Cause and chasm in politics in 1876 Washington
Special correspondence from Washington contrasts Democratic claims of honesty with alleged defalcations by a former Secretary. The piece urges a public reckoning before the November election, likening it to Curtius in Rome, and cites Republicans, traitors, and calls for patriotic sacrifice to save the nation. It notes events in New Hampshire, the House and Senate, and various political and social happenings across states.
