After four years of failure" to
carry Iowa over to the side of slave
holders rebellion, the Democratic
State Central Committee, consisting
Of Laurel Summers, w. Ct. Haun, &C.,
have issued call for Convention
at Des Moines on the Gath of August
to nominate State ticket. The call
is not made to Democrats, but to {" all
persons opposed to striking the word
white from the article in the State
Constitution, and in favor of sustain.
ing President johnson in his plan Of
reconstruction Of the States recently
in rebellion, as has been promulga-
ted by the President" If the President
should declare himself officially 10 fa-
vor of negro suffrage. the copperhead
party of this State will be again in its
favorite attitude of occupying both
sides Of the question at issue. We
all recollect how patronizingly this
class of men stood by the Admins.
tration " at the commencement of the
war, when President Lincoln was
supposed to be conservative on the
slavery question. They reckoned with
out their host then, as We think they do
now. ia ra,... .aHa
The Democratic platform, as thus
foreshadowed, means, inversely, that
traitors shall be restored to power.
When the question comes fairly up
before the people of Iowa whether nc
groes or traitors shall be allowed to
vote, it will not take the people long to
decide it, and we can well afford to
abide by the wisdom Of that decision.
A secret grand conclave of the Col
den-Circle and Copperhcad leaders of
Iowa was held at Davenport last
week. We happened to be in the
city at the time, and saw number OF
the old party hacks there, looking as
though they were out on sheep
stealing expedition. 1t is understood
that they finally agreed to make no
other issue in the approaching cam.
paign, except that Of anti-negro suf-
frage. In order to get the soldiers
into the arrangement as far as posi-
BILE, they are to be promised all the Of
fees. and the leaders of the Copper
head party are to take back seats for
Q while. keeping up the party organi-
cation merely by way Of laid and
comfort TO the military movement
for breaking up the Republican party.
The attempt to use the soldiers as
catspaws to haul secesh chestunts out
of the fire will signally fail, in our
opinion. --NUscatiae Journal.
