establish the Territory Of Nebraska but the able and eo
leave alternative Gladly would stop, If the
could be aken in order that the bill might be passed
taken But as has been demanded that shall explain the
grounds upon which chairman Of the Committee Ter
rtores predcaed the support of this BILL will do very
briefly.
The object of the bill is territorial government
extending the boundary of Missouri and Iowa
Utah and Oregon In other words 1t to form line OF
the Pacific ocean, so that we can have continuous set
dement's from the the other We expect
hope even maintain Pacific possessions unless they
be connected in feeling and interest and
with the Atlantic States That only be done by conn
lines of settlements and those settlements only be
formed where the laws will furnish protection those who
settle upon and cultivate the soil The proposed Territory
Of Nebraska embraces quite number of the many emgant
routes extending TO our Pacific possession 1t embraces
The route from Missouri TO Santa Fe New Mexico and also
10 Utah. Oregon, and California;
1t is desirable that that country should be open for settle
ment and that all emgrunts Travellers traders and settlers
should be under the protection Of law.
These the objects of the BILL and that
when you contemplate them, and that they essential
to the preservation of the harmony IL the very
existence of the Unon will be that they objects
Of sufficient importance command the serious attention Of
his body.

the people who may be there, and to legalizc the

place you refuse allow settlers there; and when
