A Useless Fight Over State Legislature Leaders
A Columbus driven clash within the Republican party stems from efforts to organize the two state legislature branches. Senator Foraker is endorsed for reelection, while Hanna is sidelined. Boss Cox gains leverage over legislators, prompting calls to end the fight and allow lawmakers to choose officers. The Schley court verdicts and Admiral Dewey’s stance draw public support, and inventor William Marcani reports a 1800 mile wireless link between Cornwall and Newfoundland. Ath ens Candy Kitchen and local shops promote goods and confections.
