Territorial Apportionment in Kan
sas---Gov. Walker---The Herald of
FraedOm

In Gov. Walkers inaugural address and in
his subsequent public addresses he gave the
NEST unqualified assurances to the Free State
citizens, that at the next October election and
subsequently the utmost freedom should be
guaranteed to every resident Of the Territory
in the elective franchise ard that every c!ti-
zen should be protected in his right to vote.
The Herald of Freedom. a Free State paper
published at Lawrence. believing in the sin
cerity Of Walkers promises, has for several
months inculcatcd the duty of the Free State
party to take part in the approaching cleo
ton, and it would seem that 4 very general
determination prevailed i'll favor Of comply
ing with the urgent solicitations of Walker
and the Herald of Freedom. although doubts
were freely expressed as to the real design OF
the Governor, or his ability to redeem his
pledges to give them 4 free ballot box.
The bogus Legislature had passed law
authorizing the Governor on or before the
LIST of June to make an apportionmcnt. con-
stitutins districts for members of the future
Legislature. and in case the Governor failed
to make such apportionmcnt by the first o!
June. the duty dcvovcd upon 1.-The Speaker
Of the House and President of tie Council.
The Governor having failed to attend to
this duty. an apportionmcnt has just been
made by the Speaker and President aforesaid
which essentially DISTINGUISHES a majority of
the present citizens of Kansas, and places
the election of large majority of the mem
bcrs in the hands of small minority of the
inhabitants. residing in the counties con-
tiguouS to the Border Ruiliars of Missouri.
Concerning this appor,ionment, the last
