You are divided on new propositions and plans, but you are unanimous in rejecting and denouncing the old policy of the 72 LINCOLN fathers. Some of you" are for reviving the foreign slave- trade;** some for a Congressional slave code for the Terri- tories;** some for Congress forbidding the Territories to pro- hibit slavery within their limits;" some for maintaining slavery in the Territories through the judiciary;** some for the "gur-reat pur-rinciple" that "if one man would enslave another, no... third man should object," fantastically called "popular sovereignty";" but never a man among you is in favor of Federal prohibition of slavery in Federal Territories, according to the practice of "our fathers who framed the government under which we live." Not one of all your vari- ous plans can show a precedent or an advocate in the century within which our government originated. Consider, then, whether your claim of conservatism for yourselves, and your charge of destructiveness against us, are based on the most clear and stable foundations.
