. .
" The monstrous doctrine of this bill and its authors has no foundation in the Constitution. It subjects all the states to the will of Congress ; it places their insti- tutions at the feet of Congress. It creates in Con- gress an absolute unqualified despotism. The rights of the people of the state are nothing, their will is nothing. My own state of Ohio is liable at any mo- ment to be called in question for her constitution. She does not permit negroes to vote. If this doctrine be true. Co...ngress may decide that this exclusion is anti- republican and by force of arms abrogate that consti- tution and set up another permitting negroes to vote.
From that decision of the Congress there is no appeal to the people of Ohio, but only to the people of Massa- chusetts, New York, and Wisconsin, at the election of Representatives; and if a majority can not be elected to reverse the decision, the people of Ohio must submit. Woe be to the day when that doctrine shall be established, for from its centralized despotism we will appeal to the sword.
