ProloGUe On a frosty afternoon in Kansas Territory on March 27, 1855, a stern Rhode Island abolitionist named Isaac Goodnow and five other New Englanders wrestled a bulky canvas tent into shape in a tallgrass prairie at the junction of the Kansas and Big Blue rivers. The prairie was colder than Goodnow had imagined it would be in late March. But he and his party were in good spirits as they moved mattresses and supplies from the wagon into their campsite: the men had finally reached their destination after a three-week trip from Boston, covering 1,500 miles, capped by a struggle to get their overburdened covered wagon through the snowstorms and icy riv- ers of Kansas Territory.

    “Labouring for the Freedom of This Territory” Free-State Kansas Women in the 1850s by Nicole Etcheson n 1855 Harriet Goodnow refused her husband William’s pleas to join him in Kansas. The Goodnow brothers, Isaac and William, had arrived in March and settled along Wild Cat Creek, having chosen a site on the outskirts of what is now Manhattan, Kansas. IIsaac, who had been an educator in Rhode Island, became one of the founders of Manhattan and later of what would become Kansas State University. In the manner common in settling the frontier, Isaac and William came on ahead of their wives to establish a claim, build a cabin, and put in the first year’s crop. Within four months, Isaac’s wife, Ellen, followed him to Kansas. William’s wife, Harriet, refused to come to Kansas, and instead remained in New England. The tale of the Goodnow women, and that of other eastern women who moved to Kansas, relates the un- usual interplay of politics, domesticity, and western settlement in the lives of nineteenth-century women. As did many of the New Englanders who migrated to Kansas in the 1850s, the Goodnows responded to the call to save Kansas for freedom. The Kansas–Nebraska Act of 1854 had repealed the prohibition against slavery in the northern part of the Louisiana Purchase out of which Kansas Territory was formed. Kansas thus had its origins in the national struggle over slavery extension. The New England settlements there experienced first threats and then civil war with Missourians resentful of free-state intrusion onto their borders.

    Cultures of Dissent: Comparing Populism in Kansas and Texas

    CULTURES OF DISSENT: COMPARING POPULISM IN KANSAS AND TEXAS, 1854-1890 A Dissertation by MATTHEW JERRID KEYWORTH Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, David Vaught Committee Members, Carlos Blanton Charles Brooks Sarah Gatson Head of Department, David Vaught May 2014 Major Subject: History Copyright 2014 Matthew J. Keyworth ABSTRACT In 1892, People’s Party candidate James Weaver won more than a million votes and four states in his bid for the presidency. Despite finishing third, the fledgling party’s promising start worried Democrats and Republicans alike. Although Populists demonstrated strength across the South and in the West, Kansas and Texas stood at the movement’s center. Populism grew outward from areas first settled by whites in the 1850s. Farmers in both states initially struggled with new climates, crops, and soils, and they turned to neighbors for help in facing challenges great and small. The culture of mutual aid that developed enabled survival while forging a sense of community—and responsibility for the common weal—that endured through century’s end. In addition to impediments erected by Mother Nature, early homesteaders faced the obstacle of settling in contested places. Anxieties surrounding Bleeding Kansas ensnared even those who cared little about slavery, just as fear of “Indian depredations” consumed Texans. In both circumstances many believed that federal authorities at best ignored—and at worst added to—their problems. Kansans and Texans walked divergent paths following the Civil War.

    The Great Principle of Self-Government

    The Great Principle of Self-Government Popular Sovereignty and Bleeding Kansas by Nicole Etcheson Now, my friends, if we will only act conscientiously and rigidly upon this great principle of pop- ular sovereignty, which guaranties to each State and Territory the right to do as it pleases on all things, local and domestic, instead of Congress interfering, we will continue at peace one with an- other. Under that principle we have become, from a feeble nation, the most powerful on the face of the earth, and if we only adhere to that principle, we can go forward increasing in territory, in power, in strength and in glory until the Republic of America shall be the North Star that shall guide the friends of freedom throughout the civilized world. And why can we not adhere to the great principle of self-government, upon which our institutions were originally based? —Senator Stephen A. Douglas, 1858.1 ngaged in a struggle to salvage his political career, Stephen A. Douglas spoke these words to his constituents in Ottawa, Illinois, during his famous debates with Abraham Lincoln. In Douglas’s view, popular sovereignty was nothing less than the “great prin- ciple of self-government” itself. He had equated the two before and would do so again. EPopular sovereignty, as one historian has pointed out, “rested on a historic, enduring, and deeply held belief in the capacity of the American people not only to govern themselves but to do what Nicole Etcheson is an associate professor of history at the University of Texas–El Paso. Her research has examined Bleeding Kansas, the various factions of the antislavery and proslavery movements, and the subject of popular sovereignty.
