Winnipeg Sketch Describes Busy Metropolis and Diverse Inhabitants
Henry Van Dyke Jr. depicts Winnipeg as a bustling hub eight years after its Hudson Bay Company fort origins. A broad main street, mills, spired Knox Church, and red river carts crowd the scene. Immigrants and travelers mingle, mud grips wagons, and the city’s rapid growth earns it the nickname Bleeder's Paradise.

Tilden and Democrats in the 1870s political melee
A collage of editorial excerpts from Chicago and Wisconsin papers outlines Democratic dissension over Tilden’s candidacy, with critics arguing his veto on southern strategy and the party’s grip on power. It notes Republican fears and a costly Voorhees inquiry drawing national scrutiny.
Two New York Conventions Split Democrats in 1880 Race
The Democratic State Conventions at Syracuse and a parallel meeting in New York split the party, unit rules and two thirds rule shaping the Cincinnati delegation. The Tilden faction gains control of seven ty votes with enforceable seating, while Kellys power in New York City threatens regulars. A letter by W S King defends reform and targets Donnelly in a bribery dispute, signaling fierce posturing ahead of the national contest.

Exodus committee probe ends in mockery and partisan ash
The piece condemns Dan Voorhees and his investigation into the North Carolina to Indiana exodus as a political stunt to swing votes. It portrays witnesses as biased, details the small number of moving Blacks, and attacks opposition leaders Wallace and Randall over a staged Harrisburg convention amid drunken disorder and tempers.
