thousand of her citizens, old and young have
their eyes already turned towards Kansas Some
OF them to GO to Kansas will require aid Others
of them will need but little more than informa.
ton, as to the country, and the best methods OF
getting there. While still others have both
means and information and, only await the open
ing spring and summer to go upon their Jour
ney We urge such of our fellow citizens as
can, to go to Kansas and in doing so, feel that
we can, from full information, concientiously re.
commend Kansas as most desirable home for
the land.ess emigrant. In salubrity of atmos-
phere IN mildness of climate, in richness of soil
in abundance of useful streams, it holds out in
ducements to the farmer, the mechanic, and to
all classes who are needed in building up a rich
and growing State, not surpassed by any other
new State or Territory.
The Committee repudiate the idea Of encour-
aging emigration to Kansas otherwise than as
a home. They wish to Eli it with liberty loving
citizens in sufficient numbers to make it a free
State, in a peaceful manner through the ballot
box, and thus save the necessity of continued
conflict
The Committee recommend the following
course of action:
Let an Association be formed in every Coun-
ty in the State, with auxiliary associations in
each town; the local associations TO expcnd the
contributions raised among themselves to the
aid of cmigrants from their own midst They
also recommend that as far as possible, compa-
MES be formed OF transferable numbers, furnish
ed with OK or horse teams and covered wagons,
and take the overland route through Iowa.
This leads over and through a fine country the
whole distance. 1t will take about thirty days
to perform the journey So far as the Commit
tee can judge it is the safest, cheapest and most
Independent method of making the journey.
They desire to be informed through their Secre-
tary, Charles t. Hotchkiss, of all the companies
that are formed in the State, the time when they
intend 10 start, their numbers, and the amount
of donations of land, money or other means.
They have opened an Office in Milwaukee, en-
ployed Secretary, and will take the Kansas
papers, keep up an extensive correspondence,
and obtain all the information in their power,
which will be at the service of all auxilliaries,
companies or individuals, who will apply at the
office or address the Secretary. If reports are
promptly made to our Secretary, all companies
or individuals can learn, through him, of the
number and time of starting of all other COM
panies, and thus be enabled to cooperate with
each other. An agent is already on his way to
Kansas, who viii return by about the first of
May, and bring valuable information for those
about to emigrate.
