Hill critics reveal Senate obstruction tactics in last Congress
Willia D. Hilt of Ohio chaired the committee on territories last Congress and reportedly avoided submitting Dakota and Washington admission bills. Hilt retired March 4. Springer of Illinois may succeed as chairman, with Carlisle relying on similar tactics. The Paulding Gazette cites this as a likely outcome for the party’s control in 1888. The New York Mail and Express argues protectionist, anti anarchist platforms will drive the Repeesen party back to national power.
