French Socialists Oppose Government Move in Parliament
The Socialist opposition vows a pitiless war against the Meline ministry, charging its formation with constitutional violations. They plan a resolution against President Faure as talks of May Day stir the chamber and newspapers foresee parliament dissolution. Meline, born 1835, leads protectionist farmers and has navigated decades of political shifts. The cabinet reshuffle discussions include Me Myline potential May 1 appointment and expected Radicals pushback. Wolcott clarifies his Republican stance on currency, while a New York incident sees a postmaster dismiss deputy over claims of bribery tied to silver policy.
