The Contests of 1890 Focused on Policy and Tariff
In a Monticello Express supplement speech, Republican themes dominate. The speaker defends Garfield and Arthur, applauds Utah anti polygamy actions, praises national bank charter extensions, and advocates tariff revision to aid American industry and agriculture. He argues Democrats oppose needed measures and highlights river and harbor investments as essential for western commerce and jobs.
