Scott for re election, arguing his strength with the government and farmers, opposing criticism from Erie Gazette and Corry Telegraph.

Howard Cary argues in the Forum for May that after more than a year under President Cleveland the civil service reform stands higher than in recent eras. He praises his conscientious selections, contrasts them with rivals, notes mistakes from trusting politicians, and concludes Republicans should repeat support given in 1884 to sustain reform and discipline in patronage.
