Morton Named as Gresham’s Strongest NY Ticket Mate
The article argues Levi P. Morton is the best choice to join Judge Gresham if nominated, noting Morton’s party popularity and that he carries electoral weight due to his wealth. It criticizes Warner Miller as weak and lacking support in New York, while praising Depew as a potential strong companion. It also covers state politics, local lawlessness, and regional issues, including Michigan liquor laws and Indianapolis growth.

Rich syndicate to tunnel Detroit river and other notes
A sprawling batch of 19th century items notes a rich syndicate planning to tunnel the Detroit river, printers raising funds for a Greeley monument, a Louisville suicide linked to a jealous romance, and Josi Mansfield’s reported death in New Jersey. It also mentions the American Turnerbund meeting in Chicago, saloon closures in St Louis, bills for statues of Hancock Logan and Shields, tariff debates in Congress, Blaine denying a presidential bid, Fred Marsden’s suicide, the Reed Carlisle tariff wind-up, and a Stevenson-like ovation for A J Streeter. The piece also covers Welsh gold finds, imperial chatter, church and Irish affairs, a Chinese lawyer admitted to the New York bar, Yale and Columbia credentials, and Mrs West of Missouri’s Kentucky roots.
