Ring organs attack Geary while opposing temperance critique
Pennsylvania papers accused of partisanship attack Governor Geary and defend party lines while anti temperance forces in Ohio push to repeal the license law. A penitentiary petition signed by 766 convicts cites liquor as the root of crime and suffering, prompting questions about press bias and political influence in Harrisburg. The Evans investigation was referred to a Senate committee after a prior Tribune exposé, with 18 yes and 10 no votes.
