- Douglas aud his followers are running
his humbug of Popular Sovereignty clear into
the ground. He is erecting it into fundamen-
tai political principle, and pervertng the truth
Of history in order to give plausibiliiy to this
mistaken assumption. Ii is not true that the
principle of Territorial Sovereignty was ever
admitted into the Government of the Territories
before it was advanced in the Kansas Nebraska
bill, and in that bill it is not advanced as q
general principle, but mere expedient Tor
disposng of the slavery question for the time
being. Mr.. Douglas does not propose to give
the people Of the Territories absolute sovereign
ty; he would neither have them choose their
own Governor nor Judges, and be limits them
under the control Of the general government IN
various other respects A great deal OF his talk
about Popular Sovereignty can hardly be called
specious; il is blankly absurd.
