AtrocIous but True LA Leading Jacobin
Lays Down the Platform!

|
embracing the real platform of the Black
Republican or American Jacobin party is
given by Bingham, Jacobin member Of
Congress from Ohio to the Mack'acheek
Press (Gen. Don Patt's paper). 1t is uu.
mistakable in its language, and full and
free Endorsement Of what we have often pro.
claimed to be the aims and purposes Of the
Jacobin party. Let every Republican read the
principles here proclaimed by Bingham, one
of the mouth. pieces of the party OF blood
and bate. It takes the inspiration from
Governor OgIesby, Of Illinois, another
Jacobin, who also stands high with the
Black Republicans, but who although wordy,
has not had the moral pluck to fa.bom the
depths Of crime like Bingham, the murderer
of poor Mrs. Surrat,. For open arocity, it
rivals any publication ever made in the
English language, and cannot but call forth
the earnest and active indignation Of every
true patriot in the land.
The people, who ever purpose 10 do right,
may here see from the highest authority
what are the real aims and the inspiration Of
the foul party in power. But, thank God,
there is yet open door of escape for the
people, and that they will yet avail them
selves of the opportunity Of crushing the
serpent fastening it's coil upon the nation, we
have no reason TO doubt, while We place our
trust in them
But read this and pause and reflect:
"You think we will fail in November be.
cause this is America Instead of France, and
the nineteenth instead of the eighteenth
century. Let US compare notes.
We have got the most popular general Of
the age for our leader.
Match him
He is the absolute commander Of the Uni
ted States army, and holds unlimited sway
in ten of the late United States.
Match him
lie has absolute control Of the freedmen's 8
bureau il the South ; its agents are bis
subalterns, and will obey his behesls.
Match them!
We have absolute control over the ne,
groes Of the South, and their gallant North
ern lea ers.
electoral vote will he cast, our loyal leglsla'
lures sh all cast it for Grant
Match it !!
Where we know the vote would be Dem
ocratic (rebel). we will not count the vote.
Can you match it
We have on our side all the capitalists OF
The cast the bond holders the two hundred
per cent. wood screw mandatory, and all
the other manufacturing good things Of the
country the national bank corporations; the
and-grant corporations and all these have
effected a combination with the loyal men Of
the South, and have the negroes in their play
thus forming coalition that has no
parallel.
Match it!
We have the Grand Army Of the Repub
lie marshaled by trained leaders, and all
sworn to "punsh treason with death" In
every post throughout, the land, there lie one
or more cases OF rifles and accouIemenls
complete.
Match it
We have the loyal Congress- that meets in
September, and will hold its session until
after the October elections. If these cleo
tons indicate that ,hero is danger that loyal
ty is about to be ovethrown, that Congress
knows its duty, and will not shrink from per-
forming it,
Match it
THE party in power is the Government
says Oglesby. Andrew Johnson being
traitor to bis party, "is traitor to the Gov
DEATH" says the G. A. Il. The Tarpeian rock
is near the Capitol; let A. J. beware or
September will hurl him beadlong."
Oglesby has gven'us the key.n of the
contest "Opposition to the party in Power
is treason to the Government" The G. A. r..
gives the response: "the punishment Of trai.
tors Is DEATH" This is the doctrine of 1898.

The souls of Lincoln, John Brown and Thad
Stevens are walking out upon the uncolumn'
ed air, bringing to more ears than those OF
Herndon and Hatfield mysterious whisper
ings of the Infinite. |. too, have heard them;
they are Blood! HavocX This country can
not be saved until Jacobinism runs its course;
it must have blood to appease the skates OF
heroes slain who walk the echoess shores OF
Eternity unavenged.
Machiavelli has said there are but two
ways of dealing with rebellion. The one is
to exterminate them, root, stock, and branch.
"Cruely, to be successful, must be thorough
and relentless" We bave attempted a mid
die ground heretofore. and have failed. Our
temporizing, mild cruelty, has only exasper.
ated. forgiveness, at first, would have healed
the breach; now, it will aggrava,e it. Death
and determination can alone succeed now.
We must have them. Our civilization De-
mands them; the people demand them; sans
cullottisma demands them; the wealth OF
Puritan New England demands them; the
success of our party demands them.
Let no squeamsh sentimentalist hesitate
for fear be might be drafted into the army
of exterminalop or for fear he might fail to
find Cossacks and Croats TO do the butcher
inc, The loyal negroes will shoot disloya'ls's
at ten cents per bead, and Congress will give
The arms. Yours truly,
J. A. BINGHAM.
