This, as President Johnson maintains, a State may do, but that the national government would have no jight to require Iowa, or any other State, to modify its own Constitutin on this or any other subject, when not in conflict with the Constitution of the United States. If I should be in Iowa wben that question is submitted to the people, if it shall be so submitted by the Legislature I would vote to extend the right to all classes of persons possessing the requ-site inteligence and patriotism to be intrusted with a participation in the management of public affairs, State or national, without regard to their national-ality, as I do not believe the liberty of any class of people can be considered safe who are permantely deprived of the exercise of this right.
