aud In our judfment 10 tho injury OF til cause Il
Presdom-H Y Times.
Never was truth more fifty spoken
than we find in the above from the \.
Y. DAILY Times Of the Goth inst. Since
the election, the Times has discovered
that the people understand all the
CANNON Of its party, IN their "shrleks
for freedom" and their howls over
"outragcs," expressly got upby outside
Aid Societies, for political effect in the
States. The Times refuses any longer
10 make Kansas the battlefield for the
political struggles Of the States, be
cause il thinks that the people OF Kan
sas have already suffered enough, for
the Fremont party, without any profit
to the party or TO Kansas. All the
shriekcrs are not SO honest With hot
headed persistency they shrek about
Kansas and the L. S. Supreme Court,
and seem to think that Kansas was
made only for Republican, todler, to
feed the credulous and the ,crdant with
that which will one day prove 10 be the
venom Of treason to the Country.
The y. Y. Times states the cause OF
the continued troubles in Kansas with
great force, when i, says that the PEG
pie who have gone to Kansas, are not
permitted to attend to their own affairs
They are regarded exclusively ~ the
Champions Of a ouse,and are 'onstant
" goaded on to acts OF violence. And
TO finish the whole story of Kansas
troubles in nut shell the Times says:
"7He fact at The bottom, 9, oil his Is,
that the people Of Kansas are mode 10
play The game q political pari'cs a
the .SMtes-to their own serious detrt-
ment," and in our judgement to the IN
jury of The crtsc Of freedom.
THIS is precisely the Language used
by nearly all the Democratic journals
Of the country before the presidential
election. Then the Times affected
not TO believe us. Then it was all done
for the "cause Of Freedom" and now
one Of the shrieker's journals informs
US, that nothing but "injury to the
cause Of freedom can follow such in
termeddling with the people of Kan
sas. Had not the Republican journals
combined in urging the Free State men
Of Kansas to keep aloof from all cleo
tons underline Territorial government,
the Legislature would now have been
in the entire control OF Free State men,
= Free State Delegate would have been
elected to Congress, and peace and
prosperity would have long since given
10 Kansas population more thrifty
happy, and contented, than that Of an,
other territory. There is now no gov
eminent or laws in Kansas except sucl
ss was first adopted, and vet iiv,
eighths Of the people have aud DO still
refuse to recognize either the govern
ment, the laws or the officers of tn
Territory, or TO make any effort in
lawful way, at the ballot box to &c
control Of and change the existing gov
eminent and laws. They are in ever
sense nullifers, and are encouraged b
the black shriekers in theStates to kee
alive just such state Of things in tn
Territory Ms will afford food for tb
"bleaters" and '.shriekers" Of the State
to make political capital Of We il
