Let this battle be decided 10 favor of Freedom in the

And because it Is necessary that IL shOut be done is
exactly the reason why it will be done. IL cannot be
settled otherwise, because it involves question of JUS
tee and If conscience Ii is not merely quss-
ton of policy but ones ion of moral right and duty
II is wrong in our judgment, to pepetuate by our
votes, or TO extend Slavery.
1t is very different thing when the stakeholder pro-
poses extend Slavery; for that is, with him. only
question of merchandise. Men, of whatever race or
nation in estimation, are men, not merchandise.
According 10 faith they all have natural right to
be men; but in the estimation Of the other party
African slaves are Lot men, but merchandise IL IT,
therefore, nothing more or less with them than tariff
question; question of protecting commerce. With us
it is question Of human rights and therefore, when
it is settled aud settled in favor of the rgtt It will
stay settled just as every question that is settled ia
favor of the right always does.
But If il be taken merely a question of polcy IL
is equally plain that it will be settled in favor of the
Republican side, because highest policy is the de-
veopment of the resources and the increase of the
population, wealth and strength Of the Repabic

lGreat spplause. Every man sees that this wealth
and strength and greatness 10 beacqured by human
labor, guided by human intelligence and human pur-
pose. Every man knows that the slave even if he be
