Rebel Claims and the 14th Amendment Debate

The piece argues Democratic papers mislead about rebel claims against the U.S. Treasury. It notes only emancipated slaves and debts incurred to aid rebellion are barred, while claims for property taken or destroyed by Union forces are not. It warns voters that a Democratic victory could invite further payment of such claims, urging Republicans to oppose the Democratic ticket. Also cites an advertisement for Thomas Electric Oil as a remedy.
