Public sentiment shifts as voters switch from Radical to Democratic
The Logansport Pharos reports a wave of political realignment in Indiana. John Saxon of Jackson township declares he will vote Democratic henceforth, bringing at least twenty supporters. German Republicans in Marion and elsewhere say they will back the Democratic ticket, while voters grow tired of tariff, high taxes, negro suffrage, and the bonded debt. The piece also critiques economy claims at the White House and ridicules Radical calls for more brigadiers, noting uneasy party discipline and cavalry of quotes from Cincinnati papers about cadets and generals.
