Election, Tuesday October 13, 1868
The Presidential Contest and the Dem
eeratie Press.
We 'areabout -entering upon the most
important contest known to the history of
our country. It - will determine whether
the Government is to be entrusted for an
other four years to the Radicals who are
striving to abolish every vestige of our once
free and popular system, and establish a
despoLism in its stead, or whether it shall
be wrested from the hands of those who
have betrayed the trust reposed in them
and abused their power, at the cost of
pubic -liberty and property.
From all quarters come tidings that the
people are aroused to the importance of
the issue.; that they see the danger, and
are preparing to sweep Radicalism out. of
power. All the elections give us large
Democratic gains, and the hopes of a
Democratic President are well founded.
We have only to use the means in our
reach to render victory certain. But, a
general system of negligence will insure
our defeat. The Radicals will use all the
corrupting influences known to vile hu
man nature. They will scatter broad-
cast, at public expense, tons of printed
matter to poison the public mind and at
feet the doubtful voters.
How are we to meet their efforts and
prevent them from deceiving those who
bold the balance or power? Public meet
ings—speeches—will be of service. but
they come too late, and do not reach the
ones who most need rousing to the dan
gers that threaten. The newsp4per press is
the engine that moulds public opinion,
awakens the dilatory to a sense of duty,
and determines the result.
Let one or more of our, faithful Demo
cratic newspapers visit every Democratic
hohsehold each week. Pat them also in

Begin the work Now and push it vigo
rously until November. Other means,—
organiz ition, presently follow,
but, this must not be -delayed. Every
Democrat should first secure his County
paper, and as many others as his means . ,
will permit. Read them, show them W 1
your friends and urge them to subscribe.
We are about to enlarge and' improve
the Morrnosu DEsrocrtrr, not only as a
permanent matter of business, but with
special reference to this campaign. There
are hundreds who have never taken the
paper who should now come to our aid.
Let them send in their names without de
lay. Let every patron seek one friend or
more to be added to our list. This will
materially strengthen our handsjust now,
and help secure future and additional im
provements; and the beneficial results
sure to follow in the success of our Na
tional, State, and Congressional ticket,
will alone warrant the effort. Our friends
as well ail ourselves have long felt the
need of an enlarged paper; we are now
about to have it; we have made the first
and all-important step, which will be ap
parent in our next issue. Now let\ our
friends fall in promptly and help us push
the enterprise to a complete success.
Send us the pay for old subscribers, and
also.new ones; that is the favor we ask.
Mississippi Election.
The news from Mississippi shows that
the Bureau has failed to control the negro
vote, and that radicalism has been large-
Jy beaten. But it is said that Grant has
had a dispatch saying that the rad!cals
will carry the State; which means, we
presume, that after the polls close the
"voting" will.be kept up by the military
power until a count can be made up to
suit the radicals, as has been done here
tofore.
The latest despatches state that the
radicals are beaten by 25,000 majority.

in Washington, representing that they
have been residents in this city for more
than a year, and of their ward for more

idence anywhere else; that their votes at
the last election were thrown out, and
complaining that the bill recently passed

The Howe went into Committee of the
Whole on the whisky and tobacco tax
bill, the question being on the amendment
to reduce the tax to fifty cents per gallon
on whisky. Various otber rates were pro
posed, varying from twenty to fifty-five
cents. The qiiestion was discussed at
considerable length, members generally
particsipating in the debate. The vote was

rejected except Mr. Van Wyok's, fixing
the rate at MI y cents, which was adopted

resumed consideration of the special tax
bill.

In the House Mr. Schenck made a state

The: Omnibusl3lll Veto.
On Thursday the President sent the
following message : •
To the House of Representatives:
In returning to the House of Represen
tatives, in which it, originated, a bid en
titled "An act to admit the States of
North Caroina, South Carolina, Louisi
ana, Georgia!, Alabama, and Florida to
representation in Congress," I do not
deem it necessary to state at length the
reasons which constrain me to withhold
my approval; I will not, therefore, un
dertake at this time to reopen the discus
sion upon the grave constitutional ques
tions involved in the act of March 2d,
1867, and the acts supplementary thereto,
in pursuance.:of which it is claimed in the
preamble; of the bill the States have fram
ed and adopted • constitutions of State
government, :nor will I repeat the objec
tions contained in my niessage of the 20th
inst., returning without my signature the
bill to admit ',to representation the State
of Arkansas,f and which are equally ap. ,
plicable to the pending' measure. Like
that recently passed 1r eferOnce to Ar-,
hatless, thhi hill supersedes the plain and
simple mode presented by t o Constitu
tion for the mimissioo to' sea in the re-!
spective houses - of Senators. liepresen-:
totivel from Ike soma
It assumes authority over the States of
the Union which has never .heen delegat
ed to Congress, or is even warranted by
previous constitutional legislation upon
the subject of restoration. It proposes
conditions which are in derogation of the
equal rights of the States, and is founded
upon a theory which is subversive of the
fundamental principles of the government.
In the case of Alabama, it violates the
plighted faith of Congress by forcing up.
on that State a Constitution which drag ,
rejected by the people, according to'fAbe
express terms of an act of Congress, re
quiring that a majority of the' registered
electors shall vote upon• the question of
its reti6cation. For these and many oth
er objections that might be presented, I
cannot approve this bill, and therefore re
turn it, for the action of Congress requir
ed in such oases by the Federal Constitu
tion. ANDREW JOHNSON.
The Arkansas Bill.
President Johnson's Veto blessage.
To the Rouse of Repreeentotivese
I return without my signature a bill en
titled "An Act to admit the State of Ar
kansas to representation in Congress."
The approval of this bill would be an
admission on the part of the Executive
that the "act for the more efficient gov
ernment of the rebel States," passed Arch
2d, 1867, and the act supplementary there
to, were proper and constitutional. My
opinion, however, in reference to these
measures has undergone no change, but
on the contrary, has been strengthenbd
by the results which have attended their
execution.
Even were this not the case, 'could not
consent to a bill which is based upon the
assumption either that by an act of rebel -
ion of a portion of its people the State of
Arkansas seceded from the Union, or that
Congress may at its pleasare, expel or ex
clude a State from-the Union, or interrupt
its relations with the government by ar
bitrarily depriving it of representation in
the Senate and House of Representatives.
If Arkansas' is a State not in the Union,
this bill.does not admit it as a State into
the Union. If, on the other hand, Arkan
sas is - a State in the Union, no legislation
is necessary to declare it entitled " to rep
resentation in Congress as one of the
Slates of the Union." The Constitution
already declares that "each State shall
have at least one Representative ;" "that
the Senate shall be composed of LWO Sen
ators from each State ;" and " that /10
State without its consent shall be depriv
ed of its suffrage in the Senate." That in
strument also makes each House "the
judges of the elections, returns and quali
tications of its own members," and there
tore all that is now necessary to restore
Arkansas in all its constitutional relations
to the government is the decision by each
House upon the eligibility of those who,
prsenting their rredentials, claim seats in
the respective Houses of Congress. This
is the plain and simple plan of the Consti
tution , atm tociteving ilium. nun it twetrpur
sued when Congress assembled in the
month of December, 1805, the restoration
of the States would have lung since been
completed, I once again recommend that
it be adopted by each House, in prefer
ence to legislation which I respectfit ly
submit is not only of at least doubtful
cOustitutionality, and therefore unwise
and dangerous as a precedent, but. is um
necessary, not so effective in its operation
as the mode prescribed by the Constitu
tion, involves the additional delay, and
from its terms may be taken rather as ap
plicable to a territory about to he admit
ted as one of the United States than to a
State which has occupied a place in the
Union for upwards of a quarter of a cen
tury.
This bill declares the State of Arkansas
entitled and admitted to representation
in Congress as one of the States of the
Union upon the following fundamental
condition :
That the Constitution of Arkansas shall
never be so amended or changed as to de
prive any citizen or class of citizens of the
United States of the right to vote who are
entitled to vote by the constitution here.
in recognized, except as a punishment for
such crimes as are now felonies at com
mon law, whereof they shall be duly con
victed under laws equally applicable to all
the inhabitants of said State. Provided,
That any alteration of said Constitution,
prospective in its effect, may be made in
regard to the time and place of residence
of voters.
I have been unable to find in the Con
stitution of the United States any warrant
for the exercise of the authority thus
c'aimed by , Congress. In assuming the
power to impose a "fundamental condi
tion" upon a State which has been duly
admitted into the Union on an equal foot
ing with the original States, in all respects
whatever, Congress asserts a right to en
ter a State as it may a territory, and to
regulate the highest prerogative of a free
people—the elective franchise. This ques
tion is reserved by the Constitution to the
States themselves, and to concede to Con
gress the power to regulate this subject
would be to reverse the fundamental prin
ciple of the Republic, and to place in the
hands of the Federal Government (which
is the creature of the States) the sover
eignty which justly belongs to the State
or the people, to the true source of all po
litical power by whom our federal system
was' created, and to whose will all is sub
ordinate.
The bill fails to provide in what man
ner the State of Arkansas is to sigiNy kis
acceptance of the "fundamental cotidi
lion" which- Congress endeavors to make
unalterable and it revocable. Nor does it
prescribe the penalty to belimposed should
the people of the State amend or change
the particular portions of the Constitu
tion which it is the' pUrposes of the bill to.
perpetuate, but leaves them in uncertain•
sy and:. doubt so to' the eensequeueeirof
such action, when the circumstances un
der which this constitution_l4,4_been bro't
to the attention of Conpreesirn consider
ed. It is not unreasonable that
efforts will be made lomodify its provis
ions; and especially_ tilos( ha respect to
which this measure prohibits any alters
don. It is seriously_ (Optioned whether
the constitutionime keen ratified by a ma
jorit y of .the persons - who,under the act
of !larch 2d, 1867, and t he acts supple
mentary thereto, were entitled to regis
tration and to vote uttoe,Viat issue. See
don 'ten of the schedule provides that "no
person disquatified''frotte'voting or regia- -
tering , under this constitution shall vote
for candidates for any office, nor shall be
permitted to vote ter4 the .ratification or
rejection of the constitution at the polls
herein anthorized." , ,Itssumed to be in
force before ha adoption, in disregard of
the laW , of COngrees ) the constitution un
dertakes to impose — upon the elector other
and' further conditions. The fifth section
of the eighth tinkle provides that "all
persons, before registering of voting,"
must take and subscribe ani oath which,
among others, contains the following
clause -
"That raccept the civil and political
equality OA men, and agree not to at
tempt to'deprive any person or persons,
on account of race, color or prOvious con
dition, Of any political or civil right, priv
ilege; or immunity enjoyed by any other
crtn.s of men."
It, is well known that a very large por
tit:in of the electors in all the States, if not
a large majority of all of them, do not be
lieve in or accept the political equality of
Indians, Mongolians, or negroes with the
race to which they belong. If the voters
of many of the States of the - North and
West were required to take such an oath
as a test of their qualification, there is
reason to believe that a majority of them
would remain from the polls ra• her than
comply with i s degrading conditions.
How far and to what extent this test
oath prevented the registration of those
who were-qualified under the laws of Con
gress, it is not possible to know; but that
such was its effect, at least sufficient to
overcome them alt and give a doubtful
majority in favor of the constitution there
can be no reasonable doubt.
Should the people of Arkansas, there
fore, desiring to regulate the elective fran
chise so as to make it conform to the con
stitutions of a large proportion of the
States of the North and West, modify
the provisions referred to iu the "funda
mental condition," what is to be - the con
s( qttence ? Is it intended that a denial of
representation shall folsow ? And if so,
may we not dread, at some future day, a
recurrence of the troubles which have so
long agitated the country ? Would it not
be the part of wi:dtim to take for our
guide the Federal Constitution, rather
than resort to measures which, looking on
ly to the present, may in a few years re
new,
in an aggravated form, the strife
and bitterness caused by legislation which
has proved to be ill-timed and unfortan

Railroad Accidents.
• TOLEDO, JODe 20
An eastward hound express train on
the Toledo and Cleveland railroad, leav

track by a misplaced switch, which was
forced open and blocked. The engineer,
baggage•master and express messenger
were injured. Three men, with a wagcn,
were seen near the locality immediately
upon the occurrence, and it is supposed
they designed to rob the ex_ reee car. No
passengers were injured.

were injured, two of them severely.
Impartial Suffrage.
It is an interesting fact in political his
tory that the loudest screams for "impar
tial suffrage" come from the very men,
who, not a long while ago, insisted that
a probation of five 'years was too short
for the foreigner, who sought our shores
to enjoy a freedom that was denied him
at home. Henry Wilson, of Massachu
setts, Schuyler CoMi.' and many other
modern Radicals, whose names will at
once'ficour to every reader, had "seen
Sam," and one of the obligations they
took in the presenCe of that mysterious
personage, was to exclude the foreigner
from the ballot fur twenty one years. -
