vision of the registry is the first thing to

{,here be an honest desire to give the peo

be done by the red governor. If, on the

action they did; and now you having re-
quested of nips a Committee r to set forth.
the reasons which should'move you --to

we have to say in Connection With the
above; . -
I First The so-called Legislature which
1 •
assumes to legislate for Kansas, and whose
enactments-pa are to enforce, and which
vie are called - upo l n to obey,- was elected
by an armed mob from a neighltoring
State, amidst scenes of blood and violence,
and in direct opposition to tht.3 . 'wishes !)f
a large majority of the actual r9side.nts of
the Territory and the h6dy of people
which are, and have been opposed to these
acts of fraud and mobocracy, always have
been, and still are irtz vast majority in
Kansas Territory, and if the people of
Missouri were .tO withdraw their support,
and. the General Government the cow - -
.060 c, it , se& fit to :acpord them, they
Would.: , searcely b,e heard ,Of in' the, rer4qt, l
est -corner.pf Kansas.
86:cond, .The so called Legislature and
laws being. thus fraud, and being thus
op
posed by the majority of the people, who
alone hate the right to govern, we deny
that any one is under any moral oblige
don to obey the enactments of the so
, called Legislature.
Thi' -d The assumed Legislature, being
thus a fraud, it proceeded at once to dis
play the spirit of fraud and virulence, by
passing such enactments as are oppressive
and tyr . anical; by making all the offices
that are usually elected by the people,
and alone responsible to them for their!
powers and continuance in office, depend
ant solely upon the will of the so-called
Legislature, by imposing test oaths upon
voters, a thing unheard of among civil
ized people; b y - giving Sheriff's, and tlteir
other minions of power; the selection of
jurors, thus deptiving`the peo
ple of the 'right of trial by jury,. by de
preeing-the death p,egalty ag ainst any one
who shall einice away tisrave from bon
dage, though one " may steal fifty limes
his market value; and escape with aterm
of years of imprisonment frequently short.
Chapter 154 Sec. 4,5, 6, Page 716."
[The fourth resolution is on freedom.of
speech.]
"The assumed Legislature passed many
other acts, especially designed to deprive
the majority of the people of the right-of
governing, and calculated to peipetuate
their own infamous power of tyranny and
usurpation ; and we hold that any Man
claiming to be a Free State' man, should
crimson with shame when„he proposes-to
enforce the enactments of the so-called
Legislature, in view of the source from
whence they all emanate, and the eaormi
ty of their assumed laws,
Fifth, We consider that the aoltnowl
i edgment of fray duleat anthorityjs
, dangerous precedent which should be
I guarded against-most rigorously and es

We consider that you are in
debted to the Free State settlers of this
community for the comfortable home you
now occupy, and for the bright future
prospects you. have, and line inducement
they had to interest themselves , for you
was, in relation to the amcalled laws, your
express declaratiun that "I have, nothiug .
to do with thein,"
The ahove we urge as reasons for the
request we now make, that you forthwith
resign any and all offices you may hold.
derivnd from • the assumed .Legislature of

request, we sh4ll 'expeot your
