Wanted A Republican of prominence not a presidential candidate
A humorous brief notes several political figures and incidents. It mentions an applicant to the National Dime Museum, a theft of railroad passes from Mr. Howard of the A R U, and speculation about Bourke Cochran. John Sherman backs McKinley in a roundabout way, J Warren Keifer aims for governor, and President Cleveland declines a real estate syndicate role near Gray Gables. It ends with Kansas Republicans and a suggestion Morton replace a coachman on the ticket.
