The soldiers remember that the con
trolling wing pf the Democratic party
inetiga,cd u cNil war
,Weremembcr that the Democrats Of
the North aided, abetted, encouraged
ahdslstainpd that war against us. -
4Yn'hNe Hottorgotten that the DEM
ocrylip lealerscricd Peace, Peace, when
there could be no peace that would not
involve The ruin of the ls1pubIlc,
AYd remember that snclr men as
Thurman & Co., encouraged and pro-
msttd desctti6n, aud expressed the hope
that Union soldiers going South might
Rergr. .retua dlire.
We know that the Democratic rebel
lion, cost the nation more than three
thousand millions Of dollars, and car
ried mourning and de$olalipn into every
loyal household in the North.
We Hive not forgotten that 'Ohio's
Democrats u ere among The most prom
inent, in National Convention at Chlca-
90 in 1854. which declared in favor Of
a cessation Of ,hostiliiies, and resolved
that the war for the Union was a failure.
We can. never forget that leading
Democrats in heSorth instigated plots
iiithe interest of rebellion, conspired to
release rebe prisoners from conline-
nent, and to surrender Northern cities
to the tender mercies Of released rebel
prisoners. r. so- .. =
True soldiers know and will always
remember that it was the demonlzed
spirit OF the Democratic party that
neryed tie arm of j. Wilkes Booth to
assassinate Abraham Lincoln, and that
this same Democratic spirit was incens-
cd because Mrs. Surratt was proved
guilty and hanged, and that it now
sympatllizes with John II, Surratt,u :.
we recollect that every Democratic
State but Delaware and New Jersey
went out of the Union, and those two
would have done SO if the power OF the
Union army and the Republicans ol
those States had not prevented. II
Maryland was an exception it was only
because the rebel Legislature was ar,
rested by military force, and the State
held by the Union armies, in dehanc'
ofths Democrats of the State.
We do not forget that whilc Demo
cratic States went out of the Union, ant
the controlling force Of the Democratic
party was exerted to it's utmost for the
success of the rebellion, and the conse-
quent destruction of the Union, the
Republican party proved loyal to the
Unioii in every trial and emergency
We shall never forget that while thu
Dcfhocfaticg Congressman, Governors
and Generals violated their oaths, aban
doned the American flag, and went int
the Confederate Congress, and Confed
crate Armies, no Republican Congress
men, Governors or Generals turned
trnitors and went with the rebels.
We remember that all tho Republican
States remained loyal and exerted thei
entire power for the defeat Of the re
beIlion, and its members stood tn,
brunt Of the war, was always firm, loya
and hopeful, while the Democratic par
tyof the North, as well as South, wa
the arsenal, fortress, and nursery o
Treason. We know that since the re
bellion was crushed by force Of arms
and true statcsmen and patriots arc try
ing to bind up the bleeding wounds @
the nation and secure lasting peace, tn
Democratic party is the enemy to wis
reconstruction on basis of Truth
Liberty, and Justice We remcmbe
that while Republicans always rejoicc'
over rebeldefeats, and rebel surrendors
the Democratic party rejoiced oysru
when wesyere defeated or compelled t.
surrender, and now that VIC have beel
taaght wisdom in the school of expert
ence let us not allow side issues to di
vide us, but let us go to the ballot bO
with unbroken ranks and vote that tn
Rep0bliean or great Union party sha
remain dominant in our noble Buckley
State aud that the Democratic part
shall eat the bitter apples of defeat fol
ever. Columbus ReDnbhc.
