The answer is: slave ownership in territories could be decided by popular sovereignty.

Stephen Arnold Douglas was an American politician and lawyer from Illinois. He was the Democratic Party nominee for president in the 1860 election, but the Republican candidate Abraham Lincoln defeated him. In the 1850s, Douglas was one of the main advocates of popular sovereignty, which held that each territory should be allowed to determine whether to permit slavery within its borders
