Farnsworth. Then you would. Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois. You have my answer. Did the gentleman, when he voted for the Crittenden-Montgomery meas- ure, vote for it as a cheat, or in good faith ? Mr. Farnsworth. When I voted for the Crittenden-Montgom- ery amendment, I voted for it knowing that the people of Kansas would make a free-State constitution. I was as well satisfied of it as I would be should I refer a matter to the arbitration of three persons, two of whom were committed to me, that they ...would find in my favor. Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois. And yet, as a Representative of one of the proudest northwestern States, my colleague says he took a constitution, already dripping with corruption and fraud, cov- ered with slavery of the deepest hue, and held it out to the people, and said: if you take it, you can come into the Union; and now he says he did not mean to do what he did do. He did not mean to make it a slave State ; but he told the people they might make it a slave State ; and, as they might decide, he would be content.
