Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address to the People of Massachusetts The undersigned, members of the Senate, and House of Representatives, of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, desire to address you on a subject of great public concern. They wish to ask your attention to certain transactions, which have passed under their notice, and which demand your serious consideration. It is known to you, that, at the election of State officers in November last, the Free Soil and Democratic parties were separate political organizations, having different candidates for Governor, and publicly professing very different political principles. You sent to the Legislature members of each of these political parties, who had theretofore held the distinctive political principles of each, and who were elected because they were known to hold those principles. On the first day of January, the Legislature assembled, and its members, including the persons above referred to, were sworn. On the evening of that day, the Democratic members of the Legislature came together in caucus, at a room in the State House in Boston, and at the same time, and in another room in the same building, the Free Soil members of the Legislature also met in a distinct caucus. Each of these bodies on that evening appointed a committee, to meet and confer in regard to all the offices to be filled by the Legislature. These committees met for this conference on the evening of January the second, and the Free Soil committee "proposed to concede the Governor to the Democrats, 07 i condition that the United States Senator for six years should be conceded to the Free Soilers."
