The Wisconsin German-American calls Douglas the destroyer of the Missouri Compromise, who never uttered "a word of reproach or condemnation against the Border Ruffians of Missouri."
Douglas has "done more than any other man in perpetuating" slavery. This piece is one of the Tribune Tracts supporting the election of Lincoln. Schurz's support was important in securing German immigrants to the Republican Party.
