TILDEN WAR RECORDS AND THE PATRIOTISM QUESTION
A letter to the Argus argues that Samuel J. Tilden showed disloyalty during the Civil War era by not signing a Union square call and by not supporting major wartime fundraising. It cites Dix and various fund drives, noting Tilden’s absence from Sanitary Fairs and defense funds, and accuses him of evading taxes and aiding mining interests. The piece casts doubt on his patriotism and fitness for the presidency.

Tilden's Southern strength as a campaign factor
The article argues that Mr. Tilden's support for the South during the Civil War era creates a Northern weakness. It cites ex-Governor Underwood recalling Tilden's treasonous remarks about Army troops and claims over half a million Democrats fought in the war. It asserts New York's large Democratic war contribution and predicts repudiation of Tilden by honest Democrats at the polls.
