heard any good reason for Its being opened.
There is enough vacant farm land In the

TO glui the market. Open up the territory
and there wouldn't be one emigrant settle

and Nebraska for all the practical farmers
who are seeking new homes. Better save

negroes upon. IT Kansas knows when 1t
is well off 1t will meyer consent to the
opening up of the territory.
