Demoralized Democrats Tout Ohio Fiscal Record Debacle
A political broadside reviews Ohio fiscal history, contrasting Democratic mismanagement from 1866 to 1897 with Republican tax and revenue reforms under McKinley and Campbell. It cites a bankrupt treasury, state receipts rising from 1.7 million to 6.9 million, and the Nichols law expanding franchise taxation. It argues GOP measures boosted revenue via excise taxes on corporations and express firms, and previews campaign tours by Foraker, Hanna, Nash, and others.
