President Grant's Proclamation. Washington, May 4. The Act of Congress, entitled M A Net to enforce the provisions of th ' iiirfeenth amendment to the Consult tion of the United ^>ir?ie?. end for olh? mrposcs," approved April 20, A. I 1871, being h law of extraordinary put 'ic importance, I consider it my duty t issue this ntv proclamation, calling tli attention of tlic people of tbe Unite Mate* tltereto ; et j ?ining upon all goo ilizens, especially upon all public ofl erf, to be zealous in the enforccmer thereof, and warning all persons to at tain from committing any of the act thereby prohibited. This law of Cor '.jress applies to all parts rf the Unite Slate*, and will be enforced everywhere to the extent of the power vested in ill Executive ; but inasmuch as the necei ?ity therefor is well known to hate bee caused chiefly by pem'stent violations < the rights of citizens of the Unite States by combim.lions of lawless an disaffected persons in certain Iochlitie lately the theatre of insurrection an military conflict, I do particularly e: liorl the people of them parts of tl Itntrv to suppress all Slieh rnmliim II <ns by 'heir own voluntary i fforl hroiipli I lie agency of local lute, an o maintain ilie lights of all citizens r 'he United Slates, and lo secure to a auch citizens the equal protection of lit Jaws. Fully sensible of the responsibilit imposed upon the Executive by the Ai of Congress to which public nttentic is now called, and reluctant to call ini exercise any of the extraordinary pov ers thereby conferred upon me, exec; in cases of imperative necessity, I d nevethclcss, deem it my duty to ma] known that I will not hesitate to e haust the power thus vested in the E eculive, whenever and wherever it shr become nece<sary to do so. for the pti pose of seeming to all citizens of tl United Sittes the peaceful enjoyment the tights guaranteed to them by tl v onslitulion and laws. It ii my ear est wish that penro and cheerful ob dience to Jaw may prevail til rough o the land, and that all traces of our la unhappy civil strife may he speedily r moved. These ends can he easily reac ed by acquie^ence in the results <f tl oorrfllot ?>.?? ir#!l Ion ' ' - ^ nwn ilil'ltll III UUI i'dd, and ihe due and proper enforc meni of equal, just and impartial lat in every part of our country. The failure of the local communiti to furnish such means for the obtuii ment of results so earnestly de?ired, ir poses upon the National Governme the duly of putting forth all its energi for the protection of its citizens, of evei race and color, and for the restoration peace and order throughout the enti country. In testimony whereof, I have set jr hand and caused the seal of the Unit< Sates to be affixed.
