Mr.. Morgan by no means rests

"there never has been a pretense
of organized government in the

course, organi ed bv the natives,

are, in truth, the fundamental
facts of the situation. 1t is cred

issues, but a pure ballot; for without
this there can be no fair, just or impair

of all our civil rights. duties and obliga-

to civil rights-our domestic and priv

we have no organic union of church and
