One Issue.

We learn with regret that Republicans, in some
portions Of our Territory, are compromising with
their political foes, by agreeing to bury all Ma
tiond questions, and elect men to the Constitu-
tional Convention, regardless of their party pre-
ference, who shall attend only to the local wishes
of their constituents. This is all wrong. Mime
sofa will step into the Union with more RESPONSE
bAities, than any Territory that ever donned the
mantle Of State Sovereignty. She will be the
largest, the richest the youngest and strongest of
allthe States that have joined this commonwealth
of Empires let her be the freest too Let her
incoming strike staggering blow into the face
Of the Slavery Propagandists, where they are
now looking expcctantly, for aid and comfort.-
Let us disappoint those good men who now look
doubtingly upon as, from the hills and valles of
the East, and await our FIRST election with tremb-
ling hearts, by taking brave stand in the van
guard of human Freedom, and extending to the
oppressed and down-trodden of every cline, the
warm right hand of fraternal fellowship and con-
idence. Shall wea We have but to be united,
and recognize, instead Of ignore the worldwide
and all-important issues which divide the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties. Vote for no man,
however competent on local issues, VII ,se in
stincts harmonisc with the schemes and DO ugs Of
the Black Power. In view Of this, let every Re-
publican throughout the now Territory demand
distinct declaration of political principles, be-
fore he casts vote. By this course, we shall
triumph-not without. ~
