i gave to you in my last the evidence
the people BY an investigating commit
tee of Republicans, but which was set
aside by u corrupt and venal Congress to
enable them to continue their nefarious
schemes to control politically sovereign
State. What has been the result? The
people goaded to desperation arose in
their might, and by Coup de ctat," with
scarcely any arms, they swept the bogus
government from existence, and would
have maintained the legitimate ard
clearly elected government had it not
been for the interposition of n President
as corrupt and INSCRIPTIONS rs Kellogg
himself. That interposition was by mil
itary and naval power. 1t becomes the
citizens of this whole country, not Della
ware alone, to look into this action Of
General Grant. Ii it can be done in
Louisiana it can and will be done in any
other State when it becomes necessary
to the success of a political movement.
1t has already been repeated in Alabama.
1t was exercised in New York, and now |
ask, where will it stopp Is this different
from the action of King, OF an Empe-
ror, or a Czar2 Certainly not. Then if
the continued resort to military power
to overcome the will of the people is to
be exercised by the Executive of this
,
monarchy What remains to us of Re
publican institutions-whath have we left
| of the inheritance of our forefathers?
Nothing-naught. The grasping of the
man who is now at the head of the gov
ernment-his mad ambition that leads
him on and on to the possession OF sinis-
ter ends, should arouse the people Of
| this country to consider, to look well at
| the future of our once pure and happy
government. Never has been used such
means to overthrow people as has been
used by those now in power. They insti-
tuted a war unparalleled in the history OF
| the world-they have desolatcd the once
happy homes of thousands-they have
been the cause of over three hundred
thousand of the lives of our citizens to
be inundated upon the altar of their
mad ambition-they have desolated the
homes of thousands of our happy peo-
pie and changed the peon of joy into the
lamentation of the widow and the wall
of the orphan-and having heaped heca-
tombs of the dead, they ask the entire
destruction of our government-they in
s:st upon the immolat:ol OF Republi-
can government upon the altar OF CEN
tralized power. To accomplish it they
would amalgamate the debauched, the
degraded, the icentious negro with the
pure, unsullied Caucasian, that they
should be dragged down below the level
Of the brute. You have the proof OF
this in the infamous Civil Rights Bill
that now hangs in the House Of Repre-
sentatives awaiting for the next election
tosdetermine whether it shall pass or
not. Ohio has spoken; Indiana has thun-
dered her voice and said to you it shall
not be. Will Delaware by her action
!, sanction the unhallowed compact Of hell
and say that Delaware considers the ne
gro equal to her proudest Caucasian citi-
= zenp Shall this be your fiat? Will you
; sink in ignominy and shame the proud
2 institutions of your countly? Will you
= break down the noble and glorious su-
!, perstructure Of your forefathers? Will
a you stamp upon the altars of your coun-
!, try the hated Ichabod and acknowledge
t by your own acts that he glory has de-
: parted from the proud Reoublic-once
/ the admiration and glory of the world !
e Elect I.ofland and you do it. He is the
k friend of the Civil Rights Bill, let him
t hide it as he will. You proclaim to the
k world your appreciation of military pow
t er to cancel the action of a sovereign
State. You uphold an administration
q the most corrupt that ever cursed youl
j. country. You sanction usurpation, fraud
and shame if you elect him your Repre-.
e sentative to Congress. Arise in youl
e might and let Delaware stand side by
n side with Ohio, Indiana and Arkansas il
n their glorious victory over usurpers.
