The New York Sun recalls Chicago's 1860 convention and Lincoln's memory to critique the 1884 Republican gathering. It cites Powell Clayton and William Belknap as symbols of postwar corruption, arguing democracy must protect Lincoln's stainless name from party misrule, while noting Salina excursion details.
