Speech Relative to Damages to Loyal Men, and for Other Purposes
Description
"Speech of Hon. T. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, delivered in the House of Representatives, March 19, 1867, on the Bill (H.R. No. 20) Relative to Damages to Loyal Men, and for Other Purposes." He proposed the punishment of traitors by confiscating their property and to increase the pension of wounded soldiers. He cited reasons that the rebels deserved a severe punishment. The politics of peace, in Stevens' view, are identified, as well as allowing the ten Confederate states to re-enter the Union. He suggested impeaching President Johnson. Published by the Republican Congressional Executive Committee.
