Douglas is the lnan 10 DO that thing for you.
We have several times referred to those pas:

trial hy jury, is not stringent enough 1t
would require less stretch Of authorlty tllan is
frequently exercised under The Fugitive Slave
act, to sweep aot only the whole Republican
party, but half tic Democrats in the North
into the NAV Of tho Legislation which Mr.
Douglas proposes. he distinctly specifies tho
"Republican party as the consp;ralors whom
