January 19th, made this declaration,
without dissent from one Republican
Senator:
.1 think, Mr. President, that the expe
rience of the last eighteen months has
brought the Congress of the United States
now to the point that we should declare
tnat we accept of the legal consequences
of the doctrine of reconstruction. I know
the common idea was, without consider
ation, a year and a half pgcp, that when
these States were once admitted, or, it
you please,restored to representation,
they passe d entirely from under the juris
diction of Congress and we were done
with them. Sir, that wee illogical, and
experience has now shownlthat we can
not stand upon that doctrine. We mutt
follow the .doctrine of reconstruction to its
con leguences, and, if necessary, we must
deal with these States after thsy have deem
readmitted." .
