Augusta speech marks sectional attack from a Northern Republican
The post election address at Mr. Paul Bisine’s Augusta home critiques Blaine’s stance on the South and Negroes, framing it as the strongest Northern Republican sectional argument yet. It contrasts Blaine’s July acceptance with the Augusta remarks and warns voters to note inconsistent positions. The piece also notes editorials from nearby papers reacting to Cleveland's defeat and reports a circulating petition to impeach District Attorney Miller, with cautious commentary on vagueness.
