The notorious 1868 Tilden circular and its 1875 Albany version claimed to fix elections by telegrams to Tweed, tallying 20,000 dubious votes. The piece argues Tilden and Tweed used insiders to push a single percentage point change, costing reform and defining a dark chapter in New York politics.

The Raid of the Solid South and Its Political Threat
The piece argues the core issue is whether the Southern Confederacy will control the U S government. It condemns the solid South for a Democratic effort seen as a raid on the national government, driven by race and party power rather than finance, urging that this threat must fail.
