Mr. CLARK, of Missouri. I just want to say that the history of the times will show that it was, if men went into Kansas from Missouri for unlawful purposes, they were instigated to go there by the persons who were selected and sent out by the emigrant aid societies of New England. [Laughter on the Republican side. ] Mr. THAYER. The gentleman from Kan-- sas yields to me to reply to the remark of the gentleman from Missouri [Mr. CLARK] in rela- tion to the New England Emigrant Aid Com- pany. On s...everal occasions I have sought the floor, when charges have been made here against that company, for the purpose of show- ing what it was, and how it acted. I have, in one speech made in this hall, defined its opera- tions ; I have shown it to be simply a business organization, conducted on business principles, for 5 the purpose of making investments in the Territory of Kansas. They never paid any one's expenses to that Territory; they never ex- pended one dollar in the purchase of arms for any of the people who went to that Territory ; they never made any contributions of money in the shape of gifts at any time ; they had in view simply and always legitimate business pur- poses ; and if they failed to conduct their oper- ations upon legitimate business principles, they were amenable to the courts of justice when- ever they violated the rules that govern busi- ness corporations ; but that has never been charged ; no suit has ever been brought against them.
