No Show for Washburne
The New York Sun argues Elihu B. Washburne has broad Republican appeal but is unlikely to be nominated at Chicago. Rivalries with Cameron and Conkling, plus opposition from New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois delegations, create an insurmountable machine against his candidacy.

Washburne for President How to Unite the Republican Ticket
The Chicago Journal argues Elihu B. Washburne would unite the party if nominated. German Americans and Liberal Republicans would back him, Democrats might prefer him to Wilden, soldiers support his wartime record, and his record on economy civil service and purity would attract broad backing. The Journal claims he is the strongest standard bearer for the coming national campaign and urges Republicans to consider his availability and popularity.
