EQUAL RIGHTS OF CITIZENSHIP The central idea of a republican form of government' is the rule of the whole people as apposed to other forms which rest upon a privileged class. Our forefathers, in the attempt to erect a new government which might repre sent the advanced thought of the world at that period, upon the subject of governmental reform adopted the idea of the people's sovereignty, and thus laid the basis of our present republic. While technically a eovernment of the people, it was in strictness only a gov ernment of a portion of the people, ex cluding from all participation a certain other portion held in a condition of ab solute despotic and hopeless servitude, the parallel to which fortunately does not now exist in any modern christian nation. With the culmination, how- ever, 01 anotner circle aavanceu throughout the American republic sud denly assumed the character of a gov ernment of the whole, and four million human creatnrcs emerged from the condition of bondsmen to the full status of freemen, theoretically invest ed with the same civil and political rights possessed by their masters. The subsequent legislation which is guar anteed by every legal title of citizen ship and full equality before the law in all its respects in all respects of this previousl v disfranchised people, amply covers the requirements and secures to them so far as legislation can privilege American citizenship. But the disa greeable fact is that while theoretically we are iu the enjoyment of a govern-1 mental of the whole people practically we are almost aa far from it as we were in the ante bellum days of the rppulic. There are but a few leading and in disputable facts which cover the whole statement of facts. In many southern states the colored people are republi cans, as are also a considerable portion of the white people. The remaining dortion of the latter are democrats. In the face of this incontestable truth these states invariably return demo cratic majorities. In other states of the eouth the colored people, although not a uinjo-rity, form a very considera ble body of the population, and with the white republicans are numerically inexces of the democrats. Yet pre cisely the same political result obtains, the democratic party invariably carry ing the elections. It ii not even thought advisable to all occasional or unimp' rtatit election to be carried by the republicans ss a '-blind," or as a streak f fiue.-sc Careful and impar tial iuvfHtig-ition h;w shown these re sults to loilow t ic systematic exercise of phy&ica! inMniMatioti aud violence, coi;joiiud with the most shuuieful de vices ever pr M'ticcil in the name of free institutions, .o coulhud lias this result become tht we are brought face to facj with the extraordinary political fact that the democratic party of the south relk's Rlmost entirely upon meth ods staled for success in national elec tions. This unlawful perversion of popul.tr franchise, which I desire to slate iru passionately and in a manner comporting with the proper dignity of the occasion, is one of deep gravity in a double s-ense to the American people. First, it is in violation, open, direct and Uar:iiit, ot the primary principle upon w!ii l: our government is mp posed to rest, viz: that the central .government is participate! in by nil le gally qualified citizeue, i;i accoidai.ee with ll.e pl-:i i f popular go eminent, and dint inajorUie mut rule ia the decision of all questions. Second, it is in violation of the rights and interests of the state,, wherein are particularly centered the great wealth and industries of the nation, and which pay au overwhelming portion of the national taxes. The immense aggrega tion of iuterc?tt embraced within, and the enormously greater population of these other states of the union, are subjected every four years to the dan gers of a wholly fraudulent show of numerical strength. Under this sys tem our minorities actually attempt to direct the cause of national affairs, and though up to this time success hag not attended 1 In ir ciTurls to elect a prcsi-idc-nt, yet pjjecess has been &o perilously imminent as to encourage a repetition of the effort at each quadrenuial elec tion, aud subject n overwhelming majority of our people north and south, to the hazards of illegal subversion. The stereotyped argument in refuta tion of these plain truths is that if the republican element was really in the majority they could not be deprived of their rights and privileges by the mi nority. But neither the statistics of j population nor unavoidable logic of the situation can be overriden. The j colored people of the south have re-j cently emerged from bondage. Their present, political oppression. They have had hut few advantages of educa tion which might enable them to com pete with the whites. As I have there fore maintained, in order to achieve the ideal of perfection oe popular gov ernment, it is absolutely necessary that the masses should be educated. This provision applies itself with full force to the colored people of the 6outb. They must have better educational ad vantages, and thus be enabled to be come the intellectual peers of their white brethren as many of them un doubtedly, already are. A liberal school system should be provided for the ris ing generation of the south, and col -ored men be made as capable of exe cuting the duties of electors as the white people. In the meantime it is the duty of the national government, to go beyond the resolutions and declara tions on the subject, and to take 6uch action as may be in its power to secure absolute freedom of national elections everywhere, to the end that our con gress may cease to contain members representing fictitious majorities of their people, thus misdirectiug the popular will concerning natioual leg islation, and especially to the end that in prebideutial coutests the great busiueas and other interests of the country may not be placed in fear and trembling lest an unscrupulous minor ity &hould sncceed in stifling the wish es of the majority. In accordance with the spirit of the last resolution of the Chicago platform, measures should be taken at once to remedy this iirest evil From John A.
