Indiana Ohio Republicans import roustaboutes and ne gr eoes
Republican writers claim Indiana will swing Democratic due to alleged importing of roustaboutes and "negroes" from other states. They accuse Indiana clerks of funding Kilpatrick's money and Bloody Shirt campaign and discuss alarming post office actions. The piece notes a fatal Columbus area accident and details political speaking appointments in the thirteenth district for Troy New Hope and Truxton in October. It also covers bond debates, editorial space shifts, and a Washington World summary dismissing a Tilden income suit as unsubstantiated.

The writer charges illegality in charter actions, insists no vested rights existed, and questions who should bear losses.
