Senttr do not intend 10 see the Presi-

who voted for me are removed, IL viii be a
gross Injustice, for every one of them is a

cam, the latter being opposed to extending
the franchise or in auy way holding out
hope to the men who had joined the wrong
side during the war, Of an era Of peace and
brotherly feeling. The platform of the lib
erals who elected me was bss ID on tht
resolution offered by Otrl Schurz, a; the
Chicago Convention, aud which was made
part of the platform on which Grant tough
