DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION No. q,

The Second Democratic State Con-
vention of the campaign was held at
Columbus on Thursday last. The only
difference between tho Long & Cory
and the Vallandigham & Thurman
Conventions, is that the latter are less
bold than tho former in announcing
their principles and purposes. They
both have in view the triumph of the
principles Of the late rebellien, and the
only difference Is that while ono de.
clares boldly for State Sovereignty,
which implies tho right of secession,
the other covers up its principles un-
der spocious resolutions.
We publish, in another column, the
nineteen resolutions of this last Con
vcntion. The great fact Of tho centu'
ry, tho Abolition Of Slavery, is ignor'
cd, and II demand is made for immedi
alto representation of the rebel States il
Congress There are four resolution
devoted to keeping down the unlortu
aato African, declaring that ho shal
not vote, that ho is inferior to tn
whites, that this is white mans go
vernmcnt, aud that his emigration t
lOhio shall be discouraged, ..
Tho 18th resolution, four or fv
lines in length, praises tho valcr Of tn
soldiers and promises to remembc
them for their devotion to the country
This is all concerning tho great wor
which they have accomplished, N
thanks to them for putting down th
rebellion, but praise Of their valOr

CENERAL COx,s SPEECH.

We lay before our readers in this
issue the speech of General Cox, deliv-
cred at Warren. 1t was the opening
speech of the campaign, and is an able
exposition of the Generals views upon
the great questions of the day, His
resume of the reasonable history of
the Democratic party. should be read
and kept constantly in mind during
the campaign. To this party tho de-
feated rebels are looking for the politi-
lcal success Of their principles, having
been vanquished in war, and the ro
lbellion is 10 60 on in a new arena
'The question to be determined now
says General Cox, is "whether the
fruits of our long struggle shall be
wrested from us by o combination o.
4 THE defeated rebels at the South, with
the defeated disloyalists at the North
He inclincs to the opinion that th'
conservative or loyal party of thu
South will collect around it sufficien
of the unsettled population, to give i
Scontrol Of affairs, and that this party
Twill operate cordially with the Uniol
party of tho North.
We commend especially to our read
ers what the General says of the re
responsibility and preservation Of tn
Union party:
"But until time has done its worh
the safety OF the country must depen
absolutely upon the efficiency and tn
power of the Union organization.-
The body Of loyal men throughout th
land must keep 80 closely compacte
2and so thoroughly organized that thei
T. power cannot be opposed, and the
political action must be made to cor
troll the country and its destinies."

TO THE RETUnNnD soLD1EHs

Nearly all tho gallant men, save
those who fell in tho service, which,
Fairfield county sent out to save thcI
Union, are among us again enjoying!
the peace of their homes and the con. !
ggratuations of their friends. They
sare quietly dropping back into the
ways and tho business Of civil life, and
! the civilian is absorbing the soldier
But their influence in politics is to be,
4 if anything, greater than when they
were in the field.
They are to exert great influence
politically, and the result of that in |
gauence will be good or evil, as they
may WELD it for one party or the 9TH
ger. The two parties are the great
AUnion party, which administered the
government and supported the sol
tdicrs during the war, and tho Copper
shead party, or that organization which
ecalls itself the Democracy. Between
Gthese two the soldiers have to choose

Ena!ion. 1t labored INCREASINGLY day
Nand night to furnish men and means
for the army, and to encourage and
lsu stain tho soldiers. 1t did this en-
Enthusiastically and from pure and un,
Eselfsh patriotism. The other opposed
1.-The war for tho Union, and fought
Eagainst overy measure and every Of
Gfort to crush tho rebellion. There
Enever was a call for men to fill your
Franks, that they did not do all in theil
power to discourage enlistments, nor ;
draft that they did not condemn, op
gpose, and in many places, resist, open
lily and with force. There never wa

DEMAND FOR UNCON-
STITUTIONAL ACTS.
The Democracy which met at Co.
|lumbus on Thursday last declared, in
the l4th Resolution Of their platform,
that it was the duty of State Leglsla-
lures to tax United States stocks.
This party which processes to bethe
especial guardian and champion of the
Constitution, does not hesitate, when
there appears an opportunity to make
i political capital by it, to demand the
8enactment of unconstitutional State
flaws.
In 1919, an attempt was mado in
Maryland to tax the Government Sc
Acurities held by the Bank of the Unit
I led States. The case was carried to the
Supreme Court, and Chief Justice Mar
7 shal, who delivered the opinion ofthe
4Court, held that "a State Government
has no right to tax the means employ
led by tho General Government to So
Acure its constitutional powers
a In 1929, in the case Of Weston ps
Hthe City Council Of Charleston, the
kSupreme Court again decided tha
KUnited States Stocks could not be tax
ed by State authority. Chief justice
+ Marshal again delivered the opinion o
Nthe Court which held, that "a tax OF
Rstock of the United States, held by al
Eindiyidual citizen Of State, is ta'
on the power to borrow money on th
credit of tho United Ststos, and canno
be levied By or under the authority V
State consistently ,ctth the Constitution
In 1S42, in tho case of Dobbin v'
CORN, the Supreme Court, all tn
tJudgcs, including the Democratic
Judge, Taney, concurring, again dc
2cidcd, that any tax upon any agen
lin the employment ofthO United States
Il or on its account, by any State, is un
Unconstitutional and void, thus roafiirm
Hing tho principles formerly laid down
n Again, In New York an attempt wa
Hnade to tax Government stocks he'll
Hby tho banks. The Supreme Cour
III cid, Judge Nelson, tho Democrat
'Emembcr Of tho Court delivering th
Kopinion, and Judge Tancy concurrinI
'Nl-"Stock Of tho United States is ne
'Hsubject to taxation under tho laws
y Ia Stato." "a State law for th0
Hpurposo- is unconstitutional, whethc
1t imposes the tax on United State
stocks 60 aomine, or includes it in tn
u" aggregate of the taxpayers, propert,
. to bo valued, like tho rest, at i
worth. '' ..' . ....'.
George r, Curtis, the great DEM
j cratic constitutional lawyer, in lS6
was consulted by tho President of u
y Metropolitan Bank ofNow York in +
. terence to'thc taxation ofGovernmel
Stocks by State authority. His OPT
! ion, as stated by tho Now York Worl
' is that "the National Banks are nc
4 as corporations, taxable by State a
: thority, and that stocks Of the Unit
!. States are not subject TO taration BY {
= States" ..r.
Thus, tho Democracy, which for 70
years has clamorod 80 inccssanL
against violations Of tho Constitutio
! is demanding the violation of that

that the loyal men of the country will

have been the eucmies of the nation.--

tho policy and habitual frame Of mind

indisposition to detcrmin in advance
