down II you had consulted them II YOU
will, are you going to force it upon them un-
der the plea of leaving them perfectly free to
form and regulate their domestic institutions
in their own way? Is that the mode in which
L am called upon to carry out the principles
of self-government and popular sovereignty in
the territories-to form constitution on the
people against their will, in opposition to their
protest, with knowledge Of the fact, and then
to assign, as reason for my tyranny, that
they would be so obstinate and so perverse as
to vote down the constitution if l had given
them an opportunity to be consulted about
its
Sir, deny your right or mine to inquire of
these people what their objections to that
constitution are. They have a right to iudse
Tor themselves whether they like or dislike it.
1t is no answer to tell me that the constitution
is a good one and undbieetional 1t is not
satisfactory to me to have the President say in
his message that the constitution is;an admir-
able one, like all the constitutions Of the new
States that have lbeen recently formed
whether good or bad, whether obnoxious or
not, is none of my business and none Of
yours. 1t is their business and not ours. l
care not what they have la their constitution,
sc that 1t suits them and does not violate the
Constitution OF the United States, and the
fundamental principles of liberty upon which
our institutions rest am not going to argue
the question whether the banking system es-
taolished in that constitution is wise or un-
WISE 1t says there shall be no monopolies,
but there shall be one bank of discount in the
State, with two branches. All have to say
on that point is, if they want banking sys-
TEN, let them have it; if they do not want it,
let them prohibit it. If they want a bank
with two branches, be it SOL if they want
twenty it is none of my business and it mat
tiers not to me whether one of them shall be
on the North side and the other on the South
side of the Kaw River, or where they shall
be.
While have no right to expect to be con-
suited on that point, do hold that the peo-
pie of Kanzas have the right to be consulted
and to decide it, and you have no righttul au-
thority to deprive them of that privilege. 1t
is no justification, in my mind, to say that
the provisions for the eligibility for the offices
of Governor and Lieutenant Governor require
twenty years citizenship in the United States.
II men think that no person should vote or
hold Office until he has been here twenty
years, they have right to think so and if
majority of the people of Kanzas think that
