Worthington’s Nevada candidacy strains Virginia Enterprise ties

General Henry G. Worthington, elected to Congress in 1864, shifts support to Hancock and English while remaining in the Republican fold. The Enterprise denounces him as a carpetbagger, recounting Nevada Convention politics and noting his later federal posts as Judge in South Carolina and Charleston Port Collector. The piece argues the paper would have condemned Worthington as a Copperhead had he aligned with Garfield, and raises questions about Treasury funds and bank failure.

State Treasurer Crockett has not yet received a clean character certificate from all Board of Examiners. The Board initially exonerated him for depositing state funds in Reno Savings Bank where he was vice president, then the Attorney General denied the report, followed by reaffirmations from Governor Kinkead and Secretary of State Babcock. A later card from the Attorney General partially concedes, indicating doubt about complete acquittal.
