THE STRUGGLE FOR (Copyright, 1000, by THE OREGONIAN'S HOME STUDY CIRCLE: AMERICAN POLITIC ALPARTIES iBT-EON. JESSE MACT. xrr. The Opposing: Vlexvs. democratic Action had precipitated the contest between freedom and slavery In X&nms and for years the hand-to-hand content wrfth ballots or with rifles upon the .Western:" prairies was matched by tho forensic battle in the Legislative halls at Washington. One-sided as the question may seem to Northern view, it cannot ba denied that there was a real and eanwst conviction upon the side of slavery also. The Southerners felt "With growing bitter ness that the North was constantly taking unfair advanages. They saw themselves shut out from the steady march of pros perity, by which tho Northern States were growing rich and strong. They saw state after state admitted to the Union, with conotttutions forbidding slavery, afer Texas, the- last slave state, bad come In. A generation had grown up honestly be lieving that the system, of slavery pos sessed all moral and constitutional sanc tions, and that the Northern opposition wao unjust, illegal, bigoted and utterly Intolerable. They understood that by the paosage of the Kansas-Nebraska, act Kansas "had been legally dedicated to slavery, ond that the ..ahatlcal and anti aavery Immigrants and their supporters nere plotting to wrest from the South by fraudand guile that which was right ly hers." Almost any meane of frustrat ing this nefarious scheme peemed Justi fiable In the eortreme danger which threat ened Southern welfare. Kansas lost meant the jJerpetuatlon of Southern ln dus'rfal Inferiority, losu of numerical su periority in the Senate, and the unen durable political supremacy of the over bearing Yankee. To the North, on tho other hand, a great moral Question wa at stake. Slav ery was a .sin, a moral cancer, sapping the Nation's 1'fe. To check Its further spread, was the first duty of every man who loved hd country and believed In the law c-f rlghteousneax By the Missouri Compromise thCKktlon had been commit ted to a restrictive policy. The Kansas Nebraska act which ropoaled that com promise had violated the Nation's pledge and handed over to slavery sqll made sa cred to freedom. Nothing could be hoped from pro-slavery politicians. Dbuble deallng, trickery and falsehood had char acterized their course. The time had now come when every possible effort must be made to render effective the moral ear nestness, the solf-sacriflcing love of f re dom and of country which had swept through the Norlh like a prairie fire at this latost -violation of political good faith. i Compromise was no longer possible, the .Nation's death struggle was at hand, and for it the Kansas dispute cleared the way and marshaled the opposing forces. The First Territorial Government. Kansas, then, was to be slave or free, aa "popular sovereignty" shortd deter mine. Pro-slavery immigrants were first In the field and were able to elect the first delegate o Congress in 1834. The first Federal Governor. Reeder, a pro-slavery Democrat, arrived soon after and ordered an election for a legislature. This took place In March, 1B55. The census taken the month before reported nearly 3000 legal voters In the territory, but the elec tion returns showed 5427 votes cast for the pro-slavery candidates and 791 for others. Large bands of men crossed the Missouri line on election day, voted and returned to Missouri by night The free-state immi grants who had been coming in larger and larger bands for actual settlement since the Summer of 1S54 naturally de clined to recognize a Legislative body so chosen. But the forces of slavery, 'sup- Fmnlclin Pierce. ported by the Federal Administration at Washington, held their advantage and persisted In casting the color of lawless ness upon overj act of the free-soil set tlers, whom they constantly charged wth Tesistanco to "the constituted authorities" of the territory. The Legislature took extreme pro-sla-very measures, adopting all Missouri's slave laws and adding some 50 statutes. Imposing the death'-peitnlty for offenses against slavery, and requiring every offi cer, candidate, juage and voter (If chal lenged) to take oath to support the fugi tive slave law. j The Topeka Constitution. Under such a government there was no place for the Northern Immigrant with ..anti-slavery sentiments, and the free state men took immediate steps to have Kansas admitted as a state without wait ing or an enabling act of Congress. Such lack of formality was not unprecedented. California had come in thus, and so had jOther territories. A constitutional con vention, attended only by the free-state settlers, met at Topeka in October, 1855, ;and formulated a state constitution, which prohibited slavery. This, having been submitted to popular vote, was adopted bjj the Xree-state party, the pro-slavery party ignoring the whole proceeding. A Legislature, a full set of state officers and & Representative to Congress were also elected, and Kansas applied to Congress for admission. A bill admitting the new state with the Topeka constitution passed the House of Representatives, but was re jected by the Senate. From the territo rial government which President Pierce was determined to maintain the Kansas free-state settlers could expect only per secution; a government they must have, and what better could they do than to stand by that which they had established, even though it was refused Federal sanc tion by the partisan Administration at Washington? So the state Legislature met In July, 185S. but only to be dispersed 4 by Federal soldiers acting under orders from Washington. President Pierce had pledged "the Interposition of the whole power of the General Government as well to maintain the laws of the territory as those of the Union." After repeated failures to put the free state government into operation the last effort, in January, 1657, having been brought to naught by the arrest of tho members of the Legislature bv Federal officers the Topeka constitution was fin-. any aoanaoned. Civil War In Kansas. Meantime the territory had drifted into a state of -anarchy and desultory warfare. One may well feel surprised that, con sidering the Inflammable state, of affairs, violence and bloodshed were so long avoided, but the year 1S56 -was memorable for the great suffering endured by the people of Kansas. The two governments and their supporters were mutually re sisting and disobeying each other. As sassination, murder and Ineendlarismvon the part of the "border ruffians" werean awered by Similar 'deeds' by tho ifeWoil- KANSAS IN 1855-58 Seymour Eaton.) DIRECTED BY PROF. SEYMOUR EATON era. It Is not necessary to say to which party belongs the greater guilt. Tho most violent passions were aroused and acts of cruelty and barbarism on one- side or tho other were of frequent occurrence. The insecurity of life and property spread ter ror throughout the settlements. This law lessness," which drenched the borders of unhappy Kansas with blood, was quite other than the rudeness and lawlessness common to frontier communities, and far more serious, more ominous, for it was based upon profound moral and political convictions, upon settled and Intense de termination. With good reason the at tention of the whole country waa con centrated upon Kansas. Thoughtful men looked with foreboding Into the future. It was a period of great discouragement to the Northern immigrants. Every sort o'f power seemed to be in the hands of their enemies, by whom they were daily insulted "and abused. Lawrence, which bad become headquarters for the free state forces, was. threatened by a pro slavery mob In the Fall of 1S55, and actu ally sacked and burned the following Sprlng. In fanatical retaliation John Brown and his followers murdered five pro-slavery settlers, and the contest was thus made more bitter and desperate. There was, however, on the part of the anti-slavery settlers no thought of aban doning the struggle, though men came -to realize with what a great price was free dom to be won for Kansas. The stream of Northern immigration grew smaller, but It was not checked, and every com pany now came equipped with Sharpe's rifles. The North began to cast up her resources. An article In the Springfield (Mass.) Republican contained these lines: "We can perceive no reason why vre or the North should appropriate to ourselves the whole terror and dread of w&rv We cannot tell -why the whole weight of Its heaviest strokes, will be for us, albeit our Southern friends evidently so regard It. We have more charcoal than they have; we have mora salt peter; we have more brimstone; we have more lead; we have more bone and blood and nerve and muscle. Will they have a trial by theso? Are they ready for it? Are they eager for the clinch of death? Let them beware. In this spirit the struggle went on. For every1 free-state man slaughtered for his faith a score of free-state men equally earnest and more sternly resolved stepped over the border. There were good reasons, foreseen from the first by wise men of the North, why In a continued contest between freedom and slavery based upon Immigration free dom had the great advantage. To make Kansas- a slave state there must bo clavs and slaveholders there. Now, a slave was a very valuable pieco of property, and his owner was likely to be slow about taking him to a part of the country where it was altogether possible that ho might J cease to be property and become a. "per son. Property Is proverbially timid, and no property had so good reason for timid ity In Kansas as slave property. "Even when a Southern planter had determined to sell his estate and remove -with his slaves to aid in pre-empting the tiew ter ritory for the beneficent Institution, such a transfer was a matter of time often much time. Then, the plari for sending to Kansas Southern xnerf who -Were not ham pered by slave ownership was not one to command universal confidence. Pro-slavery men without slaves had been known to become strong opponents of slavery un der certain conditions. t Tho South had had experience of that in the case of California. Moreover, the loose rabble of the baser sort, such as the border ruf fians of Missouri, despite their ferocious temper and adventurous spirit, could not be depended upon to win in the long, steady, unyielding fight to the death for home and right and country which the convinced anti-slavery man was ready to enter upon. On the other hand, large numbers of trained, successful business men in the North were able quickly to transfer their interests to a new locality. Farmors. me chanics, merchants could follow their callings In the new settlements, and there was an abundance of eager young man hood seeking avenues to fortune and use fulness for whom Kansas offered an- at tractive field. And so the freestate pop ulation gained steadily ovor that from the South, and.by,the end of the year 185C the New England Emigrant Aid Society felt that its, work was done, Its- battle won. There were four men for freedom In Kansas to every one for slavery. Note. Study No. XIV will be con cluded on Monday, July 23. Danjcer In Democratic Success. New York Journal of Commerce. A glance at the names and states of the Senators whose terms expire next March is enough in itself to afford the assur ance that a vlctorj' for the head of the silver ticket would carry with it a silver Senate. Mr. Bryan cannot well be elected without carrying nearly every state which he carried before, with several large Republican states added. His party has already chosen silver men in place of the two Gold Democrats Caffery, of Louisiana and Lindsay of, Kentucky whose terms expire in 10L Among the Republicans who retire are Baker of Kan sas, Carter of Montana, Shoup of Idaho, Thurston of Nebraska, Warren of "Wyo ming and Wolcott of Colorado. Here is a group of six states almost certain to choose silver Legislatures if they give a majority to the silver Presidential ticket.

There are other Re publican Senators also whose seats would be lost If the more sangulno claims of the silver, parties, were verified. Messrs. El klns of West Virginia, Nelson of Minne sota and Bewail of New Jersey are among tho Republican Senators whose states are claimed by some of the silver extremists. It Is not within the range of reasonable probabilities that these states will choose sliver Legislatures; but If they choose Bryan Presidential Electors the Legisla tures are likely to go with them. Even if a sound-money majority of a vote or two existed on paper when the Senate met next March it might be easily over come by -the exercise of executive pres sure and patronage upon Senators from states which have been doubtful on the silver question. Who can believe, in view of the experience of Mr. Cleveland In 1S93, In converting a silver Senate into a sound-money Senate by a. majority of 11, that a, special session called by Bryan to repeal the gold-standard law, with the avowed object of putting an end to the panic following his election, would not witness an equally effeotive exercise of Executive influence?

They are bankers, manufacturers, brewers, merchants, and business men of various kinds. They are solidly opposed to free sliver at the ratio of 16 to L and will not vote for any man or any party that favors such a scheme. They are in open revolt.

San Francisco Chronicle The evidences of .Ufa belonging to tho Preglacial Age are rare in California; still a spoclmen has been discovered, .near "tha coast in San Mateo County, if the state ment contained in a Halfmoon Bay dis patch may be relied upon. A-well-preserved skull of tho mammoth Is said to have been recently taken out of the bed of Pllarcltos Creek by soma boys who were employed fix hauling: sand at a point about a mile east of Halfmoon Bay. Tfio skull Is reported to Tie about five feet in length, and portions of the tusks a foot .long aro attached tb It and are six inches in diameter at the junction with the bone. These extend into the cerebral cavity. Bones of tho mammoth were also found in tho neighborhood some years ago. Tho discovery of these remains Is no proof, that the mammoth over wandered at large during life in these parts. The ovldences are, of course. Indisputable that great herds of these preglacial beasts pas tured in the Valley of the Yukon and on tho shores of Siberia and the Bearing; Sea. During some violent convulsion of Nature these animals were overwhelmed by 4great ice sheets, which enveloped tho far rorth, and many of their carcasses have been preserved therein up to the present time, hides, hair, flesh, bones and tusks being found In perfect condition. Mines of mammoth Ivory were profitably worked In Alaska long before the territory became. a field for the search of gold. These mammoth remains bavo been discovered In tho placers of tho 'Klondike and at other points In tho frozen banks of the Yukon and Its tributaries. There would be nothing improbable in tho assumption that7 the mammoth remains now1 un earthed on pllarcltos Creek near tho shores' of Halfmoon Bay had Teen de posited at the point where found by a stranded ice- floe brought down from the far North at some remote- period by tho ocean current which sweeps down tho Western Coast of. the continent. " The only evidences-oft the mammoth life which once lnh&bitedv-the. earth found anywhere in the vlolnltjt were tho. foot- prints of the mammoth, sloth which, wero Uncovered in the Carson XNevada),sand stone quarries.. "Wyoming is tho. most fer tile field on this continent, outside of Alaska, for the fossil remains of the gi gantic animals which existed here in past geological ages. The University of Wyo ming has secured from the sandstones of that state the largest and most perfect and complete collection of these fossils in existence. If any of these gigantic animals ever had their habitat In California, tho changes which, ice and flood and other agencies have since produced have swept away all traces of .them. The- Calaveras I skull of -prehistoric man which Bret Harte immortalized In verso belongs to tho world of fiction, not of fact Evert though wo are short on fossil remains, it might ilot require much straining of the Imag ination to assume that the diminutive horned toad of tho Southern counties Is the degenerate descendant of tho horned dinosaur, which ranged from 12 to 15 feet In length and whose fossil remains have been excavated from the plains of Lara mie, or that the nimble lizard found ev erywhere in tho state is tho direct de scendant of tho gigantic saurlans of the Reptilian Age. A Great American Tenor. Chicago Tribune. Charles R. Adams, In his prime the most accomplished ''and successful of American operatic tenors, died at Harwich. Mass., on the Fourth of July In the 66th year of his age. Mr. Adams was born lrt Charlestown, Mass. His first vocal les sons wero taken in Boston, and for a few years during his youthful career he was a favorite cholc and concert singer and so loist for the Handel and Haj'den Society. About the close of the Civil War he went to Europe, where his success was imme diate. He became one of. the principal tenors of the grand opera, at Vienna, a position he held for nine years. He alBO had engagements for three years In the German opera at Pesth and for three years at the Imperial Opera-house in Ber lin, and sang two seasons at Covent Gar den and. one season at Seals, Milan.

In solid stationary structures the. China man can supply his own needs unaided; ,but tho field for producing thoso aggre gations of engineering and mechanical skill based on the theory or application of movement, especially of economical movement, lies unbroken, and the soil is rich. The idea of economy in movement is absolutely lacking In tho Chinese a singular circumstance, as there is no oth er nationality so strongly economical, even to the point of parsimony, as the Chinese. This trait Is shown in his dwell ings, In hrs clothes, and In all his de tails of Jiving, except in those where movement Is the main theme. The de velopment that Is to come will be, there fore, along this Jlne, and will show Itself primarily in meinoas oi moving peopie and goods namely, In means of trans portation; secondly in the methods of moving the great untouched mineral woalth from its existing subterranean hiding places to tho surface, that is. In mining; and, thirdly, in all matters of construction whoso parts -are moving-1 namely, machines. If, therefore, I were asked to enumer ate the relative importance of engineer ing development, I should reply means of transportation; hydraulic machineryr mining; and then, thoso machines which can compete against a very Jow-priced manual labor, and which can. if poslble, enter a field of work not now undertaken, such as electric lighting.
