af IiLajIs to Whether we consider this aisaomiy aa an-
af these 1 sing oat of participation in a rebellion or in
commission of felony, the mere fact or sucn
participation or commission of a felonious
off-nee does not of itself work disfranchise
ment. It must be ascertained by judgment

committed against the laws of a State or

would b fatal under these acts. I am not
aware of any law of the United States which
works disfranchisement as to the right of
suffrage by force of the act itself, nor does
such consequences follow from conviction
for treason, or conspiracy to commit trea
son, or for aar other act of participation in
rebellion. The provision in the Constitu

The next and more difficult inquiry is,
who is to be considered an officer off tka

officer bf any State, within tbe meaning off

arc here intended. State officers and Federal
officers, and executive or judicial officers.
No legislative officer is mentioned except
members of a State Legislature or members
of Congress. The descriptions used as to
other officers are, as to State officers, thai

aa to a Federal officer, the terms executive
or judicial are not expressed. He is de
seribed simply as an officer of tle United
States It baa been shown that the Fed
eral officers and State officers are classified
separately in the clauses of the act under
consideration. I deem it profitable, had
conducive to a clear order, to follow this
classification. I shall accordingly first
consider, what State officers are included
in the terms ''executive or judicial." This
nkraaa fa twice nsed in these clause
the superadded description "in any ta
in the first clause, and "of any State,"
the second clause. I think tbe conl
linsr term of description, if there it any re
pugnancy fat the terms, must be takek to
be tbe last, for that is nsed in tke first
clause and in others. Besides, it is tka
ua. I mn nt deaerintinn naed in the art of

of description, "executire sad judicial offi
