TIE Indianapolis WoRLD calls at
tention to the fact that President
LINCOLN said that he would save the
Union without freeing the slaves, il he
could, or that he would save the Union
and free the slaves.
We do not think that this should be
used to his detriment.
The idea, which he strove to convey
was that the saving of the Union was
the paramount duty with him. He
had solemnly sworn to maintain and
support it at all hazards.
We do not favor the use of this logic
as produced by our contemporary, tic
build up the Dem ocrstic Party at the
expense of the Republicans.
We ali know that Mr.. LINooLN's

ats.
Let the two parties stand upon their
merits, and be judged by what they are
to-day.
The WORLD calls attention to the
fast that the Democratic Party of In
diana passed civil rights law. Now
this is argument and a citation of facts
which win win the support of right
thinking people everywhere.

more favorable to us when President
