The Frea STATE Yiotorr.


We believe that it is now settled, that
the Free State party in Kansas have
achieved a triumphant victory, securing a
majority in both branches Of the Legisla-
ture, and in elecfing their Delegate TO Con-
gress. This, after three years OF the
foulest oppression, mtist be truly gratify-
.ing-and the more so, from the fact that
It is three-fold yictory--a victory over
the Pro- Slavery party, over the Federal
Office holders, backed by all the powers
ofthe Administration, and over the would
be leaders of the Free State party, who
have only sought to iise Kansas as capital
for Eastern politicians. Ii the advice and
wishes of these men had been carried out,
Kansas would have continued under the
same rule which has been forced upon
her for the three years past. They have
heretofore managed to keep the people
from voting; they rallied against the Grass
hopper Falls Conventions; they attended
the Convention, and in tae face of the al
most unanimous determination there ex-
pressed, to participate in the election,
they made feeble opposition to it; and
aiiSf that Convention Ldu gwen It's aeSiS-
ion. they sent their correspondence TO the
agitation presses Of the East, nlisrepTesent-
ing the people Of Kansas. declaring that a
majority ofthern would not take part in
tie election, and stignatizing those as
traitors who were determined to do so.-
There is not the least doubt that, through
their influence, many Free State men re-
fused to vote. Yet, notwithstanding all
this, the party isviotorious, and now what
do we see These very men are the
loudest in Growing over the result and
we shall soon see them claiming ali
the credit of Che yictory! Verify, their
irnpudence is unparalleled ! If the Free
State party have any regard for its harHlo-
NJ and future prosperity, they should at
tend to one important thing, among the
first of their acts. and tha. IS to "elean
out'' these wranglers, and give them to
understand that their services can be dis
pensed with. IF they do not, they may
look out for continual internal conten-
| ton, which will finally result in Their
| complete eyershrow.-E E1sits Cloud C7aef

Kansas is free.

1t really does us good TO see how our
eastern journals, many which have been
abusing Us most villainously for adyo-
eating the voting policy, now receive the
election news from Kansas. Here is
specimen from the De Kalb County Sen
tinei, Rsoabiican paper of illinois -
The grelt battle has been fought on the
plains OF Ksnsas-not with the battle-ax,
not with the sword, not with the cannon,
but at the balIot-box, and, thank God,
Kansas IS Frsei
Acting upon the admonition, never to
crow until ne are out of the woods, we
have waited to get full and reliable infor-
nation with regard to the result of the
late election in that lately distracted Ter
ritory, and we are now sufficiently advised
TO state that, thank eGed, KANSAS IS
FREE!i
We are aware that strong exertions
were made, both in and cut of Kansas,
to prevent the Free State voters fherc
from voting at the late election. but good
couRsels hare preUailef; the independent
yeornanry of that Territory have turned
ont in their strength hare exercised the
rights of FeeemeD, aud the results. what
every Christian has prayed for, what eve.
~ patriot and pllilanfhropist bas hoped
for. that, thank God, KANSAS IS
FREEiit
To that class OF politicians who were
really at heaTt in fayor Of seeing Kansas
free from the curse of Slavery, but yet
from principle desired to have the ques-
ton of Slavery or Freedom settled by the
people-the actual settlers and the Jotia
fiIe inhabitants thereof, the result Of the
late election there, must be highly gfati-
fying. Tor not only is it 10 be free but il has
been made so IN the manner that they
sincerely believe it should be.
We care but little by whom Kaasas has
been made free. II IS sufficient fOT ns 70
know that il Is free, without iiaqaiFins
whether il has been made so By Demo-
Gratis, Wings, Republicans. Know Moth
iags-party politics are of little eonse-
9uence when put IN competition with hH-
man rights. We are of the opinion that
party poEities has had Gut iftke 70 do soith
the qusstiaa. Free State electors have
voted for Free State men. We know OF
full bIo9ded Democrats IN kaiisas WHO
would never vote for pTo-sIayerY man.
even were he the regular democratic nem-
inee. and we have no doubt that the
