Edward Harrigan's new comedy The Mulligan Letters is previewed amid a broad political scene. Notable names include Blaine Logan Cleveland and President Arthur, with a Queens County treasurer deficit and a rising public discourse on tariffs and railroad regulation across states.
The Republican slate faces mass defections in Wisconsin as Blaine and Logan draw criticism from German Americans and party newspapers. Der Herald shifts stance, signaling possible support for a Democratic platform if Cleveland or Bayard are nominated, while Dr Senner asserts German Republicans’ broad opposition remains.
In Saratoga Democrats express strong belief Cleveland will win the nomination. The outlook centers on first ballots at Chicago with New York’s delegation likely to back him. A New York Republican editor claims Cleveland already commands two thirds of the delegation despite contrary newspaper chatter.
A long fragment describes Joseph Ewing McDonald born 1819 in Bitlet Ohio with Scottish Huguenot ancestry and a legal career in Indiana and Indiana politics. It then covers John Kelly of New York politics, Tammany leadership, and a mix of humorous anecdotes, odd notices, and social commentary from Ohio and New York.
