April: and had organized working Clubs all over the
Isard. lie then introduced Hon. FREDERICK L. STAN
ToE Ex-Governor of Kansas, WAC was welcomed
with loud applause.
Mr Stanton said he had the h nor to appear in thai
city before, but with different audience and for
different purpose. He then advocating the claims
of James Buchanan for the Presidency. But he
claimed 10 lie sincere then as ne was now. Mr. Bu'
chanan and his parry proclaimed their intention 70
allow the PEOPLE Of Kar TO regulate their affairs and
reject or ADMIT Slavery. Under Mr.. Pierces admins
tfaiion this right denied and the Territorial Gov
trrment was usurpation maintained by fraud. ms
Gss a matter Of history. lie had believed that un1er
Mr. Buohansns adm inistraiion different principles
would prevail No man can deny that the Kansas and
Nebraska bill pledged to tho people OF Kansas the
right to conduct their own affairs without mOesta-
ton, ard the right c to be received lnto
The charge he had 10 make against the Democratic
party and the he their enemy and was de-
teIm1ed to defeat and destroy them, was that thsy
lad proved false 10 the pledges OF lS1l nder tue

Ii, Of it the principle he had referred TO- IL became
his fortune to lie concerned in the admit rdon OF the
law he had helped to pass and he fsh bound 20 carry
ont the pledge which they bad mado TO The people OF
Kapsss. He would pass over the frauds and Violence
the violation Of public and private Iigh,s and c'ne
down to the points where all these difficulties con-
vrge-,he point on which the destinies OF Il 'nsas

to admit that this Constitution bound the peopl OF
Kansas. Ii never has been eontended tnat tnle was

Everybody knows that the great mass OF the people
were utterly opposed to the whole concern. Aiter-

ling the people vote under all the restrc IONS oI

was done eoIe any movement Of the President or the
psrty for the adoption Of the Lecompon CONSTITUTE n
in the Congress OF the United States Whatever might
rave been the obligations OF the people OF Kansas De
fore vet when Ill der regular law, they had determ;
iIed the opposite of this PLAN that was distinct aud
unequiyocal withdrawal OF their supposed application

| Constitution. True, the Democrats have dispute
an opg the mselyes to the right OF tue Territory 10
exclude Slavery. but this question is not in the
case at ALL This is the Of the usurpers presenting
Constitution TO the people Of Kansas when they mao
repudisted ard here is the President and the Demo-
cratic party insisting on drsggir the people OF Kansas
into the Union under Constitution they had rejected
When the Democratic party did this they were false 10
their pledges and no honest man could 90 with them
There has been no withdrawal OF this policy on their

As be claimed to be sncsre in 1885, every principle Of
