Henry Ward Hunt era debate and political scorn
Washington dispatch recounts Blaine's Senate speech reverberating in Britain over Delfasse as third arbitrator in the Halifax Fisheries Commission, and notes Fish's bid for collaboration with Thornton. It surveys American generosity in proposing multiple candidates, critiques British objections, and hints at potential $5.5 million award implications. It also touches on Louisiana politics, district governance, and local incidents across Ohio and surrounding regions.
