their part was demanded BY thOse facts. Bar,
since The Republic thinks We should haze gore

in 7iew of the fa,ts set forth Ia that address,
the fairness of which is conceded by IGe RePab-
lie, to
|. Dismiss from power and Danish from their
confidence ali who aided 10 break the Missouri
Cou pact, and thus open the door for the frauds
and ouirsgoS By which the Free Settlers OF Kan.

couuselto and al N who decreed the removal OF
Gov. Reeder for trying to protect the actua'
settlers OF Kansas fOm the most hagrant OF
those outfaees
8. StiTen the backbOnes Of their Represents

that they i'll Indignantly repudiate aud brush
aside the usurpirg despo'ism imposed on the
settleIs OF Kansas by the Missouri mob who, By
preconcert and secret conspiracy, seized and
viiisted their polls last Spring, aud who have
there upon pretended TO legslize Slavery in
Kansas, 10 make the expression Of Free oPln-
iops felony, to i'll all the Offices of the Terri
toy for Si1 years ensuing, and to enact election
laws witch disfranchise the Free settlers and
confer the Right Of Suffrage on Missouri in

4. Iostruct the House Of Representatives to
admit promptly the Delegate from Kansas
whom TIE Free Settlers will elect in tae second
week Of OctCber instead OF tbs pfetender whom
the MiisOursus Will elect in the week preceding.
s. Instruct their Representatives to inert

undertake TO provide for the support of a Terri
torial Government IN Kansas a clause TO this
effect: PTor,ded, That 10 person in said Ter

the Slave Power as the repeal OF the Missouri
Restriction ard the removal OF Reeder 'front.' pay

must make up his mind to gain decided loss By
them.
Such are part Of the remedies which we
deem Appropriate for the wrongs inflicted on the
Free States in the recent acts Of the Federal Gov.
