In the first place, • Congress found crtrtni•
zations in existence in the south that were in
rebel hands, that were persecuting loyal meu
that were obstructing : the process of law.
In !het there were no loyal governments in
the South. How did we commence? We
comn.emed by attempting to relieve the dif
ficulty without negto suffrage. We passed
the civil tights bill.' The President vetoed it
It was opposed in the South ; it was declared
unconstitutional by the judges in the South :
it. was not executed. Civil rights were denied
to the negoes f. which all the Democrats now
say they ought to have. They say they will
give them civil rights. Why did they not gist
them civil rights under the civil-rights bi and
execute that law. The President bad vetoed
it and the reasoning of his veto message
followed by those who had charge of the ex
ecntion ifft he law:
We then passed a Freedmen's Bureau bill.
That was inoperative except in the immediate
presence of the military commanders. The
objection made to tuese measures was tint
they were unconsi it utional. All admitted the
justice of the civil-rights bill, but it was op
posed on technical grounds. Congress then
sought to remedy that difficulty, and how ?
By proposing a constitutional amendment
which denied the powerof the State organizt
lions to deprive any citizen of his civil rights.
with other ty ovisions. This was submitted
to the States-; and this was rejected by the re
bels; rejected by the Johnson party; rejected
by t ,the •Denrcrats. They said they wooli
not give our loyal black men in the South
civil rights; that they would not have them
protected; that.they would not give them the
aid Of the machineryOf the Government ; that
they would not allow loyal men to be protect
ed in the South. In other • words, they re
pndiated ev •ry proposition fbr constitutional

next? . There. were in the South a:large massorpeople,

passed reconstruction acts, whereby they con
