SPEECH OP HO if ALEXANDER H, STEPHENS, Os Georgia, , r „! m the House of Representatives, on the 11 tk • i/irck, 1 856, on the resolution from the Cbm- V.tv / Election*, asking for power to send for and papers in the Kansas election case. Xtie gentleman on mv right to whom I have al i, Mr. Kunkel,) said, in the course of his re ,,-ts yesterday, that we, this House, have got a to go, and have often gone, into an inquiry i- validity of the laws of the States in judg -j-..»t' elections to this House. Sir, Ido not deny .. I admit that we may pass upon and judge the validity of any law coming before us in ..:l eases, just as any court may do, and upon v.'itch grounds and such grounds only as courts .. properly do. The grounds upon which this . is sought courts will never inquire into, .: we have no right to do it. There are some touching legislation and the rules gov the law-making power which must he con 'd as closed ; and when judgment is render hem it must stand until the great day of iadgment. Simmons—Will the gentleman allow me to Sttn a question ? " \\ r s ..yhens—With pleasure. \; r - unions —I ask whether a judgment is f'i! any purpose whatever, until it be shows ~ -he party in whose name it is, is the true \jr. Stephens—To ascertain the true and proper -i v fa part of the proceedings before judgment. , L. of the matters to be settled by the - : i e nt, and when once settled by judgment fin reml- red by a court of competent jurisdiction •:.e subject matter, it is settled forever. ..-her the party in whose favor it be rendered true party or not, cannot he inquired into . r-v.: -is or elsewhere. And so in this instance - ns presented themselves as the elected repre viv.s of the people of Kansas, in their Legis- Tiiev presented their credentials: "the ~v.-Dor claiming the right to pass judgment ju :Jv in their favor, certified that they were the cr and true party. They then took tip their rjj credentials in the usual way of Legislatures, t 1 came to a similar judgment, as to a large ma in both Houses. That judgment, viewed inner wav you please, is filial on lliat question. i> mv answer to the gentleman. ;tin* gentleman from Pennsylvania, in speak .f liie inconsistency of Gov. Reeder’s course •ireven he seemed ready to admit his great in c .insistencies Mr. Kunkel--No, sir; I said it-was not necessa » ;u mv argument to prove that Governor Reeder nus consistent. (r. Stephens--And the gentleman added that uld not speak for his consistency. Now. .. it I was about to submit to the House is, wheth r anybody can defend his course? I intend to - ak of the facts as they are detailed before us in : se reports, and as we know them to be. He ; ■) dulv appointed Governor of Kansas. He ae -: red the trust and was in ollice, when, according is otvu showing, the election which took place a that Territory on the 30th of March, was held •j pursuance of his own proclamation. Twenty ft members of the House of Representatives, and ; -tec-n members of the Legislative Council were r.icied. These were the numbers of which the |i: ises were respectively composed. He assumed t right to judge of the election returns of these •nibers. The rules governing the elections were v'Tibed by himself, and very rigid ones they T:. * judges of elections were required not ■J.i v any non-resident to vote, and to take an atb that they would not. These returns were ..mined to him, and he examined them. He viried the returns, and gave certificates to seven i m rubers of the House, and rejected but nine. 5* gave certificates to ten members of the Conn ate! resected three. He ordered a new election be held, to till the places of those vacated bv hniself, but the two Houses, as I have slated, as umiug the right to judge of the qualificatious of heir own members after they met, decided in fa ior of those who had the highest number of votes ■a the first election. But, sir, ii was thro.* months and upwards from tae holding of this .March election until the Legis ; ire met. He then said nothing of what we r bear of the manner of this election. But he, »dov.-mor, upon being notified that they were or ;«:,ized in obedience to his own call, addressed m as the legally assembled and constituted .-gidature of the Territory. As late as the 21st : J uly, after the Houses had acted upon, the subject ' ''•■ contested sats in the case of th>: nine member* icilm nrejectedbf Iml he again ad «svd them in a message, anil in it he says : riling of an invasion. He says nothing of suh gation—nothing of “martial music” asd “artil -•v"—nothing of “border ruffianism''— nothing " act ■ i.i in the cases of Contest- referred to. Rut addressed them then as the legally constituted -’mature of the Territory. If, therefore. Gov. • ier had the right to judge of the election re as he claimed, was not his acguiesence in the j -nos tap Houses on matters pertaining to srurbanization an affirmance ou his part of their ■ M’l.e*t in those cases? And at his instance t-i i '.vt- now go behind, not only the judgment of lluasvs of the Legislature on these questions, i.i> affirmance of that judgment by au official rtof Governor Reeder himself? ! dr, 1 wish to nottce some other matters r. cave dropped in this debate. Another gentle- Ein from Pennsylvania, on nty right, [Mr. Catnp -i. gave as a reason why this investigation ■»id be gone into—why we should set aside c r Reeder’s own judgment is this case— *! he was a gentleman of high character—a Eaof worth, standing high in the estimation of i pie of his State, ami that this investigation '• lue him as sucli. Well, Mr. Speaker, I say gentleman that, if what Governor Reeder ■t -ays be really true, he certainly has forfeited -• all just claims he may have had to the ? and exalted opinions of his countrymen ; I Handy shows himself guilty of the most : • and gross dereliction of duty that anv oflicer in the whole history idfthe country - *r guilty of. The gentleman from Pennsyf tuia must admit that if the Territory committed ■s charge was invaded by an armed force, bv 1 a the legally qualified voters of the Territory driven from the polls in every district save i and the polls seized by non-residents, who violence carried the election—if that be true, M. a (inventor Reeder now affirms to be true — that took place which he now says did take la.'S, and lie silently sat by and saw all, and af ■rwards recognized these invading hordes as the July elected Legislature of the people, as he cer tan L did, then he was guilty of a base disregard of ins official duty, without a parallel in our his pry, and one that no depth of infamy and degra ’• 11 « dd lie too low to assign him to, for. -lr. t amphell, of Pennsylvania—ls the gentle mu from ( ,rgia will allow me, I desire to ask ei, ii_jEc.se things can be substantiated, why de '/• 'y’rayr Ileeder this investigation ? Gov v - : KetJi-r is ready to prove that his course was ’ -iC-nr, honorable and proper. 1 ask that the j :a,m will hear him and then decide. • Stephens—-Governor Reeder can never show i “ 10'"urse was proper ami becoming an offi -1 position, if what he states he true. I • t tins investigation, because I do not . L “. ! * r *?ht to make it, Ido not regard it as * ray duty to make improper investigation a a man who, by his own statement, ■ : '.‘lf to have been guiltv of a gross dis : '-j his official duty. So far as he is con yjl, " * showing makes no favor with me. y?' a man comes here and on his own state , u of his own mouth, makes it appear, if - 5 - nient is to he accredited, that he was guilty neglect of duty, it does not com • I.mto my favor. Sqch statements op calls -/jgatiqn have not ttiiicli force in inducing L ‘T'iuiwhis example in the commission of a or ln disregarding my official duty. Hut •H i was about to say was, tliat if his statement ; , !*' 18 not now entitled to that high enco ■•l '.\ai '.i the gentleman pronounced upon R he, as Governor of a Territory, permit unheard of outrages to be committed "i'll ■ ;t a word of complaint, but giving his - ’ - yf the whole of them—which, upon his - -'oT 1 ?"’ >’ ou must a dmit he did—then he is : - en ‘cd to that high position which the gen “ w says he occupied in the estimation of the ■f Pennsylvania before he left that State, i r ' ,3 . v he true that Governor Reeder, while in . L'; V;lv ‘U. was a gentleman of gooa charnc high standing. ‘ That does not shew that • r !5 Lj.'ded to he held in the same estimation • L V* 1 * course, by which he may have justly j - i that character, we Lave before us. Net 'he present position, contrasted with his kin aQ ' s °hded or singular one, A gentle a oac ® occupied a position in this country se cond to no one then living. For thirty-six ballots he held the votes of this llouse, in even balance j f ? r the Chief Magistracy of the country. He stood | ;t K ’ uk j. c L shader with a head quite as high as ! *£ at ° v f i effe ,^? n himself. Who stood higher then ltwo n meJ? r h ° if h °f U brigh,er 'hen than these j tw ° men Twin brothers in politics, as two morn ! they a PP? ar f d ” s ing together in the dav datvn of our nations glory; hut disappointed hope and blasted ambition, caused Aaron Burr- - j like Lucifer—like the archangel, standing high in Heaven, next to the Throne itself, to fall and from his fall to rise no more. It may be so with Gov ernor Reeder. A man he may have been of high character, fair fame, and high ambition; hut his ambition has overleaped itself,” and fallen on the other side. History, I dure say, will assign him his true position. There let him rest We me to deal with the facts as they appear before us. The gentleman from Ohio, [Mr. Bingham 1 the Other day, said the legislation of the Territory of Kansas was null and void upon its face He wished no better evidence of the invalidity of the laws than that which is to he found ijpon their mspection. He read one of their acts | wtn . ch makes it penal for any individual to steal a slave, or to induce him to run a wav from his master, or to harbor such slave. Sucli a code he pronounced more infamous than that of Draco and assed whether we were bound to recognize as valid any such law as this, and some others he mentioned. Why, sir, there is a law in the gentleman’s own State, Ohio, that punishes am person who entices an apprentice to run away Whoever harbors an apprentice escaping from the tyranny, perhaps, of his master—an orphan bov, it may he—whoever gives him bread in his wanderings—as the gentleman was very pathetic I must follow him —under the Ohio laws,‘is subject to indiement and punishment. The man that would give one, thus in distress, shelter and a cun of water 1 Mr. Bingham—Did Ohio law make it a felony « Mr. Stephens—No, sir; but it makes a crinie. Ine only difference between your law and that of Kansas is as to the grade of crime and the extent i of jiunishment. Mr. Bingham—Wliat law does the gentleman refer to ? Mr. Stephens—l refer to the law in reference to apprentices, and the enticing them away. I am not complaining of the law, but only showing how the gentleman's declamation can be answered! Every community, sir, must judge fur itself in all such cases, both as to the grade of the crime and the punishment to be inflicted. But to the gentle man, in case, I would say as Scotland’s poet said to the “unco guid” of his day— “ Oh, ye who are so good yourself, So pious and so holy : Ye’ve nought to do but mark and tell Your neighbor’s faults and folly. *** * ‘ * “h e see your state with theirs compared, And shudder at the niffer ; Buy cast a moment’s fair regard, \\ hat makes the mighty differ!” It is only on the point as to the extent of the ! punishment that Hie Ohio laws, in this instance ■ differ from those of Kansas. Now, what 1 main! ! t..in is, that il any of these laws of the Territorx ; he not good laws or wise laws suited to the people 1 there, let them be changed by the people in the ' regular legislative wav. We belong, sir, to a gov ernment of law ; and it is the duty of every good citizen to sustain the law as it exists, until it is : changed and modified by the proper authority, or until he is ready for revolution. What character izes the United States and distinguishes us above all other nations more distinctively than this—! that here we have a government of laws emanating from those who are controlled and governed bv j written Constitutions ? If our laws are wrong, we ! have but to go to the polls—to the ballot-box—to j have them amended, corrected, and suited to the ! public wants. To the ballot-box, and not the cart- 1 ridge box, the people should go to settle questions i touching the character of their laws. “Inter arma i Unt leges. It, by the Kansas law regulating the ; election of a delegate on this floor, any person is ! allowed to vote who were not entitled to vote tin- I iler their organic law, and any such person in the j Lite election did so vote, and'Governor Reeder had ! gone into the contest, and hud come here showing j us that such illegal and improper votes had been polled for the sitting member, and that he had re- j ceived a majority of the legal votes of the Terri- j tory, 1 should not have hesitated in doing what 1 . could to give hint the seat. But he did no such j thing, lie and his friends set themselves up in opposition to the law, denied its force and valid!- I ty, and are now attempting to overthrow the only ; government and system or laws in that Territory to which the people can look with confidence and ' security for the protection of their lives, liberty j and property. This clamor, sir, about a majority of the people j of Kansas being opposed to General Whitfield’s ! election here will not do ; it will not bear the test; <>f notorious facts. If it were so, why had he no j , competitor at the polls? Where was’ Reeder that he did not show his relative strength with him be fore the people ? This is not the first time that | (ieneral Whitfield was a candidate before them, lie was elected in November, 1 s'4. At that time he had competition. I have before me the official 1 poll made out and entered upon the executive min- I utes by Governor Reeder himself. Here are the i entries : “ DeaevJber 4,1 s.'>4. The judges of the several ( election districts made return of the votes polled ; at the election held on the 22th day of November last, for Delegate to the House of Representatives | *f the United States, from which it appeared that j the votes in the said several districts were as fol- I lows: 3 2 g ;a g Ik j || 1 % 1 5 ! * II S I o| .

W. Whitfield is declared bv the Governor to be duly elected Delegate to the House of Representatives of the United States; and ! same day certificate of the Governor, under the seal of the Territory, issued to said J. W. Whit field of his election.” Here the number of votes appear officially and in | full, in all the election districts in that Territory, I numbering from one to seventeen. There is the poll,examine it, for .1. W. Whitfield, 2,258; for J. A. Whitfield, which was by mistake for his name, 24*; making his real, entire vote 2,506 ; and for Flen uiken, his highest opponent, only 305. Tiie whole number of votes polled were 2,733 ; so that Whit field in that contest received more than eight times the number of votes polled for Flenuiken, his highest opponent, who was the candidate of Keed ! or and his partv, and who now pretend to be a majority in the Territory. At thefastjelectionWhit field got 2,936 votes, without opposition. Mr. (,’raige—What has become of Flenuiken? Mr. Stephens —Flenuiken flunked ! The lust I heard of him he was on ius way back East, where he came front. [Great laughter and applause upon the floor and in the galleries]. lie has never been in the Territory since, as I have been informed. Mr. Speaker, 1 do not think that the investiga tion now sought is right, for the reasons I have given. lam opposed to it in toto. But if it is to be gone into, would it not be much better to send I out a commission, as is suggested bv the minority ! of the Committee of Elections? Nay, I go fur. ther. Would it not be much better to send a j committee of the House—the Committee of Elec tions themselves, if you please ? If we are to go through with this exceedingly complicated ailitir, 1 | would it not be better for tlx* committee to go to \ the hundreds and thousands of witnesses that inav have to be examined, than to bring such a ; “cloud” of them to the committee?—as the “moun tain cannot conveniently come to Mahommed, is it not better for Mahommed to go to the mountain?” Send the committee out there if a full investiga tion is what you are determined on, with the same power in the premises ; and let them make their investigations upon the “ battle grounds,” if they are to be found in the vicinage of the voters If von are going a fishing for all the tacts in real ; earnest, whv not make a complete drag of It at once ? Send" out the arms of your net far and wide, and make a thorough haul over the whole broad territory, and bring to land everything, whether fish, eel’, or serpent ? But, Mr. Speaker, in conclusion, I am against this resolution forxonother reason. lam against 1 it because it is but a part and parcel of a policy now pursued by some men in Kansas and else where, which cannot be looked upon in any other light than revolutionary in its character. Gentle men cannot he mistaken in this particular. There are men in Kansas who seetn to have resolved on rebellion. Thev were among the original enemies i of the Kansas Sill. When their leaders were beat eu in this Douse and in the Senate, and that great : measure of sectional and national equality tyas i carried against aud oyer their votes, they betook • themselves to new schemes to prevent its potent - influence in allaying agitation, and to make it the 5 I occasion of continued strife and discord. The ter . ritory was not left to settlement by the people of - i all the States equally and fairly, as the laws of cli i mate, soil, locality, production, and population ; mi j?“ t determine; but emigrants from distant points were stimulated, if not hired, to go there i with no purpose but mischief. Their main objeci i was not to become bona jbk settlers, but to control ; the first elections. In this they were beaten, as fully appears in the present silting Delegate’s first election, which 1 have shown. They were also i beaten in the first election of members to the Legis lature, as appears front the certificates before allu ded to, given to the members of that bodv bvGov Reeder himself. And now, disappointed, discou! ; tented, and disaffected at these series of defeats in | their designs and objects, they are about to betake ] themselves to the last resort of malcontents—a j trial of physical force. Arms are collected—forti | locations are built—munitions of war arc provided i —Sharpe’s rifles are procured—volunteers are in voked—aid and assistance from a distance are j looked for—money is raised, and hostility against j the existing legally constiiuted authorities is open jlv avowed. The telegraphic dispatches of this i morning announce that the government pro claimed by the Topeka convention is to go into operation at all hazards. All these movements are lawless, insubordinate, and insurrectionary. Gov. Reeder may be considered as at the head of them, the commander-in-chief of the whole of them; and his movement here can but be viewed as a part ol bis general plan of operations. Auy coun tenance he may seent to receive, therefore, at out hands, can hut favor his ulterior designs. This must be all he looks for. He cannot expect to he voted a seat on this floor. ! Now, sir, let us pause and reflect. How far, in | this business, do you intend to proceed? Are you ; going to back those deluded men in Kansas whom j Gqveinor Reeder represents here, while they stand I with arms in their hands? We see by the Presi ! dent’s proclamation, that he intends that the laws of that Territory shall be executed, as it is his duty jto do. Now, which side are you going to take, when Sharpe’s rifles and Federal artillery are i brought in array against each other in this threaten | ed conflict? Ought we to do anything calculated to inspirit or encourage any misguided portion of the people of this country to put themselves in open, hostile, armed resistance to the laws? What is this but treason, as expounded by our courts? Our history, as a united people, dates back for more than seventy years ; and no conviction for this highest crime known to society has ever, as yet, marred that history. No nation, perhaps, ever ; existed in the world so long, of which the same can be said. I feel the prouder of my country, because it is so; and long may the day he hence’before, if ever, such a ease shall occur. I trust that my eves, at least, will never see the light of that day when American soil shall be stained with a traitor’s blood. Some persons in Kansas may have, under their de lusion, gone very far; hut 1 trust that the locus penitential, in every such heart, will he found be fore the last extreme step be taken. Let us be careful, at any rate, that we do nothing here in this matter which may tend to encourage them to take that .stop. Let it he our aim and our objeci rather to “pour oil on the troubled waters.” Ours is a government of laws. Let us, then, in our action in this case, set a good example, not on ly to the people of Kansas, but to the whole coun try, by adhering strictly ourselves to the principles and precepts of the laws established for the gov ernment of all our deliberations and proceedings here. This investigation proposes to lead us into an inquiry into subjects over which I think 1 have j clearly shown we have no proper or legitimate ju- j risdiction. Let ns not, then, assume powers and prerogatives which do not belong to us, in our at- ; tempting to see if another body has not done it; j and, particularly, let us not do it for bare party I purposes, when the only effect of it may be to put ; in hazard the peace and quiet of the country. — I 1 hose, sir, are my views and opinions upon the proposition before us.
