Democrats at odds over Butler as ticket choice
The piece argues that Gen. Butler cannot secure the Greenback nomination without pledging to run, and even with a pledge could win only a portion of Massachusetts and other states. Albert Palmer may present Butler at the Democratic convention, but the final nominee remains to be decided by the convention, with hopes for a strong, unifying Democrat.
