Mr. Grimes is an adrot political ganester; and as
conscious the salient points in his argument N this
respset he attempts himself from his dilemma by
denouncpg Nessrs Dodge and Jones for not allowing TO
the people Of Nebraska and Kansas the right 10 elect all
ser officers instead Of allowing appointments TO be made
BY the Executive Now, happen to know that both
these gentlemen would been glad to vote for such
provision If by their votes il could be carried That they
did not 20 for 1t when offered by the deadly enemies Of the
bill-,he abolition leaders in the Senate Of the United
Stateswho with the true recklessness Of their trade
sought embaass the friends Of popular sovereignty
quite true No senator favorable the Nebraska bill was
yerant enough TO be caugh, BY the tricks Of men Whose
syowed object was destroy that by any means
no matter how dishonest
But Mr. Grimes and his party among other objections TO
the Nebraska ball. declare ychementy that there is no me-
cess organizing these Territories because there
are AS yet no people in Kansas and Nebraska This
prctext is in itself exposed by the fact that at the
last session Of Congress than year sgo-every
whg the House voted organize Nebraska into Ter
ritory Mr. Grimes would leave the people Of the Ter
rores Of Nebraska and Kansas the election Of all their Of
6oers-governors Judges &cwhen he and his party al
ege that there people here Senators Dodge and
Jones voted like practical men; took view recognising
the principle Of popular sovereignty far as Il could be
applied and in doing this they faithfully followed the
ample set BY the great Of all parties during the stormy
scenes Of 1885, in the organization Of the Territories Of
Utah aud New Mexico.
Mr. Grimes Ia his address the citizens Of Iowa is
greatly exercised because in the Nebraska BILL it passed
the Senate foreigners placed upon the footing
which foreigners yet naturalized occupied in the Terri
tories Of Wisconsin Arkansas Michigan, and Iowathat
is that they are until formally clothed with the
rights Of citizenship The Iowa senators censured be
cause they voted for this bill with this provision included
but did Mr. Grimes know that their votes thrown
against this Questionable provson and that they sup
ported the bill after this provision had been carried with
the fact before them that its rejection in the House
conceded? We leave him this question at his
leisure.
