The Chase Faction Negro Suffrage
The yagabond Sanders ON Southern
Rights.
Two remarkable political manifestoes will be
found in another part Of this paper. The one
is addressed "To the Friends of Humanity and
Justice" and comes from the radical negro
suffrage faction of which Chief Justice Chase
is the chief engineer and Presidential champion;
and the other is from the rebel vagabond and
outlaw, George N. Sanders, in Canada, addressed
s'To the Patriots of the South"-i. e. the rebels
on Southern rights and the way to secure those
rights by Southern votes. The negro suffrage
circular unquestionably lays down the cam
paign issue of Judge Chase for the Presidency,
and we think it quite probable that some such
Northern and Southern copperhead and rebel
programme as that suggested by Sanders will
guide radical Presidential movement on the
other extreme.
The negro suffrage manifesto, emanating
doubtless from the getters-up Of the late Cooper
Institute meeting in honor of General Grant,
starts from the text-"Shall colored loyal citi-
zens of the United States be deprived Of the
vote while it is given to white traitors?' "Shall
traitors (whtes) be rewarded for their treason
by giving them the franchise, while loyal men
(the Southern blacks) are punished for their
loyalty by taking it away?" These questions
are repealed in various notifications, and then
follows the assertion that ''the proposition TO
deprive the loyal colored citizens of their vote,
and to put over and against them the sole
power of the State governments (South) into
the hands of rebels, is the great measure OF re-
construction proclaimed by President Johnson"
The question is next put-"Shall this proposed
measure of the present administration be sane
toned and sustained" And then this call ls
made upon the people. "Let the people an
swer.'
