Senator MORTON A. the EsFEIIssop Hrf.Rs |
who last week stood at the; sl.le-scene |
in indianapolis viewing the asiiab olieatl |
work he was doing; and as the g Boys 10 |
Rlues sold themselves 70 the sempter and
became the enemies instead Of the friends
az their country, his mephistop hilean " Ha
hs, In. might DO imagined as sounding
iii the ears OF all but the victims OF his wiles
and his treachery What spectacle could 4
be more deplorable than that OF thousands
OF men assembling ogether TO have their Boz
SONS inaained with hatred OF their brethren
sof che same countrys What devil could
desire d VISION more Ia accordance with his
sympathics than that which was presented
to Che view OF the people OF Indianapolis
last week. when, the gallant veterans OF the
late war prostituted themselves to the vile
purposes Of that unprinciplcd demagogues
and moral ieper, OLIVER p. MORTON? The
soldiers who fought to preserve the unity of,
their country. were made to do duty In the
work Of trying TO divide the, people of the
North from the people Of the South. They.
were thus enlisted in the cause. OF dis,
union, and aiding to propagate sectional ha-1,
tired and unpatriotic feelings Of every kind.
What q shame. What q disgrace to the Re-
publican party.
The so-called tsBoys in Blue" who as
sembled in In dianapolis are said, however,
to have been largely reinforced by negroes,
who were imported into Indiana for the
purpose Of assisting MORTON and his allies
to cheat the people out Of their votes at the
October election. In Indiana there is no
registration law in force. The negroes
s walk up to the ballot-boX, and deposit their
ballots as IL they were residents. It is also
said that the Republicans hired ballot-box
suffers and repeaters in Philadelphia and
/, New York to attend the meeting OF the
ssBoys in Blue" and to remain in Indiana
until after the October election to aid NOR
TON in his deyi]ish schemes. Isn't this a
fine use to put old soldiers to s-to make
them the companions OF fraudulent negro
voters and white ballot-box suffers? Is
not that work which is becoming to OLIVER

LER? ss..sl3. !, g.f
The southern people were compelled to
remain in the Union. The war was fought
upon the pretence on the part OF the north.
ern people that the South had nothing TO
complain of-that Virginia had always had

sets or any other northern State II this
was nothing but pretence, then the North
is responsible for great crime in forcing
"a the South to submit to.the+ rule OF States
e having rights and privileges not accorded *
r. her. II it was net mere .pretence but
truth, then the attempt to rally
the northern soldiers against the southern
people 4, is IL crime OF still hugeI

excuse for it. Either, the southern people
ought to be recognized; and treated n

tended that this i, q free country, and these
free and equal States. According to tn
teachings OF MORTON and his crew, Virgini
s. has no right to claim equality in rights ANT
privileges with Indiana. Each OF the south
81 ern States is an Ireland. "s,hs@ - -
