Sorry, don't mean to be cryptic (one of the lesser virtues of FR).
Conklin was speaking for "joint stock companies" and "citizens of northern states who took up residence in the South." He saw the 14th amendment as a corporate protection, not an extension of the Bill of Rights.
I understand this exceeds the speed limit here, as to what "incorporation" means in terms of Scotus arguments. The point is that the 14th weren't no virgin blessing.
