County Committee for New York County, New York. As he has worked with the committee, he observed the party may have been too “self-centered” and suggests that the Republicans of the county ought to focus on the principles of the party. Instead of following, Halpin believes the Republican Party of New York County should lead, which he will do carefully as president of the committee.
