WEIY MJXORAST?
And yet there are men who are ig
ncr.ir.it of the provisions of the Consti
tutional Amend-riPni, The only way
we can account for this is on the prm-
rinle that "where ignorance is L!i.ie,
t -'lis
folly to be wise." Men are oppos
ing this Amendment and will vou
nainst it, who have never read it.
They oppose it because Uorgrt-ss pro
posed it, and for no other reason. I
this the way to perpetuate a Republi
can form of government ? The tim
has arrived when the American peop'e
must reason for themselves and vote in
accordance with the dictates of reason

men vote from prejudice instead o
reason, juit so long will there be i
feeling of uneasiness in rrgaad to th
liability of our institutions. That thou
?ands of men are opposing the propos
ed Amendment from no other motive
than prejudice, is concusively proven
from the fact that the Amendment def
initely settles the question which they
have always contended should be set
tied, and settles it in the exact manner
ihev have always said it should be set
tied. It has been the hue and cry of
the Democratic party for these many
vears that the question of sulFiage
should be left to the States themtelves
and thai Congress had no right to in
terfere with it. Now that an opportu
nity is offered to place it beyond the
now?r of Concress or env pany to
revive this question, we find these
same Democrats opposing the eettling
of the question. What are we to think?
Rut two conclusions can be arrived at
One of them is that they are ignorant
of what they are opposing, and ihe oth
cr is that they were not :n earnest in
their former professions. Which horn
of the dilemma will you tike ?

J. N. Wise, Esq. Ch'm. Dem Co.
Central Committee:
Sir On Friday last Mr. Jas. R
1 orter came to my omce in company
with Hon. J. E. Doom, for the purpose,
as Mr. Djnni informed me, of ascer
taining whether or not we would make
arrangements for a pint discussion of
the po'iiical issues of the day. He
was informed that ihat we were not
averse tosuch and arrargement, and
left for the put pose of consulting with
yourself and others of ycur party, say
ing be had not mentioned it to any one,
and only came to ascertain if we were
willing to enter into such an arrange
ment. You then caded upon me your
self on Saturday the 29th. and I in
formed you that we were not only wil
ling, but anxious to ho!d joint debates
and requested you to name your ypeak-
ers, and we would designate nu equal
number. I also informed you that you
could appoint tunes atd places to sua
younelf, provided they did not conflict
with exisiin? arrangements on our
part. To this proposition you gave me
no answer, but said you would
consult with others of your party. Yuu
left for, as I supposed, that purpose;
and no far her conversation or com
munication nas trnnspirea between us
on the subject.
I now renew in writing, that which
I proposed verbally, to-wit, that you
select your speakers, we will desig
nate an equal number for the purpose
of holding joint debate in this County
upon the national issues involved in
this campaign; the limes and places to
be designated by yourself; Provided.
they do not conflict with appointments
already made public.
t5An early reply is sehcited, as the
time is short.
Respectfully.

H. D. Hathaway Esq.
Ch'n. Rep. Co. Cen. Com.
Sir: Your co-nmunicntion of the 1st
inst., was recieved through the Post
office on last evening. In reply I have
to say:
1st. That after our conference on
Saturday 29th ult. at which you re
fused to admit the candidates on the
Conservative County Ticket to partici
pation in the discussion announced by
your party; I consulted with some of
the candidates and friends of my party,
in reference to the mailer under con
sideration,, when we determined, that
your party might pursue their own
course is the present canvass, and we
would pursue such a course as we
might deem most expedient; and in
pursuance cf that decision, we have
lready made arrangements for, and
ubhshtl our appointments. m 9 w
Yours Respectfully,
N. WISE, for Dem.Co. Cen. Com
The facts in the case, are in this
wise: ine uemncracy would concern
to hold joint debate if by that means
hey could break vp ihe ajpoi nimenis
we had already made; oihrwise they
woud not. We were ready to fill all
:ie appointments we had made, and
meet them at as many new ones as
they fell disposed to mal.e. Somebody,
through the Democrat, accuses us of
lying about this matter. We let the
people say who lied, after reading the
correspondence.
WHO IS COMl'LIMUXTED 1
The Si a la man says the record of
Moitonand Puddjck are the same.
We would like to know which of the
two he intends to compliment. Morton
always was a tympathizer with the re
bellion, and Paddock claim d to hate
that class of men "muchly." Morton
was a candidate for the U. S Senate
as a bitter and uncompromiMiig enemy
to Republicans ; Paddock was a can
didate at the same time for the same
position, and urged his election on the
ground that he was the wvrst radical
in the business. I heir r cords are
similar in this, that they loth lead to
the same end terminate at the same
point deuili. After the election,
fitting epitaph for them would be:
"Divided ihroucu Lite, tut United in
Death."
Platform of the Ileoctioii..,
Having heretofore set forth in detai
the great prmepiles for which the lie
publican party now contends, and the
splendid achievements with rvhich its
record is adorned, we now propose to
turn some attention to the opposite or
Reactionary party. It calls itself by a
great variety of name?, but the one we
have selected is the best and most ex
pressive.
1. The Reactionary party supports
the President in denying th constitu
tionul legislative powers of Congress
2. The Reactionary party supports
the President in attempting to interfere
with the liberty of legislative investi
gation, deliberation and action.
3. ihe Reactionary party supports
the President in ignoring the demo
cratic republican right of the majority
to govern.
4. J hj Keacttonnrv party support
the President in terming the people
elected representatives, a body "hanjr
ing on the verge of the government
5. Ihe Reactionary party supports
ihe President in denying to the peopl
the right to control the legislation of
the country through their elec.ed rep
resenlatives.
b- I tie Reactionary party supports
ihe Prerident in trying to bring odium
upon the National Congress, a co or
dinate branch of the Government, com
posed of delegates chosen from all parts
of the loyal States and representing the
interests and wishes of their constit
uents.
7. The Reactionary . party denies
the right of Congress to refuse seats in
either House to Representatives and
Senators from revolutionary, irregular
disloyal or usurping state organiza
tions.
8. The Reactionary party holds the
rebel States to be better Union Stales
than those which dragged them back
into the Union.
9. The Reactionary party holds the
North to be guiliy of treason, for re
t using to allow the 1 resident to revise
the qualifications of members of Con
gress.
10. The Reactionary party refuses
to secure front the conquered States,
guarantees for civil rights, the niviola
bility of the National war debt, and the
repudiation of the rebel war debt.
11. The Reactionary party demands
that the States of the South shall be
again consigned lo the government of
oligarchies, composed of a single lim
ited class of citizens, and totally ignor
ing the right of the majority to govern.
12. The Reactionary party defends
the massacres at Memphis and New
Orleans, and demands acquiescence in
the universal reign ot terror re-estab
lished in the South by the rebels.
THE QUESTION.
Speaking of Gen. Thayer's speech
at Omaha, in answer lo Judge Lock
wood, the Republican says :
He showed how almost immediately
after Seward announced in a telegram
in answer to Johnson's 22d February
speech, that the country was safe and
the people would be happy, inoffensive
men were shot down in the streets of
Memphis by a rebel mob; and after
thut, a peaceable convention in New
Orleans was assaulted by rebels, and
its members shot dead in cold blood ;
how when rebels congregated in a
Philadelphia convention rebel bonds
went up in Europe as soon as the news
could crocs the ocean. He said the
real question was whether rebels shali
reconstruct the Union, or whether we
shall reconstruct them. A question
which w ould have been already settled
by the war if Johnson had been true
to his pledges, and the Democrats true
to the country.
Is there One ?
If there is a man in this county who
is in favor of ferover settling this ques
tion of suffrage on the basis of allow
ing the States themselves to manage it,
but who thirks the Constitutional
Amendment dues not do that, we ask
him to take a copy nf that document
and read it until he commits it to mem
ory, aud then state his objections to it.
Don't vote upon this question blindly
VOTE THE TICKET.
Let every true man vote the Repub-
icau Uuion ticket. Vote it like Mor-

riple it represents. Do not be induced
by wily Democrats to even carry n pen
cil,, let alone using it on a Republican
ticket.
Or -
CJot If.
It has been publicly charged,
and
ias not beon denied, thai Morton se
cured his nomination through chicanery.
t is said he wns not the choice of the
Convention, and only got the nomtna
tion over a Cass County man by prom-
ses of position. What about that Dix
leiier

BEWAIlE;OF.TItItR!
The Democracy are trying to trade.
Don't be caught in any such trap. We
iave the majority, aud can elect every
in sin fin thp ticket if our friends will
on'y "vote it straight."
'the noYsiar blue"
Will teach apologists for treason that
their votes cannot be ''bought for a jug
of whiskey." They will present
solid phalanx on the side of the Union,
and their ballots will be of as true ma
terial as were their bayonets during
the war. They will come with un
broken front to tho polls, and show
iheir determination that the late war
shall not be made a "failure." They
rlo not nronose to sanction the doctrine
, ,
that one ex-rebel vote should equa
two of theirs.
IT I I.I. 'OU 9
Will war Democrats support such
man as J. Sterling Morton? A man
who boldly and defiantly denounced
svorv war measure inaugurated to
crush the rebellion; and one who is to
day just where he always was. Not
withstanding the changes of time, the
results of the war and the just condem
nrtion of such men as Vallandigham
thi man Morton, the bosom friend of
VollanHirrham. has the effrontery to
0
tell honest men that he has not changed
that he would not "dot an i nor cross
, ;n t.i war record:" and vet ask
a v -
them to vote for him. Will you do n
A WHITE MAN'S GOVERN
MENT. T rrv has been loud and long
with ihe Democracy for "a white man'
government." The Constituliona
Amendment propo-es just that very
thine. Will they go for it? It says
the States can let negroes vote or not
Thp Democracy savs the South dont
" J J
want ihe negroes to vote; all right
The Constitutional Amendment says
negroes who do not vote shall not be
represented in Congress; all right
again. Thus you see, we will have i
white man's government." The ne
oroes will neither vote nor be repre
sented in Congress. Hurrah for the
Amendment! If negroes are repre
sented in Congress, where's your
white man's government" gone to?
GROWING IJOEI.
As the battle prows fierce and the
o
enemy grows weak they become des
perate. At Salt creek one man came
out in his desperation, and said he was
in favor of the leading rebels of the
South coming into Congress and hav
ing control of ibis government. Anoth
er one said in this city last Saturday
that rebel prisoners were treated worse
in ihe North than ever Union prison
ers were ai Belle Isle or Andeirsonville.
The Copper Jehnson speakers are try
ing to frighten the loyal people into
support of rebels by threatening war!
war WAR!!! Do honest Demo
crats, who have assisted in maintaining
this Government agree to such teach
ings?, Will ihey cast their votes lo
sustain men who are in favor of hav
ing Jeff. Davis and the keepers of
Andersonville prison to rule this gov
ernment? Will they cast their votes
o sustain men who treat lightly tht
starving to death of thousands of our
noble boys in rebel slaughter pens f
Will they cast their votes to sustain
a party thai threatens another civil war
if they are not successful at the polls?
These things are not mere party dif
ferences; they arc questions vital to
the government. We all remember
how these same individuals once before
threatened war and disunion, and we
know whether they are tuitable men
with whom to entrust the affairs of the
nation. Let a voice go forth from the
ballot-box which will forever silence
such disorganizing spirits. It is not
enough that they should not be merely
voted down, but we must gain a victory
over them that will be decisive. Let
Union loving Democrats assist in the
good work.
LOCAL.
We learn that Morton's friends in
Otoe are endeavoring to make a diver
sion in his favor on local grounds. It
is of no use, Mr. Morton; the next
Delegate is bound to go from Cass
County.

More Iteptliutiout
The one grand mistake which the
)eiiiucratic party made ;n making ar
rangements tor tne present contest,
was to soil it garments by associating
with the little played out squad of ren
egade poliiicians, who have been kick
ed out of their own party, neck and
heels.sought to get hold of the Democ-
icy, and convert it to their own base
?es.
The independent masses of the peo
pie. who vote as reason and conscience
dictate were prepared to stand by the
President, and go for an early resto
ration of the Union. With their assist
ance the men who always adhered to
the Democratic party could have swept
the country from one end to another.
The moment it was seen that a combi
nation was about to be formed between
the leaders of the Democratic party
aud ftheir old enemies! the honest
mass became disgusted, and the Dem
ocrats lost a vast amount of indepen
dent co-ooeraiion, which would have
planted iheir banner on the highest
pinnacle of succes. fTheyl had
no particle of political capital on hand,
and could only command battered and
shattered reputations lo which no earth
ly certificate could give currency or
value, yet this disreputable little squad,
with no capital to invest in the partner
ship but drunken dotage, virility, im
becility and political prostitution reduc
ed to that pitiable condition when de
sire outlives performance, were accep
ted by the leaders of the Democracy
as associates to combat ihe radicalism
which ihey had deserted because they
could not rule it. They have met with
an appropriate reward Jv. Y. Aews
The Issue in a Nut-Suell. The
President and his followers wish to
bring the rebel Stales back into the
Union unconditionally, just as they are
without a single guarantee that they
will not secede again whenever they
feel themselves able to do so with ihe
Constitution unaltered, so that they
shall be entitled to a large represents
tion in Congress based upon millions o
disfranchised negroes with no security
except loose promises, against the ac
knowledgement and payment of the
debts contracted for the prosecution of
hostilities agaimt the Government
and with no guarantee that ihe rights
and liberties of the emancipated but
yet disfranchised class shall be re
sDected. Under his policy there is
nothing to prevent iho return of a solk
delegation of active, bitter, unrepent
ant rebels from the entire South to the
National Legislature.
Congress, supported by ihe great
Union Republican party, on the other
hand, submit an amendment to the Nn
tional Constitution as its basis of recon
Jtruciion, with conditions more moder
ate, gentle and magnanimous than
were over before offered to a set of
vanquished rebels conditions which
the people of the South would have
gladly accepted but for the persistant
encouragement that Andrew Johnson
has given ihem to stick to their rebel
lious principles, and but for the oft-re
peated invitation he has given to them
to unite with him in crushing the party
which crushed the rebellion, and as
far as possible to render loyalty to the
Union odious. Exchange.
Pawned Her Child for LiquoR.
The Detroit Post gives an account o
the arrest in that city of a young mar
Tied woman for being drunk. In or
der to sati.-fy the cravings of her appe
tite, she had pawned her husband's
clothing during his absence; her wed
ding ring went in the same way, and
and finally she went so far as lo pawn
her own snn, a bright eyed handsome
little fellow, three years old. The
mother refused to teli where she had
left him, and only after a long search
was he finally recovered The unfor
tunate woman was placed in a chariia
ble institution, where a reform will be
effected if possible. The besotted
wretch wno would receive a child in
exchange for liquor from an inebriated
woman, should also be placed in an
institution of another kind, and kept
there.
A Conversation. We heard the
following between a Northern and
Southern gentleman the other day.
The Southerner was extolling John
son and his policy in the usual lauda
tory term. The Northerner replied
that he thought that everything would
come out all right at last. He contin
ued : "The Northern and the South
ern people understand each other bet
ter than they did. We have come to
know you Southerners as a truthful
people. Formerly we doubted you;
now we know you better. In 1&64.
when we were nominating and electing
Andrew Johnson to the Vice Presi
dency, in 1S65, when Booth's crim
made him President, you told us you
knew Andrew Johnson, and that he
was utterly devoid of principle, that he
was the greatest scoundrel in the coun
try. We doubted then, we fully be
Iieve you now. We are getting a
high opinion of your truthfulness, and
I think all we needed was to tinder
stand each other a little before-"
Tho Southern gentleman seemed
pleased with the compliment to South
ern truthfulness, but looked a little
plagued at the peculiar mode by which
the Northerner illustrated it. Jllem-
