He denied thai the State gov erntuents in the South must be reorganized I before there could be a perfect union of States but if the State governments were turned back to the men who bad been in re bellion. was it not reasonable to suppose they would rebel again. He would ask the Senate if Congrc-s.s could not pass an act depriving late reb 'ls of their right of citizenship not withstanding the President's amnesty. If Congress had the power to do that, it ought to be done. The men who went into rebell ion ought to be disfranchised arid prevented from taking part in the work of reorganiza tion.
