SENATOR LONGS ADDRESS.
Gives Interesting early Days in
Kansas. at OsawatoI1ie.

AttilSHSs AT NySztfFHLOIfl1c.
Following Vice President Fairbanks
Senator Long spoke of the early tribu-
latiOns Of Kansas. He said:
Fifty years in the life of a man is
but day in the life of a nation Fifty
years ago this year. there were ezcit-
ing times in Kansas. From the birth
of the nation, attempts had been made
to settle the slavery question by COM
promise. There We're compromises in
the constitution made necessary in or
der that it might be agreed to and
ratified.
1.-The Missouri compromise of 1920
which admitted Missouri with slavery,
but dedicated to freedom all the ter
rltory west and north of the southern
boundary of Missouri extended, was
necessary in order to save the Union
then. Another compromise was made
in 1850 which admitted California free,
and gave the free states a majority in
the senate, thus destroying the equilib-
rum there between the free and slave
states, which had existed for half
century.
THE south knew that there must
be another slave state, or slavery was
doomed. There was no opportunity Of
securing one except by the division OF
Texas, which was impossible of con-
summation, although the act ad-
hitting that state gave 1t the privilege
of dividing into five states. And so It
was that the eyes of the south We're
turned to the plains of Kansas. kan
sas and Nebraska were marked for
slavery by the act organizing them
into territories That act provided that
the people of the territory should de-
termine whether or not slavery should
be permitted. It repealed the Mis-
souri, compromise and the intention
was to make a slave state here. In or
der to have a slave state it was neces-
sary that there should be slavery in
the territory. AS the country was but
sparsely settled, it became a contest
between the east, which was for free
dom, and the south, which was for
slavery. as to which could send the
greater number of people into this
territory Congress by that act con-
fessed Its inability to settle the slavery
question After so years of failure,
the contest was transferred to Kansas.
For two years the contest in imnnfgra-
ton Went on, but every vote that was
taken in the territory plainly indicated
that the east had won and the south
had failed.
''Then it was that fraud was re-
sorted to in order to win success for
slavery. Missourians came over here
in great numbers, rerna ined but day.
voted, and returned to their homes
They even brought with them their
/ friends from the south who also par
! ticipated in the elections This con
tinued for two years. and when 1855
rolled around. force began to be used
on both sides. Lawrence was attacked
and partially destroyed. Aissourians
came over to Kansas with their guns
and Kansans went over into Missouri
with their weapons. Both were to
blame for indefensible acts of violence
and crime, but fraud was first com
mitted on the real citizens of Kansas
which caused them to resort to force
Kansas would have been always free
If her own citizens could have deter
mined the question. Congress when II
abdicated its functions and said t.
