Every point OF controversy 10 mace "
in plain letters and words they cannot
be misunderstood.
The Democratic party assert boldly
and defian,ly that the Constitution OF
the United States is fully, sufficiently
clear, explicit, powerful, and efficient tor
the suppression Of the rebellion and the
administration Of the government in
peace or war.
The opposi,ions to the Republican
party are, upon the other hand, l'bell'ug
the Republican form Of government as
a farce, and propose to supplant it with
brute force and indiscriminate despot.
ism.
The Democratic party claim tbs right
OF the protection Of the laws OF the
country to every man in it, and the sub
mission to law Of every citizen, and the
condemnation by law of every criminal,
be his crime whatever it may, and the
punishment by law of every crime, and
that there is 20 other tribunal than the
civil courts, TO arrest. arraign, try, con-
denim, acquit or punish any man under
the direction Of law. 1t reiterates that
old maxim of English law, laid before
every jury that ever sat in civilized
country for the trial Of criminals-,hat
all men are presumed innocent until
proven guilty.
The Republican party demand the
abolition of information before arrest ;
Indictment by grand juries; trial by
jury; judgment by courts, and the H.
fiction of punishment according to law;
and to presume every man a criminal
who differs with them in opinion.
The Democratic party favor the trials
Of men by courts, held by judges learn
ed in the Law, carefully selected by the
people.
The Republican party demand that
:ourts be abolished, judges imprisoned,
and sll the cases Of the country be tried
by Orderly Sergeants, second Lieuten-
ants, aud other young yentlemee, en-
lirely innocent Of any law experience
or any other requirement whatever,
except brass washed epaulettes.
The Democratic party favor the
most economical administration of the
Government possible, and the fewest
possible officers, and those only which
are provided for by law.
The Republican party demand the re-
sources of the country to be placed in
contribution to their leaders, that the
whole people be made vassals 10 power.
and submit to plumber at the will of the
plnnderers without regard 10 private
rights.
The Democratic party claim that all
of the laws of the country are OF plain,
easy and strict Interpretation.
The Republican party leaders claim
that they have some secret ledgcrdemain
to learn of spirits, higher law I'M
known to common people.
The Democratic party claim no i'm
munity from the frail,ies Of human ma
tire, and the jud gments of the law.
The Republicans claim the right to
commit drunkenness, dcbaucbery, des
potism, robbery and every other crime
under Heaven, in the name of sancti.
fled patriotism.
Democracy is at once the offspring,
guardian and perpetual inheritance o.
toe people. Repubicansm is the off
spring Of demagogueism, the tyrant and
bane of civil liberty.
Let the peopls read the issues and
array themselves accordingly.
