Minnesota Bogus Convention.

The last intelligence from Minnesota
was that the Constitutional Convention
remained dividod--the Republican men,

working away in a Legitimate manner
from day TO day, aud che seeding. fac

Minnesota Tunes Of che e5th ult., gives
the condition Of affairs at the scene Of ac-

The "Dead RABBITS" met ia the Coun.

make note of il.
Thus stand the two bodies. The Con-

The Kansas AppOtiOnment Fraud.

Inc AdnSdb appointment rEduu'
1t is the duty of the governor TO make
an appointment for the territorial election.
If fair appointment was made, the free
state men would carry the election by a
majority of nine-tenths. This result
would not suit the purpose Of the nation
al Democracy; fraud, therefore, was re-
solved on. Gov. Walker, in his speech
at Topeka. used the following language:
"Iu October next, not under the act
Of the Territorial Legislature, but under
the law of Congress, you, the whole peo-
pie Of Kansas, have the right 70 elect a
delegate to Congress aud to elect Ter
ritorial Legislature"
He promised that the right should be
secured by ''fair and full election"
AS he is President Buchanan's candi-
date for the next Democratic nomination,
it would not do, Of course, for Walker to
execute the contemplated fraud directly.
BY the bogus laws the Governor is re-
quired to make an appointment before a
given day 10 June; but it provides that il
he fails TO fulfill this duty it shall fall TO
the task of the Speaker of the House of
Delegates. aud the President of the Ter
ritorial Council.
Governor Walker was familiar with
the provisions of this act, for he referred
to it in one Of his earliest speeches in
Kansas, He now lodges the execution
of the fraud and permits the Speaker aud
President 10 do il, Remember that the
act only says that after a named day in
June, il may not shall be done by these
officials. The Governor never looses the
power to make this appointment, and
should be sternly held responsible for its
character.
The appointment has been made
