COPPERHEADS VOTING FOR A
"NIGGERr'l

The Noble County Republican of
last week says, II .fcI
LESS than two years ago the De
moeraey of this county actually nom
mated and supported for one of the
principal county offices, mulatto, or
in other words a. ',black aigger;" that
they did so knowingly and with their
eyes open is = fact that will not. be
denied-oue of their leaders having
remarked to arepublican, when con-
versing on the subject, "that it was
a first rate joke on the Union candi-
date for the same office" and this
exclusively "white mans party ab-
solutely cast upwards of seventeen
hundred, (l700) votes for a Uack
Niger at State and county election
held within the county of Noble, in
the State of Ohio, on the 18th day of
October, 1868. So much for the
negro equality party"
Yes and in our neighboring City
of Portsmouth, not more than one
year ago, the Democracy cid the
same thing, in voting for genuine
African as black as the ace of spades
for councilman, IN preference to
white citizen of unimpeachable integ-
rity, and responsibility. Such is
Democracy. Such is the 'negro
equality party, in Ohio.

N The Dispatch says we are op-
posed to the equality of taxation"
Not at all, we are decidedly in favor
of it, on this wise: Certain Copper
heads in Gallipolis, the editor of the
Dispatch particularly, for the first
three years of the war, repeatedly
asserted that "greenbacks" and Gov
ernment bonds, would not be worth
a dollar bushel in six months there
after, and advised all their political
friends to steer clear of all such
worthless stuff. They carefully OBJ
served the advice, and not man in
vested dollar. The friends of the
Government did lend their money at
a time when 1t was of the utmost
value.
Now, that the Copperheads above
alluded to, find their prophecies all
false, we think the only way they
can be placed on an equality with men
who by their money have saved the
nation, is to allow them theexquisite
pleasure of contributing their share
to the taxes imposed by the State or
county. They had an opportunity
to invest in these bonds, but not lik-
ing the security declined the Offer
Have they any just cause of com
plant? If they could not trust the
Government with their money, have
they right TO find fault with those
who did? If they refused to help
loyal men bear the burden of Gov
ernment taxation, can they justly
censure that Government for protect
ing its friends2 Yes gentlemen we
are in favor of equality Of taration.
Are you?

WHAT THE UNITED STATES
COURTS HAVE SAID.

Upon the position of Ohio Democ-
racy, in reference to U. S. Bonds,
the following from the New York
World-excellent Democratic author
ity-is very pertinent:
'FThe Government has engaged It's
honor for the exemption of its bonds
from State and municipal taxation,
and it cannot, without disgrace, re-
pudiate its contract.
"a repeal of that part of the loan
law might unsettle public confidence;
but in other respects it would
amount to nothing. That clause OF
the law is, as regards enacting force,
mere surplusage. 1t merely served
to advertise an advantageous portion
of the loan. The Federal stocks
would be just as much exempt from
State taxation without that clause,
as they are with it. In the case of
Weston VS.. The City Cornell of Charles
ton, q Peters, 462, it was decided,
by the Supreme Court of the the
United States, that no fax can be
laid on Federal stocks by State
authority without violation of the
Constitution. Chief Justice Mar
shall. who delivered the opinion OF
the Court, said: The American peo-
pie have conferred the power of bor-
rowing money on their Government,
and, by making that Government
supreme, have shielded it's action, in
the exercise ofthis power, from the
action of the local governments.
:'The right to tax the contract to
any extent, when made, must operate
upon the power to borrow before it
is exercised and have sensible III
fuence on the contract. The extent
of this influence depends on the will
of distinct government. To any
extent, however inconsiderable, it is
burden on the operations of COY
ernment. 1t may be carried to an
extent which shall arrest them en-
tirely. .f
"The tax on government stock is
thought by the court to be tax on
the contract, tax on the power to
borrow money on the credit of the
United States, and consequently TO be
repuqnant TO the Constitution. F"
1t will be seen, therefore, that the
exemption in question has alsoayS
eristed,, that it results from the Con-
stitution, and is superior legislation;
that it was only advertised, not enac-
ted, by insertion in the loan law.
What, in the opinion OF sound law
yers, the State Governments may do,
is to tax the income arising from
these stocks, at the same rates as-in-
come from other sources; and tax
the shares in banks, as it taxes other
personal property. Tne stocks are
taxable by the Federal Government,
though exempt from State taxation.

SIDE SHOWS OF DEMOCRACY.

Time was when the Democracy had
a principal show to exhibit their
''time honored principles" but in
the last five eventful years it has so
far dwindled away, as to leave but a

sorted to N order to divert the at

The first of these side shows is

of no particular interest to the peo-
pie of the State. Why? Answer.
There are over four hundred thou

the elective franchise were extended
to the negroes, it would confer the
right of suffrage on about five thou
sand adult colored men.
This five Thousand would be still
