THE REAL CHICAGO PLATFORM AS EXPOUNDED BY THE DEMOCRATIC ORATORS AT CHICAGO caption title.

1864réf. 65929New York: National Union Executive Committee 1864. Scarce Anti-Copperhead Broadside A scarce anti-Copperhead broadside printed during the election of 1864 purporting to reveal "the real Chicago Platform" and providing excerpts from speeches given at the Democratic National Convention. The convention met in Chicago on August 29 1864 where the Copperheads quickly established dominance over the outnumbered War Democrats and established peace with the South at any cost as the core of their platform. McClellan accepted the nomination alongside staunch Copperhead George Pendleton despite his open opposition to the peace platform; this seeming hypocrisy was mercilessly lampooned by the opposition contributing to the abject failure of the joint War and Peace ticket. The present broadside presents statements made at the convention by "a number of distinguished Democratic orators" which they deem "sufficient to show the temper and purpose of all." Some choice excerpts include: "I love our Southern friends; they are a noble a brave and a chivalrous people cheers" Representative James S. Rollins of Missouri; "Show me a War Democrat to-day and I will show you a shoddy Abolitionist in disguise.He is a Judas and should be cast out as an enemy to humanity and to God.Soon the net is to be drawn that will gather in its half million more to feed the insatiable thirst for blood of the Negro God" J.A. McMaster arrested for libel at the start of the war; "If Democrats catch Lincoln's bloody satrap spies among them they must cut their damned throats that's all. Applause" Captain William J. Kountz known troublemaker and personal antagonist of General Grant dishonorably discharged in 1863; and "We are one and all for peace and with this magic word upon our banner we shall sweep over the course and roll into oblivion the black negro-loving negro-hugging worshippers of old Abe Lincoln" Isaiah Rynders Tammany Hall tough and former Know-Nothing. The broadside was clearly printed with intention of wide dispersal among potential Lincoln supporters with a noted price of "$1 per 100." The American Antiquarian Society reasonably suggests that this broadside was printed by the National Union Executive Committee of New York based on typographically similar items in their collection. A representative document from one of the nation's most fraught elections. Old folds. Light tanning and staining. Small holes at two cross-folds short closed tear to upper margin and left edge. About very good. SABIN 68234. unknown
