Charges of patronage offer in Grant Schurz dispute
The New York Times and Morton and Conkling deny Senator Schurz's claim that he was offered President Grant's patronage to back the San Domingo policy. Morton asserts the offer is false and uncharacteristic of Grant, while Schurz maintains he has evidence. The piece notes ongoing debates over veracity, urging formal denials or proof, and cites editorials from State Sentinel.
