Few Copperheads and the Knights of the Golden Circle
The piece argues that not all Democrats were copperheads but that copperheads were Democrats. It details the rise of treasonous groups like the Knights of the Golden Circle and Knights of Liberty with 50 000 members in 1862 growing to 250 000 by 1864, their aims to form a northwest Confederacy, and notes a Democratic auditor in Indiana linked to such factions. It contrasts Republican loyalty with Democratic opposition to Lincoln’s war and warns voters against patriotic betrayal in November.
