185427204New York 1854. Broadside 9" x 14 3/4". Printed in three columns. Lightly margin-spotted old folds else Very Good.<br/><br/> A rare broadside issued by Northern Democrats opposed to the Kansas- Nebraska Act which authorized the entry of slaves into that Territory and its opponents feared would nationalize slavery. The Act passed a few months earlier in 1854 would split the Democratic Party create and energize the new Republican Party and pave the way for a Republican victory in 1860. This broadside-- signed in type by Hale of New Hampshire Hiram Barney and John Jay-- is one of the earliest expressions of Northern Democratic dissent from the National Democratic Administration's Kansas policy. <br/> The broadside denounces the "perfidy" of the Act's proponents its overthrow of the Missouri Compromise its blessings upon "the curse of slavery" and its affront to white workingmen. "The true issue is before you- economically the policy of the slave power is to depreciate the value of labor by multiplying laborers to whom no wages are to be paid. Politically the slave power aims to rule the country by a slaveholding oligarchy." <br/>OCLC 28479577 1- Syracuse 79055522 2- AAS Yale. Not in LCP Sabin Blockson Dumond. unknown books
