Unequal Laws.

The Carl Schurz resolution ut Chicago,
adopts "thc immortal principles of the Declare.
ton OF Independence" Of which the foremost
sets forth the rightful equality of men before
the law. ss
The second Chicago resolution is a flat
denial of equality. The Northern white, it
says, may deny suffrage to the blacks. The
Southern white shall hot This is equality!
The Northern white it says shall distribute
suffrage as he plcases; each State properly
controlling its own distribution Tile South
crn white shall not distribute suffrage. Con.
grcss has usurped the power from each State
and will maintain it's usurpation. This is-
equality e.
Wholesale disfranchisement of whites has
been worked at the South by the laws of Con-
grcss. But nobody has Lccn lisfranchised
who would vote to keep Radicalism in power.
This is equality! .
One law for tho North another law for the
South on the same subject This is eaus,ity.
No Negro suffrage ut the North, where it
has been uniformly rejected by the people fox
themselves. Wholesale negro suffrage at the
South where it is uniformly dreaded. This
is eInality
No negro suffrage at the North, where 80
few are the negroes that their Ignorance could
do but little harm through the ballot. Whole.
sale negro suffrage at the South where the
negroes are half or nearly half the population,
and where their ignorance working through
the ballot may and must do it's utmost harm.
This is equality!
Gratitude demands this, say the CHICAGO
Radicals, yet larger proportion of Northern
blacks fought in the war thnn of the Southern
blacks. The Northern black is denied tho
suffrage. The Southern black has it thrust
upon him. This is equality!
Gratitude demands this, say the Chicago
lsadicals-but gratitude to whom and for
what Gratitude to the millions of Southern
blacks who helped the rebellion to the last
hour of its life, who had not pluck enough to
strike blow themselves for freedom but now
have freedoms highest privilege thrust upon
them! Gratitude to the few thousand blacks
who fought the rebellion, but to whom suffrage
is denied? This is equality.
Senator Doolittlc proposed ON amendment
to the last reconstruction bill giving ballot
to every black soldier, proportioning gratitude
thus to service. The Radical Senate rujeote,
it, for that was equality
