From the Chicago Press and Tribune

FROM the Chicay0 lrcss anu tribune.
We stepped into the tflice of the
County Clerk. a few days since, to
look at the files of the State Register
for 1910, which were then required by
law to he sent to all the Comfy
Clerks III the State. and to be pre-
served by them as part OF the public
records of the State. We found that
the Register for November Sth, 1919,
had been torn out from the file and

From the Lcavcnworth Times

The believers in the doctrine that
the people OF the Territories should
decide whether they viii or will not
have slavery. must be strangely infat
uated il they continue to worship at
the shrine of Douglas and johnson.
Mr. Douglas has so often exposed
his inconsistency on this point: he has
SO frequently avowed doctrines in the
South at variance with those he has
expressed 10 Northern audiences. that
man must DO blind indeed who will
still consider him reliable advocate
of the principles he Processes to repre-
sent. Here is an extract of speech
OF Douglas. made at New Orleans in
1858. Immediately alter his reelection
10 the Senate:
"Slavcs are regarded as property.
and are placed on equal footing with all
other property. Hence. the owner o'
slaves-ths same as the owner OF any
other property-has right to remove
10 any Territory. aud carry his prop
city with him"

seems pretty clear that the south will

no opinions TO conceal none but he
was willing to avow in any part of the
Union, a very respectable citizen OF
TINS place who was invited to seat
on the stand with him. put into his
hand the following question, which he
was mOSt'respectfully requested TO an
swer in the course of his remarks -
The Judge on receiving it { it was be-
fore he rose TO speak J read it very at
tentively, and resuming his converse
ton with the gentleman who offered it,
respectfully acquiesced in the propri
ETY. of the question, and promised to
reply to it in the course of his speech:
"Will Judge Douglas be so kind as
to oblige fellow citizen by stating
before the people here assembled his
answer to the following
QUEsrIoS.-"Do you hold, and If
elected President of the United States,
would you carry out the doctrine that
the people of a territory, before it be-
comes a State. have the power, under
the Federal Constitution, and not
withstanding the Dred Scott decision.
to prohibit or exclude it thcrefrom?
"ln other words:
"Do you affirm that the people of
Territory have the Constitutional right
to crush the cockatrice's eggs. as soon
as these are deposited in its nest by
the propagandists of Slavery, or must
they tolerate the incubation. and wait
till the eggs become full grown and ac-
tive vipers, that can be pursued and
exterminatcd only by the newly erea
ted sword of State authority"
With this question before him,
which he promised to answer, the
Judge arose and addressed the people
for an hour and half: but for some
cause or other-you can Judge as well
as The not only did NOT answer the
QUESTION, but very carefully avoided
all allusion to it. | merely give you
the fact. with no comment of my own.
preferring that you will bestow such
reflections upon it as candor and fidel-
ity to truth require. But it seems to
mo the public should know what
questions Judge Douglas refuses to
answer, and conjecture rs best they
may, the reason why he chooses to
conceal his opinions" on that most
interesting point. S.
1t is quite probable that the Judge
will make other speeches in different
localities, and as it is possible that he
forgot to answer the question above
given, it may be well to hand it up to
him again and again, until he shall
have found time TO answer it.
