CONSISTENCY. ,
But a few days ago Vallandigbam, tbat
devoted patriot of Copperbeadism and seces
sion, aaid tbat unless President Johnson did
not commence appointing Democrats to office,
in three weeks he would not bave a single
adherent fn that party. Hear bim in the Ohio
Democratic State Convention, which assem
bled at Columbus, May 23d. ' In a speech be
fore that body be said :
"Tbe support given by tbe Democracy to
Andrew Johnson was tbe most bonest ever
given by any party to a President. It was
unselfish support' with no demand for office.
The Democracy owed nothing to the Repub
lican party and did not intend the Republican
party should owe it anything. The battle
would be fought out on this line. He was a
Copperhead and gloried in it, and would tell
the Republicans tbat in five years tbey would
be making affidavits to prove that they were
the real Copperheads and we tbe pretenders ;
but Copperheads did not intend to be swal
lowed up by tbe President, nor tbe President
by the Copperheads. Tbe President was not
going over to the Copperheads, for they would
neither ask nor take office athis bands though
they intended to hold all the offices after
Maroh, 1863."
.. phjuo l Copperheads would not take of
fice at the bands of President Johnson 1 He
knew they endorsed his actions not because
they loved bim or approved of bis adminis
tration but because tbey did want office,
and sought office by endeavoring to deceive
him through false and shameless assurances
of support. He knows the fundamental rule
now governing and controlling the Copper
heads and leaders of the self-styled so-called
Democratio party is divisions ; tbey divided
the Democratic party at Charleston ; divided
the Union and gave aid and comfort to rebels
and traitors, and have, true to their Instincts,
endeavored to divide tbe Union party; but
in tbat they bave signally failed, and only
in tbe State of Oregon at this time do they
longer labor for this object, After the eleo
tioo is ovr yon will find the Democratic
party here, a in Ohio and throughout the
Union, boldly, defiantly assuming their old
principles,, contended for during the war,
and denouncing President Johnson as an
usurper and tyrant.
Vallandigbam truly says tbe President is
not one of them ; be will neither go to them
nor tbey to him ; tbey will not ask nor take
office atbis baods that point is settled. Th(
(Ar..UM&'hav eipired and yet no appoint
ments J . and no longer will Democrats support
or endorse him or bis policy. President
- m
Johnson, the patriot and statesman, knows
who are the friends of this Government, and
wilt carefully, guard and guide, with tbe
counsel and co-operation of true loyal men,
tbe old Ship of State into tbe harbor of safety,
peaca and prosperity.
Tbe friends ofi President Johnson should
reflect and consider with which party they
act and .vote at the coming election. If you
Vote for the candidates on tbe Democratio
ticket, you are supporting the enemies of the
President, and free government, yon are
voting to sustain Vallandigham and bis party
w.bo boast oft their Copperhoadism. If you
vote with the Union party, you sustain the
President and hia . friends. Each of the
candidates on tbe Union Slate and county
ticket are'-th friends of President John'
sonr and the advocates, of freedom an
liberty, who are opposed, to submitting this
Government- Into the bands of traitors, an
equally opposed to-universal suffrage.. On
Monday next let the friends of Johnson an
liberty march to tbe polls, and there, by you
votes, tell tbe Vallandigbam traitors tbat Or
egon will sustain the President aud tbia glo
rious Government agaiastitbem and hia treas
enable cohort.
