Dear Delinquents and the Great Be yond notice and a tariff reform tone

It cites a 1888 Republican National Convention in Chicago on June 19, discusses tariff reform, mentions Henry’s reselection as State Printer, and notes a rise in illiteracy in Louisiana. It references Chatham the slayer, the Blair bill, and local Mississippi figures like V M Bass and Pp Tolt, ending with a partisan note from the Wesson Argosy.
