Why did Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation deliberately free the Southern slaves but continue to allow slavery in the border states?

Why do you think it over two months for news of the end of the Civil War to reach Galveston, Texas?

# data[].attributes.body
Lincoln proclamtion only applied to the south as a act of seizing enemy resources and he wanted the slaves free because he did not directly control them.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it took over two months was because the country needed african slaves to fight during the war.

Emacipation Proclamation was a move that crippled the confedrates into a choice, to free slaves or more carnage. So the confedrates kept the slaves longer and kept the civil war going on.

I say it took two months to recieve news because Texas was not impacted by the civil war as much other states.

Texas didn't get the news because the Texas slave owners held that information from them.

# data[].attributes.body
In attempt to prevent a rebellion Lincoln freed all southern slaves to seize enemy resources and give the  confederate states a choice so as to get them back to the union.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the information was either stopped from reaching Texas or it was simply withheld from the community so that the slave owners could keep their slaves and continue to use them.

# data[].attributes.body
He didnt want to temp the boarder states to rebel. The southern states  were freed as a military measure . He prosmised African Americans in the south , if the United States won the war they would be free .

# data[].attributes.body
It took so long because Texas slave owners kept the the news hidden . This was to keep African Americans inslaved. Local leaders did not want to accept that slavery was abolished.

# data[].attributes.body
because he did it to indirectly free them.And not start a war

# data[].attributes.body
they had to wait til word got around town.
