Pamphlet, “1791-1865 Kansas affairs in the Senate. Minority report of the Senate committee on territories. Made March 12, 1856, by Judge Collamer, of Vermont,†16pp, scattered foxing. Published by Buell & Blanchard. It focused on the issue of slavery in the Kansas Territory and criticized the actions of the pro-slavery forces there. It argued that the pro-slavery forces had manipulated the election process and prevented free-state settlers from having a fair voice. It also condemned the violence that had erupted in the territory, including the sacking of the anti-slavery town of Lawrence. In part “"A Territory of our Government is now convulsed with violence and discord, and the whole family of our nation is in a state of excitement and anxiety. The national executive power is put in motion, the army in requisition, and Congress is invoked for interference. In this case, as in all others of difficulty, it becomes necessary to inquire what is the true cause of existing trouble, in order to apply effectual cure."
