Pro-slavery Men to the Rescuel--G1end
Rally on Tuesday Next
Though the recent act of Gov. Reeder
IN calling second election in this as well
as in other Districts of the Territory Is
.emphatieally repudiated. and looked up
on by our party as an arbitrary and intDI-
cradle assumption of power, yet after
calm and mature consultation, thought
fnl and deliberate consideration, the pro-
slavery party of this District have unaEa-
imously agreed fer many good reasons
that must suggest themselves to every
reasonable mind, on due reflection to raj
" to the polls on Tuesday next. The
proslayery party viii not 60 to the polls
on the ensuing election with any object of
accomplishing what has already been
done-of electing Representatives forthe
first Legislative Assembly of the Terrific
ry of KansaS-but with the view of de-
feating the vile and infamous Abolition
party known as the Kdnses Free White
STATE Party. Itisimpor.aut to theinter-
ests of our party and country that the Alb
olitionists should be defeated on this APP
preaching contest. We should never give
the negro thieving party cause to claima
victory over us through the ballot-box.
We should never permit the vile and in
fernal schemes ADMINISTRATIONS of Reed
er and his anti-slavery brethren to tram
pie over us. Rather than submit to the
gross acts of Gov. Reeder because they
are in violation of all Justice, we should
turn out with resolution to defeat and
thwart his evil and pernieious designs,
We should never give the Abolitionists
the qualification of heralding the result Of
the next election as a triumph of fanati-
cisIn, we should rather die than allow the
ruthless hands of the Abolitionists to tear
down from its lofty pillar the bright and
resplendant escutcheon of the South, and
trample it under their feet stained with
the dark spots of wild and maddening
fanaticism.
By voting at the approaching election
the pro-slayery party gain many points
which they would inevitably lose by re-
naming from the polls. They will de-
feat the Abolitionists by anoverwhelming
majority, which will have tendency tc
falsely the great cutlery that now rever-
berates through all the non-slayeholdine
States against the alleged importation o
voters at our last election. They vii
show conclusively that the pro-siavery
party are in the ascendency In the Terri
tory, Notwithstanding the many report:
to the contrary. promulgated by the en-
tire Abolition forces of the northwest
They viii secure Leavenworth, a voice il
the organization of the Territorial Legis
lature, which is matter of no little i'm
portance. They will obviate much con
fusion which would otherwise necessaril,
attend the contesting of the seats of on
members elect. They viii show to thu
South that her true and chivalrous son
have always rushed to the defense of he
institutions when assailed by the treason
able fanatics of the North.
We earnestly exhort the pro-slaver,
men torally at the polls on Tuesday next
and In the meantime to prepare them
selves for the contest. Let them maxi
ready by summoning their forces. LIE
them prepare to unanimously defeat thu
combined forces of the Abolitionists ant
Freesoilers. Let them determine upoI
victory. Let them resolve to vanquisl
the enemy. Let every pro-slavery MAI
be true to the interests of his party. LIE
no pro-slSery man absent himself from
the polls. Let one and all be there. LIE
there be a concentration of effort. LIE
there be aunanimity of feeling. Let eacl
and every one of our party work manful
ly and untiringly at this election. LIE
them bringto our supportevery pro-slay
cry man they can find. Let the result O
the coming election be as we wish, and
not as the Abolitionists hope for. Let i
be such as to cause the heart of every pro
slavery man to thrill with extatic Joy and
exultation. Let its result be heraldec
through the American Union, as third
great and glorious triumph of the pro-slav
cry party.-LeauenwOrth Herald, hay.
