Summary
Governor Dorr encloses a proclamation and general order (see GLC05757.04 and GLC05757.05) to be published without delay in the Daily Express, the Herald, or some other paper. Rejects the insinuation in an editorial in the Express that he might be persuaded to abandon the People's Constitution. Discusses suffrage, comments I know of no way to abrogate it, except by a majority of the whole People, and asks: Has the Express abandoned the cause of the People. Millard, Low, & Miller published the Daily Express. Dorr, then an illegitimate governor, led the Dorr Rebellion over suffrage rights in Rhode Island.
