it got passed for the reason that missouri entered the union as part of the missouri compromise. so missouri enacted the statute because it thought of it as a sorting out. they had come into the union as a slave state. they felt that they needed to maintain the balance and sort out the individuals who came to missouri. there was no abolitionist in evidence. preaching abolition was illegal. it was criminal during the period of these lawsuits. >> following the lawsuits today is complicated enough. i am curious what you found in regards to people becoming educated. it would be very difficult to have faith in somebody who said they would lead you through a lawsuit. can you talk about how they found out? or word-of-mouth? how they found out they could find freedom through a lawsuit. dr. vandervelde: yes, it was through networks in a free black community. there was no one who was leading the charge. each of these individuals stepped forward. that was surprising to me. i thought i would see a movement. i did not see a movement. my understanding is that through word-of-mouth, the fact th

welcome to hamilton missouri population, 1800. until now hamilton has best been known for being the birth place of jcpenney but today, this kri which is an hour away from kansas city is known for something different. quilting. it's been dubbed the disneyland of quilting. people have come from all over the world from as far away as australia, but once they get here, turns out there's not much else for them to do so missouri star has broadened their vision. now they're working with local partners to turn this sleepy town into a true destination. how many of these buildings do you own? >> right downtown hamilton we have 12. >> you're really -- you're taking over this town? >> we're taking advantage of people not using them and letting them be run down and fall apart and putting together something new and exciting. >> some of them, i see, you have the sewing retreat for quilters. >> yes. >> you have sew seasonal over there. >> well, we're focused on quilting. we want to have most quilt shops than any town in the world. >> what do you

conversely, i think there was -- i think there were 100,000 or so slaves in the state of missouri. most people about people in missouri would come into eastern kansas, settled the area, set up a government, and write the constitution and coming to kansas as a slave state. and kansas would send two southern senators to washington and keep equilibrium in the u.s. senate. that is what most people felt. they assumed wrongly. the kansas-nebraska act was a call to arms for abolitionists. particularly, those in the east new england states. northern abolitionists were outraged by the kansas-nebraska act. they hated slavery abolitionists did, but they could live with it as long as it state the load 36/30. now slavery conceivably spread all the way to the pacific ocean. so armed and heavily financed groups of abolitionists backed by new england concerns and eight societies, boston connecticut, rhode island, maine, ohio, new york they reported anti-slave -- -- anti-slavery abolitionist to stop kansas from becoming a slave state. missouri saw these yankees pointing to kansas territory they kne

so the missouri -- the kansas/missouri act, or the kansas/nebraska act was seen as a pro-southern act, it was viewed as a pro-slavery act. so when northerners decided that if popular sovereignty will decide the fate of kansas we're going to send people to settle, that was viewed as an act of war by many missourians who had just assumed this would all be theirs. it's or not, it is so important to note that before there is a slavery issue in kansas, there is economic opportunity. nobody would have cared, nobody would have come had there not been economic opportunity in kansas. and we look at the wide open space, of course we forget that there are actually american indians living here at the time and making use of that space but to easterners this just looked like wide open, unused country. the railroads the railroads are everything in the 19th century. the very night that topeka is founded, december 5 1854, the missouri senator thomas hart benton is standing in maryland making a speech about the rich land of kansas and how the railroad is going to cut through that and open it up for eve

conversely, there were 100,000 or so slaves in the state of missouri. missourians would come into eastern kansas and settle, set up a government, write a constitution, and kansas would come in as a slave state. they would send two southern senators to washington and you would keep an equilibrium in the u.s. senate. that is what people thought. they assumed wrongly. the kansas-nebraska act particularly those in the east when states, northern abolitionists were outraged by the kansas-nebraska act. they hated slavery, but they could live with it as long as it stayed below 36-30. now it could spread all the way west to the pacific ocean. armed and heavily financed groups of abolitionists backed by new england concerns boston, connecticut, rhode island, maine, ohio, new york, they poured in anti-slavery men and women to stop kansas from becoming a slave state. missourians saw these yankees pouring into kansas territory. they knew they were going to have a fight on their hands. the mixture of abolitionists and proslavery mingling together in kansas territory,

so virginia settled kentucky, settled missouri. and with that settlement with the mores and the culture and all the values. you know that saying from north to south. it was assumed and that missouri would settle kansas, making it a slave state. so the kansas missouri act, or the kansas-nebraska act was seen as a pro-southern act. it was viewed as a proslavery act. so when northerners decided that if popular sovereignty will decide the fate of kansas and we'll send people to settle. that was viewed as an act of war by many missourians. they just assumed this would all be theirs. it's important, it is so important to note that before there is a slavery issue in kansas, there is economic opportunity. nobody would have cared, nobody would have come had it not been economic opportunity in kansas. and we look at the wide open space of course we forget that there's actually american indians living at the time and making use of that space, but the easterners, is just looked like wide open, unused country. the railroads the railroads are ev

one of the things missourians do is they bring all sorts of militias from missouri into kansas. they identify lawrence as a community settled by new england antislavery people. so they really are going to drive the people out. so, an army literally comes into existence from all the militia units that are coming in from missouri. the war in december of 1855 is the result. i think what is interesting about the effort to eradicate lawrence and to drive all the antislavery people out of the territory for this conflict, right outside of warrants in december of 1855, is that the antislavery people, likewise mobilize. for instance, the militia here in topeka, it goes to lawrence to defend lawrence. and john brown and his family come up to lawrence to help defend lawrence. you have all of these people coming together at lawrence in the proslavery people reinforce one another and the antislavery people, that new network is created as a result of the various antislavery people coming together at lawrence. and john meets john brown and they become associates in the whole resistance by two

i oversee government reimbursement programs in bolivar, missouri and osage beach missouri. 50 rural hospitals have closed since january 2010. rural hospital closure means more than just the loss of access to health care for a community. as a rural hospital is frequently the largest employer in town, its closure represents an economic blow as well. my written testimony provides several examples of what is working in rural hospitals, including quality health care at a reasonable price to the medicare program, and programs like the medical home program which improves the health in our communities. i want to focus my oral comments, though, on four specific challenges rural hospitals face. first, patient volumes are lower at rural hospitals, and also fluctuate significantly on a day-to-day basis, making it difficult to manage staffing levels. my written testimony has a graph on page three that shows the daily census at lake regional for the month of january showing significant daily fluctuations, including a high census of 103 patients on january 15th and a low of 66 patients on january 25th. a si
