War Measures and Slavery in the Union Conflict
A Frémont era editorial calls for decisive action in the Civil War, arguing that slavery and the Union cannot endure together. It outlines President Lincoln's expansion of the army, including militia calls and volunteer terms, and contemplates use of enslaved people for military labor with eventual freedom for their families. The piece warns against delaying action, cites reaction to Grant’s operations, and contrasts conciliatory rhetoric with hard policy. It also includes brief notes on related events, mobilization debates, and a sensational account of bloodhound hunts used during a clash with rebels, urging strong, uncompromising Union measures.
