He proposed to give something to each side, and he urged that it was necessary for each to give up something that it The com- wished if the good of the whole country was to be promise of secured. His plan was for the South to give up its con- 1850 tention about California, allowi...ng it to come into the union as a free state, and for the South to consent to exclude the slave trade from the District of Columbia.
