Editorials on elections power and corruption in 19th century press
An extended column argues Supervisors of elections abuse power, cites a Shaffer indictment, and warns of a force bill. It condemns Republican tactics and billion-dollar finance aimed at swaying votes, noting Andrew Carnegie’s $100,000 and other contributions as price-paid support for tariff interests. It also reports a Pamlico county alert about a Gideonite assassination plot foiled by a warning, praising local civic character. The New York Times editorial panel predicts New York’s electoral vote for Cleveland and Stevenson, citing strong indicators of Democratic victory.
