Tramp Interview Reflects 1881 Outlook on Hard Times
A derelict visitor at a Madison office narrates a comic, biting interview about the coming year. He claims 100000 men represent a party with no name who want to be heard on results.

He recalls being kicked in Detroit and Indiana and foresees rising contentment and easier money in 1881.

A Louisville columnist argues the Democratic party will not dissolve given its national stature and current balance of power. The piece asserts only a drastic break could undo formation and dismisses other cures, while a stray note promotes Dening’s Cough Balsam as a cure and others joke about book agents and skaters.
