An Erroneous Policy.

1t is proposed by some of the Free
State leaders to vote in October, and thus
secure control of the Lecompton Legisla-
ture for the purpose of expunging all the
bogus laws, and then adjourn sine die, thus
leaving the Territorial Government with
out any Legislative body.
This done, the next thing on the pro-
gramme is, to put the Topeka Legisla-
ture at work passing laws for the State of
Kansas, and then ask admission into the
Union on the pretext that we have no
Territorial laws, and that we are in state
of anarchy, unless the Topeka Constitu-
ton is recognized and the laws passed
under it are made valid 10y the action of
Congress.
Unless there is some better reason for
doing this than any that we have yet
heard, we shall never become party TO
it. We brand it as a political trick, cal
culated to iniure, rather than advance, the
interests of Kansas. We see in it one of
the means proposed ''to force the Topeka
Constitution down the throats of Congress"
to use the significant language of several
engaged in it.
That such course would involve us in
new and complicated difficulties, there
can be no doubt; and that there is better
way to accomplish our object, is also
equally evident. By electing members to
the bogus Legislature in October, and then
repeating every single obnoxious law and
then passing good wholesome enaetments
in their stead, we place ourselves in safe
position. By doing this, we can avoid
the expenses of State Government, and
vet enjoy all the advantages to be derived
from Just and equitable laws; we can oc-
cupy stand point from which we can
dictate to Congress the terms on which
we will go into the Union,-whether un-
der the Topeka Constitution or some
other.
This, it seems to us, is the end for
which we should secure control of that
body. We believe that the conservative
element of the Free State party viii agree
with us precisely on this point-we KNOW
that the fanatics will not. We submit
the question to every intelligent reader oi
this-Are we not right?-Ransas Leader
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-08-08

Or There is spirit manifested on the
part of some of the leaders of the Free
State party in Kansas TO oppose every
measure Of the Democracy and the acts of
every official belonging to that oEganiza-
ton, without any reference to merits. We
pronounce this, as every honest man must
pronounce it, wrong-entirely wrong.
When partisan warfare degenerates into
this, it ought to sink into oblivion every
politician and clique indulging in it.
When our opponents are right, it is much
more manly and honorable to acknowledge
and give them credit for it, than it is to
condemn them simply because they are
our opponents, nor nothing more nor less.
Why not accept justice at the hands of
Gov. Walker, If he viii extend it to us,
as soon as at the hands Of any other than
a Democrat? We never yet have been
bigoted and narrow-minded enough to OPP
pose anything good on the ground that it
originated with political enemy, and no
other, and we hope we never shall We
are well convinced, however, that there
are such men In the Free State party, and
theso1ner we get hid of them the better
Kansas Leader.

IAwRFScr August 8. 1857.

LAWRENCE, august ., 1oof'
FRIEND BRowN:-For some time past
| have been at a loss to know the reasons
why some of the Free State party, are in
the habit of condemning, while many OF
the same party approve the course of the
Herald of Freedom" and until recently,
never knew the cause.
Having occasion to ride into the coun-
try short distance, on business, ! met
many of the settlers, and in course OF con-
versation, the Herald of Freedom was
mentioned, and its present position. 1
made the remark, "How do you Ike the
position of BRowN and the Herald Of Free
dom?'' The universal answer was, ave
all approve of his position. as being the
only true ground upon which the Free
State party can stand, with hopes Of sue
cess.
I remarked, "You astonish me, we in
Lawrence do not like the Herald Of late,
we think him too conservative In his
views, and / cannot see how YOU can sus-
tain him here?'' A very intelligent Old
gentlemen, and one that has done good
service in the Free State cause the past
year, remarked, "We here are Free State
men, you men in Lawrence are Republi-
cans, and are laboring for the advance
ment of that party in the old States.
But our aim is the success of the Free
State cause and the advancement and
prosperity of Kansas, and this is the sum
and substance of your opposition to
BRowN.n I must acknowledge felt the
force of the remark, and am convinced
that the most of the opposition l hear and
see against the Herald is from the ultra
Republicans in Kansas and in the States,
while your friends and supporters bothin
Kansas and in the States are the REAL
FREE STATE MEN who have the welfare
and prosperity of Kansas at heart.
So, friend Brown, go on, God speed
you in the good cause!

Alta meeting of the citizens of Law
rence. held at the Office of Ladd & Prem
tiss, July 20, 1867, called by the Chair
man of the Committee, chosen at q forna-
er meeting, fer raising subscriptions for
the permanent and final survey OF Hail
road line between Delaware and Lawrence,
to intersect the Hannibal and st. joseph
Railroad
Col. j. Blood was chosen Chairman, and
e. d. Ladd Secretary. .
The Committee reported the raising OF
the estimated amount for making said
survey.
On motion, said Committee, consisting
of s. B. Prentiss, A. d. Searl snd 4. ID.
Ladd, were authorized and instructed IN
conjunction with similar committee IN
Delaware, to close contract for making
said survey.
Also on motion, said Committee were
chosen Commissioners to superintend SAID
survey. j. BLOOD, Chairman.
L. d. LADD, Sec'y.
In pursuance OF the autn0rity aooNe
conferred on the Committee, they have
concluded contract, which had been pre-
viousiy arranged by the Committee in
Delaware, with Henry A. Smith. Esq, of
Delaware, an Engineer of large experience
and with flattering credentials, to make
an immediate and thorough survey of said
line. He commenced the work to-day,
and expects to complete the survey in
the field in one month. As soon as COM
pleted report of the survey with correct
and reliable maps showing the route with
its connections viii be published.
Having come over the route, Mr. Smith
reports it as exceedingly favorable. An
intersection with the Hannibal and st.
Joseph Railroad can be effected by this
line at a saving of eight miles in distance,
and by far the best and most economical
route over any other, and at the best
crossing on the Missouri river. This road
is to be built, affording, as it does, an al
most air line communication between Chi
cago and the great central inhabited por-
tions of Kansas. The immense railroad
and commercial interests of the great North
and East will seek, of necessity, the most
direct, economical and practicable line of
communication with the prospective re-
sources and wants Of eastern and central
Kansas. u.

EP 1t is worthy of notice, that almost
all the Kansas correspondents of Eastern
papers are FOREIGNERS, and are the special
pets of Gov. Robinson. While we would
not condemn them on account of their
birthplace alone, we have Alright TO ques-
ton their patriotism to our Government,
when we hear them declare that we must
go into the Union under the Topeka Con-
stitution, or stay out of it under the same.
We love the cline of our nativity too
well to takeany such position as this. The
star-spangled banner that foated over
every battlefield from Lexington to
the Gate of Belen at the entrance of
the City of the Montezumas, has been our
protection heretofore, and it must be in
Kansas We honor that flag tco much TO
desert it now for the Topeka Constitution.
We think too much of oTr own independ-
ence to ignore it by following the dictates
of a wild and fanatical 0ligarchy-an Oh
igarclIy engaged in attempting to suppress
freedom of speech, by charging that
Robert j. Walkers gold has accomplished
what nought else could do, and thus point
the finger of scorn at all those who do
not keep step to the State organization.
Kansas, as free and sovereign State in
the Union, without the Topeka Constitn-
ton, in preference to Kansas as an inde-
penden. Repablic with It.
That is our position, square and fair;
and ON that platform, we are willing to go
before the citizens of this Territory, and
appeal to them for It's endorsement. We
have faith in their love for the Union and
the Constitution; we have faith II Their
patriotism to the American Republic; We
have faith that the time is at hand a
which they will tTample beneath theil
feet the dictates Of either foreign or nativi
leaders who adYise them 10 pursue fac
tious and partisan course for the sake OF
NAME, and viii take their own way intf
