Political dodge and party brinkmanship in 1890s era
A regional column denounces attempts by pension attorneys to leverage the Grand Army of the Republic encampment in Washington for political gain. It attacks Raum, Harrison, and the Republican force bill while praising Democratic aims and warning Southern voters about third party risks. The piece cites Weaver and Blaine history, reflects on monetary policy, and cautions against partisan manipulation at the polls.
