Representatives shall be apporiioned

GLIDING Indians not taxed; but wherever
in any State the elective franchise shall be

or ia any way abridged, except for partic-
ipation in the rebellion or other crimes,
the basis Of representation Of such State
shall be reduced in the proportion in
which the number of such male citizens
not entitled to the franchise shall bear to
the whole number OF male citizens not less
than twrn'y-onc years Of age"
This imposed upon the States universal
outrage, under penalty of unequal repre-
sentation in Congress. We have before
given our views as to the probable work

out conviction by jury, can b. carried by
any law contravening such trial, must be
a grave and doubtful question, ftausht with
apparent extreme impracticability. Some
better means to same end should BE- de-
vised. As to voting for electors Of Presi-
dent and Vice President, this provision
amounts to nothing. Each State shall
appoint, in such manner az the Legisla-
ture may direct" If the people or msm-
beers of the Legislature be disqualified,
they can " direct" Governor. or Judge. or
any body else to appoint electors.
