Governor Mount Calls Special Session to Let Soldiers Vote
In 1898 the governor urges a special session to grant soldiers in the field the right to vote, expediting patriotic duty. Alexandren Hess, clerk of the supreme court, was in the city canvassing for renomination. A pugilistic carnival at Resuvinnr’s race course drew crowds, with a planned downtown sequel. Ed Bennett, linked to earlier bouts with Jack Dougherty, resurfaced after Dougherty’s arrest.
