CONSERVATISM AND SQUATTER SOyE-
REIGNTY,

There is no ground whatever for difference Of
opinion between Northern and Southern Democrats
as to the subject OF Squatter Sovereignty. Indeed
it is questionable if the North, having more
capital and much larger d;:sIcsaLe popua-
tion is not rc-s .utorosted than the South
ip poaiponing tho right Of tue psope of territory to
determine their social system, uutl they numer
GUS enough to constitute State. The pecclo Of the
South are equally adventurous Gnd have more of the
pioneering ss! and If handful Of the first settlers
we're allowed 20 determine this question, the South,
rather than the North, would be Interested in main
tanning this radical and lawless doctrine In long
struggle, the North would have the decided adyam
tage; tho South might often succeed by sudden
coup de main 1t is no SECTIONAL question, hut emf
nenty question of conservatism vs.. radicalism.-
The tendency uf the aye, Iut especially OF the isns
that Gppose the Democracy, is to the relaxation Of
law, order and authority. Squater Sovereignty pro-
noses to encourage and legalize domestic illibuster
ing, invites the few to seize upon the public domain,
and to exclude the many or to admit tEern only on
such terms as those few i.,sy prescribe The Demo-
cracy Of this Union s the Only great conservative
party C: lie world ior theirs Is the conservatism of
tho people who would take care Of themselves, not
that of privileged orders and classes, who seek TO
taip exclusive rights and privileges, and to preserve
the power of expressing and taxpg tho masses. we
repsst the subject Of Squaster Sovereignty is not
ousstlon between North and South, but between
oouserv atsm and radicalism, between law aud anar
