The Delphi Citizen and peers attack Tam many as a political menace citing New York debt and city costs under Tammany rule while praising Coolidge fiscal policy. Editorials contrast national prospects with Tammany influence and highlight endorsements from influential figures opposing prohibition.
A reprint argues Tammany is a milder, cheaper government than other cities while critiquing Republicans and presidential administrations. It defends Al Smith’s four-term governorship, blasts Harding and Coolidge, and warns Indiana to focus on national figures rather than Tammany fears.
A discussion highlights the Democratic platform's call for Philippine independence and stable government, contrasting it with Republican criticism of Lincoln quotes. It frames 1928 as a rebirth of freedom amid aggression and Toryism, praising the party's stance against dollar diplomacy.
The piece argues that Republicans taunt Democrats for leaning to progressives while noting Bryan era supports for Wilson. It praises Al Smith’s progressive record as New York governor, cites his honesty, and frames the choice as taking a chance on Smith to secure equal rights and oppose special privileges.
