Book Description
Excerpt from Kansas and the Supreme Court: Speech of John P. Hale, of New Hampshire; Delivered in the United States Senate, January 19 and 21, 1858 Under that pledge they were elected; but there were certain preliminaries which were to be gone through with - a census and a registry to be ta ken and made in the various counties - before they were qualified to vote. The Territory of Kansas was divided, if I am not mistaken, into thirty-four counties; and we have the authority of Governor Walker for saying - it has never been controverted, and the honorable Senator from Ohio [mn pugh] called upon the President for information on that fact, which was charged by Governor Walker, and I have never heard it denied - that in fifteen out of those' thirty-four counties, steps were not taken by the Govern ment, by which the people could come to the polls. The census and registry were omitted. So says Governor Walker in his letter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
