present is but apart, has for twenty years pro
duced nothing► but unmitigated evil, North
and South. But for it the character of the do
mestic institutions of the future new State
would have been a matter of too little interest
to the inhabitants of the contiguous States,
personally or colleetively, to produce among
them any political eniotion. Climate, soil,
production, hopes of rapid advancement, and
the pursuit of happiness on the part of the set
tlers themse!ves, with rood wishes hut with
nu interference from-without, would have qui
etly determined the question, which is at this
time of such disturbing character.
But we areconstrained to turn our attention
to the circumstances of embarrassment as they
now exist. It is the duty, of the people of
Kansas to - discountenance every act or purpose
of - resistance to its laws, Above all, the
emergency appealslo the citizens of the States,
and' especially of those contiguous to the Ter•
ritory, neither by intervention of non-residents
in elections, nor -by unauthorized military
force, to - attempt to encroach, upon or usurp
the authority of the inhabitants of the Terri

No citizen . of our country should permit
himself to forget that he is a part of its govern

therefore, the highest considerations of perso

tain, by whatever of power or influence he may
possess, the integrity of the laws of the repub
,
' •
Entertaining these views, it will be my im
perative duty to exert the whole power of the
Federal Executive to support public older in
the territory;- to vindicate its laws, whether
federal or local, against alt attempts of orga••
nized resistance • and so to protect its people

Although serious and threatening disturban

by the Gevernor in December last, were spee
dily quieted without the effusion of blood, and
in a antlersstory - manner:there is, I regret to
say, reason to apprehend , that disorders will
euntinue to weer there, with increasing ten
dency to violence. until 801116 decisive mea
sure be taken to dispose of the question itself.
which constitutes the inducement or occa
sion of internal agitation and of external inter
ference.
This, it seems to me. can - best be accom
plished hy providing that, when the' inhabi
tants of Kansas may desire it, and be of solli
nient numbers to constitute a State, a conven
tion ot, delegates, duly elected by the qualified
voters, shall assemble to frame a Constitution,.
