to those who are looking for the in

set aside the reconstructed State Gov.
ernments:
"Under this article ofthe Constitu-
ton it rests with Congresa 10 decide
what government is the established
one in State. For n the United
States guarantee to each State a re-
publican government. Congress must
necessarily decide what governments
is established in the State before it
can determine whether it is establish
ed or not. And when the Senators
and representative Of State are ad-
mitted to the councils of the Union.
the authority of the Government un-
der which they are appointed, as well
as its republican character, is recog-
nized by the proper constitutional au-
,hority. And its decision il binding
upon Every other department Of the
Government, and could rot be ques-
toned in a judicial tribunal"
