NJ II hoped that each county committee will immedi-
atey Issue the call for the County Convention hnd IL the

In the midst the great contest which now 80 ercey
waged by the slave power ofthe Nation aided BY the re
dent and his party against free labor and free institutions
II is perhaps needless to remind the people Of Ohio Of the
vast Importance and vital character the ISSUE and of
overwhelming necessity Of concerted and vigorous action
the part of all who prefer freedom TO slavery and free
to slave labor The desperate and persistent attempt Of
the Administration to force upon the people Of Kansas
slave constitutions the frauds forgeries murders and un
counted vilianes which have been perpetraed and up
hed sustained in that territory by the present domn
ant party the alarming encroachments that have been
made upon the rights of the Free States by the Dred Scot
decison the monster that Slavery national and
extends to all the territories the Union while Freedom
sectional and exist in our territories even If
every freeman therein shall demand It, and every egsa-
ture enact it, and can only be established by positive law
when they shall emerge from the pupage Of the Federal
nd
these hereses by the President and his party all couspe
to the freemen Of the free North to sense of the
danger and degradation which must follow tame subms
sion TO these encroachments.
The base and cowardly deseron Of our equal rights
which is nvovedi in the passage of the English swinde
by which Congress declares that 5000 inhabitants may
come into the Union as equal with Ohio IL they will
adopt Slave constitutions while IL they persist in prefer
ring to be Free State they shall wait outside and he
governed by the apponees of the Slave Power till they
have than double that population admits of no ex-
cuse apology, and must merit the stern condemnation
ofevery patriot and friend of justice and equal rights
The English Bill gives to the appointees the President
the entire control Of the ballot boxes and all the macn
cry OF the proposed vote In Kansas the question of the
admission to the Union under the Infamous Lecompton
Constitution. The bitter experience of the mast has
taught the world that fraud is too monstrous: no
Vllany too wicked corruption daring for the plant
'''is ana honest,
we have Reeder and Gear and Walker and Stanton
rapid succession beheaded at the imperous command
Of the Slave Power That power still controls the
the destnes of the Republic with purposes and plans un
changed Yet the freemen Of Ohio called upon TO ac
quesce in measure Of this character tamey submit
to this and bitter insult and dsgaace Added to all
these national evils the legislation the past winter in
Oho the principles of action announced and the acts per-
formed of such character to demand as they will
receive the condemnation of the veers tax PAYERS of
the State.
In view ofall these causes ask the Freemen of Ohio
without regard to their former political associations to
unite with us in administering such rebuke to the
arrogant Slave Power the Empire State the fair and
great West justly demands. Let them select their wis
est ablest and pures delegates and let the GRAND
COUNCIL OF REPRESENTATIVES, OF FREE LABOR on the
anniversary oft passage Of the glorious ordinance of
1857, which dedicated the soil of Ohio and the North West
to Freedom and free Institutions for ever be such dem
Dnstration as the cause and the times demand
