REPTBlICAN STATE TICkCT
rAe Truc Priaeiple.

Suffrage is a natural right. AID not
privilege. j, is simply The act o.
indicating the viii Of The citizen. I,
is the great failing of our goyernrHen:
that only portion Of those governed
are permitted 10 exercise this right.
since no government can be truly re-
publican in form which deprives any
portion Of its responsible citizens of =
voice in directing H. The leaders Of
the Revolution clearly ccmprehended
this principle and based tha, most re-
markahle political document of all
ages, the Declaration Of Indepen-
dence. .qmarely upon it Upon tha,
founds;ion the battles for liberty were
fought and the victory ron bu. v hen
the great work Of erecting govern
mental euperstructure came to be per
formed, custom and precedent assert
cd their influence, and the grand idea
OF universal suffrage was lost sight
of. The taint Of ari.tocracy rested up
on the great work. and entailed upon
US not only slavery in all its an:i-re-
publican deformiiy, bat terrible war
which was but the outgrowth Of Eng
lish nobility incorporated in spiri, up
on olr American constitutions. Had
the gfea; Declaration. upon which
our nationality was won. been the
guiding star in our governmental or.
ganixation. giving TO every response
BILE citizen an equal voice In the State.
not only would slavery have been i'm
possible, but our country would have
entered upon . career of prosperity
which would hare been illilnitable. 1t
is the great work OF the Republican
party to restore the government to s
truly republicaa basis, and thus in-
sure its future glory and prosperity.
In pursuance Of this work the Repnb.
lican party Of Iowa has incorporated
in its Platform the truly republican
idea of making no test of color in con.
ferring by lav the rights Of citizen.
ship. The Democratic party, on the
contrary, which champions the aristo-
cratic principles 6rst implanted upon
American soil at jamestown, and sub.
seqnently diffused throughout the
South as the ruling elements in poll
tics and society. exhibits utter con-
tempt for the truly democratic princi
ples Of the Declaration. and favors the
adoption Of arisiocratic distinctions in
government by excluding the negro
from the exercise Of lis natural rights
Of citizenship. No one who honestly
favors a republican form Of govern
ment can possibly hesitate moment
in his choice between the two politi-
cal parties Of Iowa. We believe there
are many Democrats who have rem
dcred blind support to principles
~hich their better judgments disap-
proved. Nov that their leaders seek
TO bird them down to those ideas Of
sristocracy which had their frnest
support in slavery, they should no
longer hesitate to discard them for
ever aud to unite themselves With the
party Of progress.
All friends Of pure republican
government should unite earnestly in
furthering the great work of abolishing
all class distinctions and in conferring
equally upon all responsible citizens
the right to say how and by whom
they shall be governed.
Buchanan County bulletin and guardian., 1867-08-16

Let US suppose that ten thousand
persons Of different ages, sexes, colors
and na,ionalities, suddenly find them
selves thrown together upon strange
territory, without government Of any
kind. They find it necessary for
their safety and interest to establish
certain rules and regulations termed
laws, and to choose persons to carry
those laws into effect. Who Of the
ten thousand are naturally entitled 70
voice in making those laws and
choosing those rulers? Answer this
correctly and you will have answered
the whole suffrage question correctly.
IL il the tall men or the short men :
Il it the men with black hair or light
hair? Is it the men OF the East or
the men of the West. Of this nation or
that nation? Il it the persons who
happen to be of the male sex or the
fem lie sex, Of the dark skin or the
light skin ? IL it the persons who can
read Hebrew and Greek or those who
can only read their native Englisb, or
German or French, or who cannot
read At alls Or is it all these classes,
regardless Of race, color or sex?
There might be among the ten thons-
and, insane persons who would OF
course not be entitled TO voice in
establishing a government to which
they could not be responsible, and %
with idiots. Again there would be
percentage Of cl,iIdreo whose immatn-
rity would naturally debar them from
the exercise ofriyhts which appertain
only 70 maturity. But aside from
these classes. which form natures ex-
ccptions, who arc to be excluded !
Are not all equally concerned? Are
not all equally responsible? i not
personal interest and Happiness just
A. dear, just a. sacred, and just as
much right TO ono as 70 another ?
Then has not each individual as much
right to endeavor to sccure personal
interest and happiness by voice in
'he government a. any other: What
,ower could ngliffulIy give the fran !
