e DAVID WILMoT is out against
the Nebraska Bill Of Senator Douglass.
Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1850-1854, 1854-03-03

90 The Kenosha Democrat, mad
vertently or otherwise. utterS some very
good free soil doctrine, in its last and one
or two previous numbers. If such doc
trincs were the rule and practice of its
party, it would end the mission of the
Free Soil party, and close all disturbance
on the slavery question forever.
The doctrine we allude to is, that sla-
very can exist nowhere, without positive
law establishing it. This is just what the
Free Soil Party have contended and are
contending to have recognized as the doc
trine to govern the authorities of the land
in deciding the question; and they have
sought the enactment of the Wilmot Pro-
viso for no other reason than because the
Democratic party and the authorities that
they inaugurate, have always tolerated a
directly opposite doctrine.
tits very plain that if this doctrine now
endorsed by the Democrat had been the
recognized policy ofthe government from
the beginning, the area Of slave territory
would never have been added to one inch,
vet we find it doubled from what it was
in the original states, although Congress
nor any of the territories or new states.
ever passed an Act creating or establish
ing it any where. This could only have
happened through the systematic viola
ton and disregard Of this principle, which
indeed, has been uniformly and universal
ly done. Where slavery was not cspe-
cially prohibited, shareholders have gone
with their slaves; they have held on to
them by the hand Of force alone, have
been tolerated by the general government
and upheld by the courts, until state con-
stitutions were formed, when the institu-
ton has been tolerated and recognised,
and regulated. and in that manner, and
that alone established. Hence has arisen
the necessity for the prohibition in the
Missouri Compromise. and for the Wilmot
Proviso; necessity which would exist
no longer if CasS and the rest Of the de-
mocracy would only put in practice this
doctrine stated as theirs by the Democrat
which they heretofore have not done.

RAILWAY JYvEsrMEYTs.-Thc American
Railway Times, Of the 2lst, says "the rage
for railway construction has not entirely
abated in this country, in spite of the hard
money and the low figures in our railway
Stock Lists. There are still persons who
believe that railways will pay, no matter
where they are built. The calculations Of
,hc ~roj cc'or> are mostly confined to the
through traffic, and upon that traffic they
ground their faith in the success OF the road.
They should remember that our most success
iul roads are those which have Il very large
local traffic, and that local traffic is the great
est safeguard against failure. Without sui
cannot pay. The building Of II road tends
to concentrate population on lis line; but it
is not done in Il day. nor in Il year, or five
Years, and while the shareholders are waiting
for dividends from the expected local traffic,
they may very likely ,tarve. We have great
faith in the simuIativc and productive effects
OF Runway CONSTRUCTION, but sun nave rs iiril
a belief that population and business are he
ccssarv for the success Of the railway in the
early stages of its existence. Some Of our
contemporaries are extremely Sanguinc Us TO
The effect, Of Railway construction and one
Of them, we lately noticed, in commenting
upon the present monetary troubles Of the
country, stated in effect, that our pccuuiarv
salvation depended upon Il continuance of
railway construction, and that when We
stopped building, the whole financial system
Of the country would explode. We take the
ground that population and business are ne
crssary for the success of railways, and that
it is poSsibie too many railways may be built
for our present population.'
