Revolt Against Bliss and Republican Reform Calls
The Hastings Banner condemns Governor Bliss and his allies for buying delegates and selling offices in Michigan. It argues Bliss should withdraw and urges the Republican Party to nominate a capable, independent candidate based on merit, not money. The piece warns that endorsing a corrupt slate risks voters’ trust and party fortunes. It also cites Senator Hoars critique of U S policy in the Philippines and calls for a full, impartial investigation into wartime conduct.
