I will tell my worthy friend that officers of the sixty-fifth regiment of Indiana located at that time in other precincts of that county [in Kentucky] went and took their pens and struck from the poll-book every Democratic candidate. They would allow no man to cast his vote unless he voted for the other ticket.

That's the REPUBLICAN government the Union was fighting for. We condemn countries doing the same.

Convict the officers if it was illegal.
