Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Chapter in the Life of Charles Robinson, the First Governor of Kansas As the influence of the last named was perhaps greater in the founding and building Of the State Of Kansas than that of any other single individual of those who dwelt within its borders, he is made the central figure in the bit Of history presented in this paper.

The Kansas conflict is one of the most remarkable facts of American history, from the Revolutionary War to the present time. The great parties of the nation had failed to agree concerning political sovereignty and the great domestic institution -- slavery. The nation was rapidly dividing into two great parties, each occupying separate sections of national territory and having different industrial interests. Opinions regarding legislation and justice were widely divergent in the two sections, and men were wedded to sectional interests rather than to national honor. Even from the adoption of the Federal Constitution in 1789 there had hung a great cloud over the American Republic as a menace to free institutions. Men who boasted of freedom and liberty and waxed eloquent over the blessings of free institutions, held a large number of human beings in servitude. The difficulty of regulating domestic institutions by general laws was soon evident, involving as it did the relation of Federal to State government. In the early period of national life men were too busy with the affairs pertaining to the development of the nation to pay much attention to the question of slavery. But there came a time when agitation, slight and almost unnoticed at first, finally stirred widespread enthusiasm for the cause of the enslaved. A little cloud no larger than a man's hand appeared above the horizon, and gradually spread over the sky the black and threatening appearances of war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Robinson and the Kansas Epoch Slavery was originally a merciful institution, sug gested by the earlier promptings of humanity. In stead of giving up prisoners of war to indiscriminate slaughter, it gradually became the practice of victors to make slaves of them, and there were no exceptions to the rule because of race, color or social conditions. Our Pilgrim Fathers made slaves of Indians. They made a slave of the son of the Indian King Philip, and sold him in the Barbadoes, where he died under the lash of the slave-driver. White men were sold intoslavery in this country for debt. They were called redemptioners. Lord Altham, of Ireland, was thus sold at Philadelphia in 1728, and during twelve years he was bought and sold by different masters in Lan caster County of that State. It is only a little more than a hundred years since the corsairs of the Bar bary States raided the seas, and captured hundreds of American sailors, whom they sold into slavery.
