Appeal of Kansas to the Voters Of the
Free States

Believing that there is continual en-
deavor on the part 'of Administration
Journals to suppress the facts. and mis-
represent the condition of Kansas, and
to throw cruel discred t upon the COM
plants ofan oppressed and outraged peo-
pie the following brief summary OF the
true state of the Kansas question is
earnestly commended to candid men OF
all parties, and we entreat and confident
" hope that you will do us justice.
|. The Free State men Of Kansas
constitute very large majority of the
population and we are ready and have
always been ready to prove this by any
test which it is possible to require with
any show of fairness.
2. We were not only willing bat
earnestly desirous to organize a tcrrlto-
rial government in accordance with the
provisions of the Kansas act, but were
forcbly prevented from doing SO.
8. Our polls were violently seized by
an overwhelming force of armed invaders,
residents of an adjoining State, and men
offensive to the great majority OF the le-
cal voters ofKansas, and hostile to their
interests, were chosen to constitute the
Kansas Legislature.
4. This pretended legislature. hav-
ing never bee n invested with any power
by those whom they attempted to gov
ern, have always been and are still resar'
del by the great majority of the people
of Kansas as usurpers to whom they owe
no obedience.
5. Having been prevented by vio-
lcnce from carrying out the provisions Of
the organic act,-the people OF Kansas
had then no alternative but to submit to
enslavement, and be ruled by their enc
mics as a conquered people, or to assert
thiey rights and organize a government
for themselves.
6. They chose the latter, and follow
ing the example of California, framed a
State government, and are now asking
for admission into the Union.
Z. This was not tho movement of 3
mere party. The call was addressed te
the actual residents of the territory, and
