Description:Excerpt from Centennial History of Missouri (the Center State) One Hundred Years in the Union, 1820-1921, Vol. 4The consensus of public opinion places as one of the important acts in the career of Governor Campbell the fact that he was instrumental in securing a verdict from the United States supreme court which led to the restoration of franchise to several thousand citizens of the state. The war convention of 1865 in the Drake constitution disfranchised all southern sympathizers and passed a-law requiring certain electors to take and subscribe to a test oath which forced everyone who desired to vote to make oath that they never had active, sympathetic or other connection with the movement to dissolve the Union. Several suits were instituted in order to test the validity of this act, but in each instance the law was sustained. In the case of Father Cummings, however, a case conducted by Governor Campbell as another test case, he presented phases of the question hitherto omitted, and when the case reached the United States supreme court, the law was declared unconstitutional and void, and thus several thousand were restored to their full rights of citizenship.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
