Excerpt from Speech of the Hon. B. F. Wade, of Ohio, on the Nebraska and Kansas Bills: Senate of the United States, March 3, 1854 I have said, Mr. President, that the question under consideration was important. I doubt much whether, in the history of the world, there has ever been an occasion where the same number of men as com pose this Senate had it in their power to confer a more enduring benefit Or in ict a more lasting injury on mankind than now devolves on us. Untold millions, to the remotest time, shall arise, as generation after generation shall pass away, and bless our memories for the inestimable boon of liberty; or, born to ignorance, degradation, and slavery, they shall curse and scoff at our names, who had the power to bless, but chose to curse. Such considerations Oppress the mind with a painful sense of responsibility. The power of the Roman Senate, in the height of her glory, was not so great as this. She could dispose of conquered nations, but had not the shaping and moulding of the institutions of a nation in its infancy such a duty belongs to America alone. The political relation that the people of these Territories are to sustain to us, as members of this great Republic, invests the subject with additional importance. But, Mr. President, the advocates of this bill, in order to sustain it upon principle, have rightly judged that the Declaration of Independence must also be superseded and rendered inoperative. I had supposed that the great principles touching the rights of human nature set forth in that immortal instrument were universally acknowledged in this country. Judge of my surprise when I heard them assailed, denounced, and repudiated, in the Senate of the United States, as self-evident false hoods. Such doctrines grated harshly on my ear. This great Decla ration cost our forefathers too dear thus lightly to be thrown away by their children. Was it not to vindicate these great truths, in the face of British power, that the fathers of the Republic pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor? Ah, sir, without the in uence of those soul-inspiring principles it would have been impossible for the patriots Of that day to have achieved our independence. Such princi ples were, in their estimation, worth the sacrifice of all else on earth, even life itself. But it has been left to modern Democracy to discover that these principles were all false, and consequently they who fought for them either hypocrites or wild enthusiasts - not much better than Abolitionists. Indeed, I understand that all who support this bill deny the doctrines of the great declaration; and why should they not? They cannot maintain the principles of the declaration and this bill for the extension of Slavery. You cannot serve God and mammon.

One hundred and fifty years after Kansas was admitted to the Union, we still find ourselves fascinated by the specter of "Bleeding Kansas" and the violence that preceded the American Civil War by five years. Although ample attention has been devoted to understanding why territorial violence broke out in Kansas in 1856, of equal concern but less illuminated is the question of why government, both local and national, allowed the violence to continue unstanched for so long. This question is fundamentally about governance-its existence, exercise, limits, and continuance-and its study has ramifications for understanding both Kansas events and why the American experiment in government failed in 1861. In addition, the book also sheds light on the nature of democracy, the challenges of implanting it in distant environs, the necessity of cooperation at the various levels of government, and the value of strong leadership. To Govern the Devil in Hell uses the prism of governance to investigate what went wrong in territorial Kansas. From the first elections in late 1854 and early 1855, local government was tarnished with cries of illegitimacy that territorial officials could not ameliorate. Soon after, a shadow government was created which further impeded local management of territorial challenges. Ultimately, this book addresses why Presidents Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan failed to act, what hindered Congress from stepping into the void, and why and how the lack of effective governance harmed Kansas and later the United States.
