explicit, if read carefully. A large
number of persons will probably
propose to take it, but it 1t must be
remembered that the words of the
oath are " "openly and activelg as-
sisted il restoring the State to her
position In the Union" ," Taking
an active part for the purpose OF

State does not meet the case nay,
even voting for the Constitution
does not meet it. The aid 1gust
