given up all hopes of her recovery. Her son noticed

Senator Morton ON the Kuklu, RIlI.

In his great speech at st. Louis, Senator
Morton made the following remarks on the
hukluX bill passed by Congress: ....
My friends, this condition of things in
the South demanded a kuklux bill IT Is
one of the best measures that has ever
passed Congress. The moral effect of II
has already been wonderful The mere
passage of that bill has saved hundreds of
lives and thousands of men from toture
ana punishments. That bill is one of the
blessings that has been conferred on the
South. Why, my friends, if there was
any doubt about the constitutionality of
that bill dent think there is. but If
there was would cast it in favor of pro-
tectlng life, liberty and property. TAp-
piause. The courts say that where man
Is on trial you must give the defendant
the benefit of the doubt, if there be one,
and say If there he doubt / will give
the defenseless people of the Sonth the
dement, OF the doubt. Applause am
so used to hearing everything denounced
as unconstitutional that was necessary to
carry on war and preserve this country,
mat am not very much frightened about
IL. Why, you know the argument was
when the war broke out, that there was no
power in the government to coerce a State
TO remain in the Union. That was the
Democratic doctrine everywhere, and the
argument was that in order to prevent n
NlOldtIOu OF Jne constitution, that sacred
instrument, we rather let it be DESTROYED
entirely by the rebellion but [ could
never see the force or proprietv of that
Then 1T was denied that there was any
power to pass a law to issue greenbacls.
Then it was denied that there was any
power to pass the CONSUMPTION act to draft
men into the army. Then it was said that
Lincoln had not the power to issue the
emancipation proclamation. And then il
was SAID that the reconstruction acts were
null and void. Then it was said that Con-
gress was not lawful body and had not
the power to submit these amendments to
the people. And now it is said that this
great measure, protection of life, liberty
and property in the South, is unconstitu-
tional. | have heard this cry of "wolfU
so often that | am not alarmed. In this
case believe the acts We're constitutional
beyond all doubt. But, as said before il
Is great emergency and the case is an ex-
ceptlonal one. There cannot be probably
In TINS generation a stronger cause for the
exercise of extraordinary power than exists
IN TINS very matter of the condition of the
South. And if there be any doubt. for
one snail cast that in favor of protection.
Applause. The kuklux bill is dangerous
only to muderers and robbers. 1t is, how
ever, dangerous to another class, it is dam
gerous to that class of Democratic politi-
clans who have been hoping to be able to
carry all the Southern States for the DEM
ocratic ticket by means of this very KIN
kluX organization.
