Where Hall siands--Pln Him 20 the
Record,

her aud hypoor'toal, dirt-eating dema'
gogue, whenever he says he will vote to
undo next winter what he did last. OF
course no sensible man believes any such
thing. He win vote neat winter Just as
Buchanan tells him-he is tool Ia the
hands Of the South and win do just what
they desire. He voted for the English
swiudle. which ie how a laC Of he land
and has pledged himself to the South 10
carry out its obnoxious principles. Here
is that part Of the Bill which states the
consideration the South was TO receive,
in case the btibe was spurned;
But should majority Of the votes cast
be for the proposition rejected, il shall be
deemed aud held that the people Of Kan
sas DO not desire admission into he Union
with said constitution under the condi.
tions set forth IN said propositions and in
that event the people Of said Territory
are hereby authorized and empowered to
fofm for themselves a constitution and
State government, by the name Of the
State Of Kansas, according to the federal
Constitution, and may elect delegates for
that purpose WHENEVER AND NOT
BEFORE, IL is asoettaineo, by a census
duly and legally taken, that the popula
tion of said Territory equals or ereesds
tie ratio Of Representation required for a
member Of the House of Representatives
Of the Congress Of the United States.
There il is Ia plain English. There is
the record Judge Hall has lef, behind
him. Can ho deny il? Can he shift IN,
responsibility because the load bears
heavily upon him. He is plsdgsd-w,
repeat it-PLEDGED to carry out tn,
provisions Of that bill. TO make Kansa
pay the penalty Of her refusing to COM
in as a slave State, by being Kept out o
the Union until the next regular census
and perhaps much longer, oil because sb,
insists on having constitution Of be-
choice The South understood clearly
what the bargain was to which Hall wa
a knowing party aud they are free to ex
pross it. The Charleston Mercury, tn,
leading democratic paper at the South
states the bargain in terms as follows;
The postponement Of the adm ission o
Kansas into the Union until she obtain
the population which a member Of Con
gress represents, was to allow the Soutl
another chance to win the Territory -
Whether this result shall very probabl,
be realised or not, this was the consider
alton offered to the South in the confer
ence act,
Need we present any further evidence
But Hall is pledged to this bill not only
by his own vote, HIS OWN DEED AM
ACT, but by the platform Of his own pa
y to which he has subscribed and who
he dare not repHdiate. Here are the res
olutions passed at the last Democrat
State Convention at Columbus. Hall ha
not disowned them and they show jus
where he stands;
Resolved, That we accept the adjus
ment Of the late Kansas controversy, by
the passage at the recent session Of Con
gress of the Conference Bill. for III,
conditional admission Of Kansas into the
! Union.
Resolved, That in future. we are op
posed 10 the admission Of new stat,
Into the Union until the population there
of shall equal the ratio for q Representa-
tive 10 Congress.
Thus We have shown by the Englisl
Bill itself, by the Acknowledgements Of tht
South and by his o'On party platform. thai
Hall stands squarely upon the doctrine o
interyentiu-he believes that $4,000 IN
habitants are enough for slave state, bu
that free state must have three or fou
times that number. II Kansas applies
next winter. with the Leavonworth or am
other regularly formed and ratified con
stitution, Judge Hall will vote agains
her admission. just as he voted to force
slavery on her last winter.
