Westward views temper Cleveland tour critique
A long critical column questions President Cleveland's three week Western tour. It argues his limited lifetime in law and politics hinder broader understanding of the Great West. It criticizes the Post’s praise as overblown and notes loyalty to the Democratic party amid Dakota rights and local patronage debates. The piece also mentions Kate Castleton at Albaugh's Opera House and the Lamar Sparks feud. It closes with a brief medical ad for Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
