The Folly of Sectionalism in 1888 Politics
An opinion piece arguing against labeling the 1888 contest as sectional. It weighs Northern and Southern vote shares, estimates population growth, and questions whether Cleveland or Blaine reflect genuine national unity. It notes how sectional framing could mislead voters and hints at political strategy surrounding the "bloody shirt" rhetoric. The piece ends by critiquing disunion rhetoric tied to Cleveland’s administration and references a quoted divorce case.

Sale of a Railroad By Jones at $15000 Bid
The sale of the Cleveland, Phos and St Louis Narrow Gauge railway assets occurred in the United States Courtroom with A W Jones of Youngstown making the opening bid of 15000 dollars the minimum valid bid. Erie Car Trust Company representatives noted two engines and several cars belonged to the firm but were not part of the sale. Bondholders effectively financed the purchase with Major Goodspeed as master commissioner and witnesses including James Callery and Joseph Boehner present. The road may be improved and possibly extended but no definite plans announced. A Tom Lawson letter to the Toledo Fest denies that pecceiie are sane at end. miners may return if the onerous contract is withdrawn. Republican Urbans nominate Gen Kennedy for Governor.
