1627 - L. Jan. 1; ed: 2/1 - Democratic politicians and New York newspapers
support the establishment of an independent nation in the South.
We quote from John Stuart Mill's article in FRASER'S magazine for
December, 1859, in order to refute them. Mill said: "The sacred duties
which civilized nations owe to the independence and nationality of each
other are not binding toward those to whom nationality is a certain evil
or a questionable good." . . . -
(LEADER) "A nationality has no right to build a government upon a
'corner stone' of slavery. Subjugation of the South by our armies is
justified." (7)
