The Leadership Of Congress Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The President and Congress: A Hint to the South, a Warning to the North IN the election which has just been held for members of Congress, many persons were deprived of an opportunity of fairly and fully expressing through the ballot-box their views of the questions at issue between the President and Congress. The only choice left them was to decide between a radical Republican, who had supported the Government in putting down the rebellion, and a Democrat, who was considered as having done all in his power to prevent the Government from doing so. There was no alternative but to vote for the Radi cal, although opposed to his extreme radical views. The persons referred to are not in accord with either of the two great political parties in the land and are ready to cast their votes with any party that will hold up right principles and offer as candidates men of principle. The time may come when their votes will be desirable and their power felt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
