That the Union party will meet the issue
squarely aud promptly, now that it is PFC
seDted to them, We cannot for moment
doubt. With the exception of some few
weak minded members. who cannot properly
appreciate the progress that has been made
within the last few years, it viii unanimously
sustain the proposed amendment The De-.
mocrsey, which has been trying to force this
issue upon US, can now do their worst in the
matter and defeat US if they can. But well
they know the inevitable march of public
feeling, and not single Democrat in the
Legislature of the State voted in favor Of
submitting it TO the popular vote. . rs

! The Legislature has at last voted to sub
NIT to the people the proposed amendment
to the Constitution securing Impartial Suff-
rage in Ohio. The first line Of works has
been carried after aprolonged struggle. Now
the main point is to be wouJ- and here we
may expect the fight to be still more bitter
and determined. The friends of Equal
Rights have their summers work laid out
before them. And let it pc remembered
always that there is no argument against
this proposition. We must say that in q
somewhat extensive ACQUAINTANCE with Dem
ocratic papers aud Democratic talk on this
subject we have never heard any thing urged
sgainst it that candid man would deem
worthy the name of honest argument. A
wide-reaching, unreasoning prejudice is the
harp of a thousand strings on which the
opposition playa prejudice the meanest
that a man can yield to,--the prejudice
against color. To cry "niggerp is easy, but
no fair minded man will echo that cry or ia II
into the1eadiug strings of those who have
no better arguments. r.
We are heratily glad that the colored vote
is so small that its accession to the dominant
party is no overshadowing reason for adopt
ing the amendment. We are not dragged
down TO that selfish argument. 1t is a
question of principle, pure and simpls as free
from 'policy as any question can be.

the people for their decision. We rejoice
that the gauntlet of battle has been thrown,
and that the great contest in the coming cam
paign will be for a principle worthy Of the
keenest blsde and the brightest steel. We
are content that the Union party should
bear the odium' of impartial suffrage, We
had rather suffer defeat with Right, than
revel in victory with the Wrong. But we
do not anticipate defeat We have too much
confidence in the people to believe that they
will suffer themselves to be swerved from

The Dayton Journal puts the Suffrage
question in its true light in an article from
which the following is an extract:
|, a point in the discussion of the question
of submitting to the people whether the
word "white" shall be stricken out of the
Constitution, is worthy of notice. The Cop
perheads, who are continually prating about
submission to the vote Of the people, utterly
refuse to submit this question to their deci-
sion. The Republicans in the Ohio legisla-
tnre simply say, " We are but representa-
tives OF the people. We have no authority
to strike the word white from the Con-
stitution. Let US ask the people if they
want it struck OUT The Gopperheads say,
" No, we won't allow the people to express
themselves on the subject The difference
is simply this: The Republicans say, 'Let
US consult the people. The COpperheads
reply, No. We don't care snap about the
people, We don't waut their opinions, and
won't allow them TO express them.' -'1

IFrom u. Warren ohronicIs. |


The question Of striking the word white g
from the Constitution is to be the main issue
in the political campaign ofls67. The friends
OF political equality, those who are in favor
of elevating rather than trampling upon
their weak and unfortunate fellow men,
must take hold and work earnestly and
untiriDgly from now until the second Tues
day Of October. The opponents of impartial
suffrage will deal in ISLANDERS, in low and
vulgar epithets, in invidious comparison,
satirical illusions, heartless jeeriug of the
poor and helpless, insulting God and human
Iity, but will not employ arguments. The
arguments will be on the liberal side-thrice
armed, our quarrel being just-and the great
mass Of the people, who We belive are ever
ready to yield to the logic of ofincoutrovertable
facts, will on a full dicussion Of the ques-
ton, say, give all men an equal chance be-
fore the law.

There is one consideration which canno,
fail to console the conservatives and the
| timid, aud will certainly not be unpleasant
to the radicals and reformers who have been
at the front for years in this war of ideas.
We refer to the fact that impartial Suffrage
il the last round ofthe ladder, the last engage
ment in tbe waf between Slavery and-F Free
dom, the last ''issue' in which the negro can
by aay possibility be bone of contention
Eqbality before. the. Law is the end Of sgita-
ton and the close Of the contest. That prin-
ciPle triumphant, and the negro will lose his
prominence, settle into his proper place as a
part of the people, and ATTRACTING more atten-
ton thereafter than his white neighbor Of
equal talents. Hence. ultra Conservatives
themselves, as they love quiet, should be
foremost in voting for this final feform. Let
us have an end Of Africa, so that we may
turn our attention to taxes, tariffs and other
piping themes.
