1 Francis Lieber, Lincoln or McClellan, Appeal to the Germans in America 1 (1864)

handle is hein.slavery/linmclag0001 and id is 1 raw text is: LOYAL PUBLIOATION SOOIETY, NEW YORK, 863 BROADWAY. No. 67. LINCOLN OR McCLELLAN, APPEAL TO THE GERMANS IN AMERICA. By FRANCIS LIEBER TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY T. C.* COUNTRYMEN AND FELLOW-CITIZENS: The presidential election is rapidly approaching, and it is time for every citizen to reflect and decide conscientiously for whom he shall give his ballot. At an election of such im- portance, when everything dear to us, as citizens, is staked on the issue, it is unworthy-it is cowardly-to thro-w away * This appeal was written several weeks before the letter of Alexander H. Stephens to some friends in Georgia, and the report of Judge Advocate Holt, on the conspiracy in'this country, for the subversion of its government in favor of the rebels, were published. These two documents, the first speak- ing of the ultimate and absolute sovereignty of the states, the other show- ing many prominent men of the Chicago Convention loaded with crimes of the deepest dye-these documents would have furnished the writer of the appeal with many sad illustrations. -Translator.
