These are the plain, simple and unexaggeraed
points of the two plans proposed. We defy any
one to deny or dispute the one or the other Tho
President wishes to retain for the South the cleo
tive power FOR President and Congress that it had
under slavery when the white man was empow-
cred to vote both for himself and for the slave.-
Congress demands that white man In the North
ern and Western States shall have just as much
and no more elective power for President and Con-
gress than the white man at the South has, Ne
gro suffrage has nothing TO do with either plan
proposed, andthose who pretend to or assert that
it has are endeavoring TO deceivethe people. AZ
