<p>Chicago March 24 / 62.
</p><p>My Dear Govr.
</p><p>You need have no fears as to the course which the Tribune will pursue in regard to the constitution.
</p><p>I had an interview of three hours with Medill this morning. He will oppose the [illegible] constitution in the columns of the Tribune & otherwise by every means in his power.
</p><p>I have also conversed with several leading Republicans, & find that there is a stern & fixed determination that the constitution must be defeated. No effort will
</p>
<hr />
<p>be spared in this city to accomplish this result.
</p><p>Plans have already been devised to combine all the railroad interest against it.
</p><p>It is also proposed to subsidize the [entire?] democratic Press of this city, & to some extent, that of the state.
</p><p>Medill & others think that there is some prospect that the Times & Post may be brought into active opposition by concentrating the railroad influence & bringing it to bear upon them.
</p><p>In short, every thing looks fair in this city at the present moment. If the vote could be taken tomorrow it would be almost solid against
</p>
<hr />
<p>the iniquity.
</p><p>Allow me the liberty of suggesting that if you design to be a candidate for senator it would be decidedly advisable to procure pledges from at least a majority of Rep. members before the session is called.
</p><p>If you await their arrival in Springfield before securing their support adverse influences will be brought to bear upon the [illegible] the moment the session is called until the election takes place.
</p><p>Now they are probably unpledged & can be much more easily influenced in your favor than at any other period.
</p><p>I have not felt at liberty
</p>
<hr />
<p>to state to any one that you was a candidate, although I have stated it as my opinion that you would not object.
</p><p>Mr Medill will probably visit you in a few days. I requested him to do so.
</p><p>By all means secure his influence, if within the bounds of possibility
</p><p>An open advocacy of your claims by the Tribune would influence many members in this part of the State.
</p><p>I felt of Medill cautiously but found I was tracking on dangerous ground & backed out without committing
</p>
<hr />
<p>myself. Medill approves of the plan of calling the Legislature together & bringing back Jayne, Bester et al. He thinks that Lincoln will certainly cooperate in the movement & will reappoint them, or give them other positions, after the work is done.
</p><p>The difficulty suggested by Mr Hatch, that the military officers could not, under a rule of the War department, be reappointed, can be obviated by a change or rescission of of the rule.
</p><p>If there are any members in this part of the state, particularly in 1st & 2d Dist's
</p>
<hr />
<p>that you desire me to see in relation to the senatorship please advise me, & mention particularly the points which should be made, or in other words the strings to pull, & I will endeavor to make some business in this vicinity & casually call & see them.
</p><p>Please give my kind regards to the state officers
</p><p>Very truly yours
</p><p>E. Peyn Ferry
</p><p>P.S. The general opinion here is that the Constitution will be defeated.

<p>Chicago March 24 / 62.
</p><p>My Dear Govr.
</p><p>You need have no fears as to the course which the Tribune will pursue in regard to the constitution.
</p><p>I had an interview of three hours with Medill this morning. He will oppose the [illegible] constitution in the columns of the Tribune & otherwise by every means in his power.
</p><p>I have also conversed with several leading Republicans, & find that there is a stern & fixed determination that the constitution must be defeated. No effort will
</p>
<hr />
<p>be spared in this city to accomplish this result.
</p><p>Plans have already been devised to combine all the railroad interest against it.
</p><p>It is also proposed to subsidize the [entire?] democratic Press of this city, & to some extent, that of the state.
</p><p>Medill & others think that there is some prospect that the Times & Post may be brought into active opposition by concentrating the railroad influence & bringing it to bear upon them.
</p><p>In short, every thing looks fair in this city at the present moment. If the vote could be taken tomorrow it would be almost solid against
</p>
<hr />
<p>the iniquity.
</p><p>Allow me the liberty of suggesting that if you design to be a candidate for senator it would be decidedly advisable to procure pledges from at least a majority of Rep. members before the session is called.
</p><p>If you await their arrival in Springfield before securing their support adverse influences will be brought to bear upon the [illegible] the moment the session is called until the election takes place.
</p><p>Now they are probably unpledged & can be much more easily influenced in your favor than at any other period.
</p><p>I have not felt at liberty
</p>
<hr />
<p>to state to any one that you was a candidate, although I have stated it as my opinion that you would not object.
</p><p>Mr Medill will probably visit you in a few days. I requested him to do so.
</p><p>By all means secure his influence, if within the bounds of possibility
</p><p>An open advocacy of your claims by the Tribune would influence many members in this part of the State.
</p><p>I felt of Medill cautiously but found I was tracking on dangerous ground & backed out without committing
</p>
<hr />
<p>myself. Medill approves of the plan of calling the Legislature together & bringing back Jayne, Bester et al. He thinks that Lincoln will certainly cooperate in the movement & will reappoint them, or give them other positions, after the work is done.
</p><p>The difficulty suggested by Mr Hatch, that the military officers could not, under a rule of the War department, be reappointed, can be obviated by a change or rescission of of the rule.
</p><p>If there are any members in this part of the state, particularly in 1st & 2d Dist's
</p>
<hr />
<p>that you desire me to see in relation to the senatorship please advise me, & mention particularly the points which should be made, or in other words the strings to pull, & I will endeavor to make some business in this vicinity & casually call & see them.
</p><p>Please give my kind regards to the state officers
</p><p>Very truly yours
</p><p>E. Peyn Ferry
</p><p>P.S. The general opinion here is that the Constitution will be defeated.
