Treason in the Chicago Democratic
Convention.

Treason in the Chicago Democratic
Convention.
Pollard, in his Southern History of the
Rebellion, says:
"No doubt can rest in history that, at
the time OF the Chicago Convention, the
Democratic party in the North had pre-.
pared secret programme Of operations,
the final and inevitable conclusion OF
which was the Acknowledgement OF the
independence Of the Confederate States.
II was proposed to get TO this conclusion
by distinct and successive steps. 30 as not
to alarm too much the Union sentiment
OF the country. The first step was to be
tho proposition of the "Union ne it was"
in Convention of the States; If that was
voted down, then the proposition of q
new principle of federation, limited TO The
foreign relations and 10 the revenue; il
that was rejected, then the proposition OF
an inter confederate Union, to preserve,
as far as possible, by on extraordinary
league, the American prestige; and. II all
these propositions, intended as successive
tests OF the spirit OF the South, were to
fail, then at last the independence OF the
Confederate States, made sine qua non,
was to be conceded by the Democratic
party OF the North as the last resort Of
paciication, and The one Of two alterna.
tiycs where their choice could no longer
hesitate. 1t will be seen from this sketch
OF the programme that the design Of the
democratic party was 10 get the North on
the naked issue Of the war and separa.

Notwithstanding the above comes from
n Rebel and therefore questionable
source, we see no reason 10 doubt It's au.

controlled by traitors, open and disguised
and treason breathed in every word Of the
platform they adopted. OF the treason
