Declination of John Boyd Thacher Ends Chance for NY Contest

The decline of John Boyd Thacher removes the last thread of hope for a strong Democratic challenge in New York. Analysts say Ned likely to run, but no available figure could unite factions, sidetrack the money question, and threaten the Republican ticket led by Frank Black. Without Thacher’s leadership the New York campaign is reduced to a marginal effort with limited revolt potential.

Fake letter blamed on Panocratic campaign managers

A letter denouncing nutritious food and denigrating the lower classes is exposed as a deliberate fake. No such person exists at 11 Wall Street or anywhere in New York, and the Panocratic campaign allegedly published it to provoke class antagonism.
