All-Sorts Commentary Highlights Political Sparks
A collection of brief notes covers Bright opposing the Ashantee war and favoring arbitration, Conkling’s salary plan drawing mixed reactions, Rodman seeking a teller role, and Judge forming a minstrel group while pursuing future business. It notes Col. Geo H. Pierce’s $35,000 life insurance, Newport real estate downturns, and rumors of Donaldson rising in fashion circles. Jefferson may debut in a new play as the old one ends. Reavis moves to lecture circuit for capital, and Gladstone’s setbacks provoke jabs at a longer whip.
