THE aITIfATION.

During Court week we conyerued with men
from ell parts Of the county upon the prospects
Of the constitutional amendment, end and but
little objection to IT, Nearly all the Unlon men
win vote for Il, and. strange ns Il may appear,
some Democrats viii alAo vote for IT, The great
cry about dlsfranchaIng 90 900 soldiers, who went
with Sherman TO the sen, is fully understood In
our county. The proposed amendment only pro-
poses to odsffanehlse these who deserted IL lime OF
sOay. Hence It does not reach those who came
home without leave, after the war was over
soldlssp who desert their Gag In tImo Of war,
forfeit their lives in all nations. Desorters only
i've by The elemeney Of Che Government Then,
It has been abuhdantly settled that no man can be
dISfranebIssd e aererteF until he has been con,
vIcied. Not single man In jackson county hal
aver been convicted Of desertIon, and we doubi
whether The amendment will reach hny men In
the Stats Of Chic.
The soldiers Of jackson county Me not Of the
deserting kind. Afler the war was ever, oul
ScglmeHt, the SD, were brought to Portsmouth
bat wers nct permitted to como home to see the
families. AfteFwards they We're taken to Ar

thelf orders, and came home with honorable dis
charges. Hence, IN our eouats, we are no
much troubled shout The Acknowledgement 0

Hon. sAMUJEI. MCKEE.

Some months ago we quoted some remarks
made by this gentleman, in which he expressed
himself against negro suffrage. We then said that
he would be beaten for Congress, in the 9th Ken
tueky District The election took place on the
first Saturday in this month, and resulted as We
predicted, He was beaten by his rebel opponent
from one thousand to fifteen hundred.
We do hope that Mr.. Mckee, and all of his
faith, may sometime learn that there can be no
middle ground mo compromise with wrong.
Let there be no distinction in the constitutions
and laws Of this country on account of race, color
or condition.
If the negroes in the ninth district had been
permitted to vote, and Mr. Mckee had been their
friend, as he should have been, the result would
have been quite different. We hope some on this
side of the Ohio river may learn a lesson from the
fate of Mr.. Mckee

THE GRAND ARMY OF THE
REPUBLIC.

Why Is II that this organization, composed
wholly Of soldiers, should call forth the continued
and bitter denuncatlons Of the eOpperheOd press,
when the same press Is so wonderfully shocked
that the proposed constitutional amendment pro.
poses to dlsfranchlse soldlers2 The copperheads
have little to say against that part OF the amend
ment which proposes to permit negroes to vote.
They are compelled to acknowledge the justice
of permitting those TO vote who are taxed to
support the Govsrnment-who fought TO main
tain H. and who are compelled to submit to the
laws of the land but to dislranchise $4,000 sol
dlers, that Is where 1t hurts tho copperheads.
And yet, these copperheads cannot say anything
too mean about an organization composed entire
ly of soldiers. HUf
This seeming inconsistency can bo explained.
No man can become a member Of he Grand Aray
unless he has an honorable discharge. And no man
will be dlslranchlscd by the constitutional amend
ment who has such discharge In other words,
no deserter can become q member Of the Grand
Army. Deserters, traitors, draft sneaks, 'tke-
daddIers, or in other words, copperhead sbl-
dlers-these are the fellows so dearly beloved by
the cops Hence, an organization composed Of
true soldiers, Is mallgned by a rebel press.

INCONSISTENT.

We have received the first number of
a new Democratic paper started in
Pomeroy, by J. V. Stevens. 1t is far
above the average of ofDemocratic papers,
but it contains some of the glaring in
consistencies of modern Democracy.
In the first place, it is called "The Star
Spangled Banner" Then it has as its
motto: "United we stand Divided
we fall" Now the idea of a paper that
supports the party which fought four
years to destroy the Union and pros
trate the flag of our country, and then
assume such a name and motto, is one
of the strange inconsistencies of modern
sham Democracy.
Supporting party that denies all
rights to one-sixth of the whole people
of this country, this new paper has the
audacity thus to talk of human rights:
The unwarrantable course that Congress has
pursued for nearly three years in persisting to tax
one-fourth Of the States Of this Union without al
lowing them the right Of representations right
which the Declaration of Independence declares
to be nestlmable 10 freemen, and formidable to
tyrants only--is unworthy OF the head and heart
of American lawgivers, and burning disgrace to
the American people.
