Cumback and the Visitor clash over Americanism in Indiana
The letter from Mr. Cumback responding to accusations in the Independent is analyzed, with focus on opposing views between him and the Visitor editor. The piece defends Cumback's American platform, cites 1854 cooperation on the Missouri Compromise restoration, and denounces alleged pro slavery leanings by the Visitor. It ends with criticism of the Visitor and notes on Louisiana voting irregularities and local political maneuvers.
