BOTH SIDES!
THE JOINT DISCUSSION !!
Bad Night but good Audience.

d.
A political discussion between Hon.
Allen Warden, of Lafayette, Republican
candidate for Presidential Elector in this
(thrd) Congressional District, and Hon.
Moses NJ Strong, of Mineral Point, who
holds a like position on the Democratic
ticket, took place at the courthouse in
this place on Tuesday evening last. The
weather was unpleasant, but respectable
audience filed the room and gave close at
tention to both speakers.
Col. Thomas Stevens and John Ellwood,
Esq, were elected chairmen. Mr.. Ell
wood declined. Tga 9a
1t was moved that Mr.. E. B. Goodsell
Of Highland, act as chairman "on the
part of the Democracy The motion
prevailed, and Mr., Goodesll also declined (!
An awkward silence ensued, during which
Mr. G. was button holed, and finally con-
clude to act
Mr.. Strong occupied the first half hour,
the burden of his remarks being "the
Constitution" Andy Johnson, in his
drunkest moments, never had more pro,
found reverence for that document than
had the speaker. The Republican party
and platform were based on the Declare
tion Of Independence; the Democratic
party stood upon the Constooshun."
lie considered the reconstruction acts
unfair, ungenerous; most glaring injus-
tice being done by the clause which pre-
vents any one who had once taken the
oath of allegiance to. the government, and
subsequently participated in rebellion from
being registered A voice. "Served
them right! Here Mr. Strong reminded
the chairmen of their duty to preserve or
der, and the Colonel reminded the audience.
At this, q gentleman stated that he had
attended several political meetings, and
never saw better order.
lfr. s. gave way for Mr.. Warden, who
was warmly greeted. He knew that the
Democratic party "stood on the Consti
tuition" They stood on it at Montgomery
and TRAMPLED 1T IN THE DUST
The Democrats were death on the mig
gers but the sentiment of loyal hearts
and one that should be written on every
dewdrop and murmured in every rill-is
that it is better, safer, nobler, more God
like, to give political power to a black
man with white heart, than white mar
with black hearth That though the
blacks had had no favors in or under the
Government, yet their hearts beat ever to
the music of the Union, &c.
He spoke in warm terms of Grant
whose name is written in every true heart
in the nation. In conclusion the speaker
called for three cheers for Gen. Grant
which were given with a win that shook
the building
Nr. Strong took up the broken Thread
Of his discourse, and spoke further of re
construction measures, boards of registra
ton, etc. The latter he said were com
osed chiefly of niggers and mean whites

OF IOWA COUNTY.
Dodgeville chronicle. [volume] (Dodgeville, Wis.) 1862-current, 1868-10-09

He believed that he was better than a
niger, and unless he should " meet with a
change" ne should always think so.
From this he. passed to the financial
question, and occupied the remainder Of
his time on it alone. He explained the
difference between tweedle-dee and twee-
dle-dum so plainly that any school-boy
could understand it.
He told his hearers that they knew the
Republican party, and he imagined that
this was sufficient to induce them to vote
against continuing ii in power. "You do
not know the Democratic party. You can
be no worse off than you are now"
All this was great mistake The
people do know the Democratic party to
their sorrow, and very properly hold IT
mainly responsible for the evils that are
upon US. They know, but dare not trust
it!
The speaker closed by advising his hear
ers to vote candidly and Understandings,
IN accordance with their own conscience,
their duty to themselves, their country,
and their God. That is just what they
WILL do, and the result will be an over
whelming majority for our noble and be-
loved leaders, GRANT and COLFAX.
