Farmers' Alliance and President Harrison clash over inter state railroad post
The national Farmers' Alliance recommended Mr. Duncan of South Carolina for inter state railroad commissioner and urged President Harrison to consider the paper. Polk faced discourtesy from the president in delivering it, with no stated reason. The piece questions whether the alliance has a right to petition and suggests personal bias against Duncan and potential resentment toward public figures. The article also contrasts Kansas election totals with claims by the Associated Press about the People’s party votes, noting miscounts and refining the statewide result.
