Would make .120--or clear maj.
In the above table, We have not claimed the
election as valid of the two Anti-L ecomptOn Demo
Gratis chosen la,t year from California, because we
know this is disputed, and that two rivals are to be
chosen in August, who will doubtless be Buchanan
men, and who viii have credentials from the Gov
ernor and State Department, and hence, We pre-
sumo, will participate in the organization OF the
House, whatever may be their fate thereafter We
have set down Messrs. Schwartz and Montgomery
of Pa. as likely to vote with the Buchanan men for
Speaker, as also the FIVE Democrats douglas mem
chosen from Inois-thOugh we regard this as by
no means certain. On the other hand, We have
clsssed Messrs. Clark, Haskin and Reynolds Of this
State, Adrain and Riggs of New-Jersey, and HEX
man of Pa, with the Republicans, because they
were chosen in good part by Republican votes and,
undoubtedly sympathizing with u, on most points,
will not vote against us in the organization. The
Slave States, in the main, have their Members yet
to choose; but we assume it as probable that they
will choose Members who will vote against us in
the organization, though many Of them, being
American, or Whig,, will only in the last resort
vote for the Administration candidate for Speaker
"a few, perhaps, not even then.
The case, then, lies just thus: If we elect all
the Members from Connecticut, Rhode Island and
M'nnesots, we can organize the House without
hesitation or difficulty, and so frame the Commit
tees as to give the friends Of Free SOIL Free Labor,
q more wisely Discriminating Tariff, the Home
stead bill, Retrenchment and Cheap Postage, an
ascendency in the next Congress which can hardly
be overcome On the other hand, the loss of two
or three Members in these three States may in
yolve another long and doubtful struggle for the
Speakership, and throw the Printing, &c. against
us, as in the XXAIYta Congress. To that Con-
gress House, the Slave Democracy elected less
than eighty Members: yet one hundred and three
votes were once cast for their candidate for
Speaker aud one hundred on the final ballot, when
lie was beaten by plurality of three.
Electors of Connecticut do you want the House
so organized that, though il may be brought to or
der an investigation into any future Iniquity Ike
the LecomptOp, that investigation may be delib
erately stAed by the Speaker appointing in con-
temptuous defiance of all parliamentary law ms.
jOrity Of opponents to sthe and crush it If you
do, vote for Bishop, Arrod \ Co., who have voted
once 90 10 organize the House. and viii vote so
again.
Do you want the House so organized that the
application of Free Kansas for Admission next
Winter, so as to be on hand for the Presidential
Election of l560, shall necessarily be referred 10 81
adverse Committee If you do, vo;e for Bishop
and Arnold who sustained at every step tie effort
10 force Kansas into the Union as 8 Slave State,
sgains the sll but unanimous protect Of her people
Do you want the House 80 organized that not
even the entrcaties Of the President, tie most
urgent necessities of the Treasury, can wrench
from its Committee of Ways and Means report in
favor of q more efficient and discriminating Tariff
until so late period in the Session that nothing
can possibly be done, because two-thirds vote is
requisite 10 permit bill to be even reported II
you DO, vote for Bishop, Arnold 4 Co., who have
done this once and Will doubtless do il again Il
they get chance.
Do you want the House 30 organized th.t its
Committee on Public Lands shall be imnoysbly
fixed against the principe Of Free Homes to be
prodered on the Public Lands TO every citizen who
will settle upon and improve q quarter section
thereof II you do wi,h to .tife thi. great meas
ure Of beDe6cence and patriotism, vote for Bishop,
Arnold 4 Co, BY whose aid the Land Committee
Of the late House WAS so packed, as that Of the
next House doubtless viii be if they shah be en-
ahled TO Go il.
But you want the opposite policy to triumph
il you want Kansas speedily admitted, not as 3
Slave State but - Free State, a Committee Of
Ways and Means tia. viii early report sud power
