The American Novel and Its Diminishing Promise

Indiana Hoosier Politicking Foresees McDonald Bid

Indiana politics in 1884 centers on presidential prospects with Joseph E. McDonald seen as strongest Democrat contender. Republicans favor Walter Q. Gresham while Benjamin Harrison and others draw support. Indiana’s electoral votes, factional divides over prohibition, and statewide jockeying frame the battle as candidates tour and county sentiment shifts.
