Cornwell,. Chester, 8 'The Story of Our States I By JONATHAN BRAEE Coronado, the * Spanish9 - pbrer, Is re pted to have K a nsas In nearly one hundred and seventy five years later, when the French in~ Louisiana sent out an expedition to Investigate the re mote portions of what was then their territory. Most of the pres Ient State of Ksnawasa pat of the Louisiana Purchase and so passed from French hands to the United States in 1808. A small additional part was later added In 1850, being ceded by Texas. The Lewis and Clark. party traversed this region in 1804, and Lieutenant Plke' sied through Kanas two yesarsr.. Kanas history really becomes interesting In the middle of the century, when the slavery agita tion gave it the name of "Bleed ing Kanas." It had been an un organized territor since 1821, at which time It adbeen corn sldered a portion of the Terri tory of Missouri. According to the Missouri Copromise, If Kansas became a state It could not be a slavery state. The op. position of the South was so strong the Kansas-Nebraka bill was passed in~ 1854, ming this vital question optional with the Inhabitants in each proposed state. With this law in force, the two factions actively started colonizing Kanas. Immigrants from the slave states of Arkan sas and Missouri Immediately founded Leavenworth. The Mas sachusetts Emigrant Aid socd ety sent out anti-slavery settiers, who founded Lawrence, Topeka and other towns. Conflict be tween these two parties broke out at once, and It was only put down by the intervention of fed- j Seral troops. The Northern set- ~ tiers came in such numbers that* they soon were in the majo'rity and in 1861 an anti-slayery con stitution was adopted, so Kansas was admitted to the Union In that year. The political dispute over Kan sas was the cause of the forma- - tion of the present Republican party. ((c@by McClare Newaper SradIomta.)
