Colfax Letter and Political Notes from Logansport
A Logansport column contains Colfax correspondence criticizing a canvass approach and outlining plan for a joint effort, plus notes on Huntington Fremont Club formation and a list titled Twenty Reasons for leaving the Democratic Party. The piece reflects Indiana political tensions ahead of the 1860s elections and includes dated remarks and local civic activity.
Slavery as the national issue dominates party lines
The Charleston Evening News and The New York Day Book declare slavery the central issue. Southern leaders push for a national slavery policy while Democratic figures split, with ex governor Myers backing Fremont and Dayton. Local papers shift support to Freemont and Dayton, discarding Buchanan.
