Behring Sea dispute and political games in Congress
A long political column condemns Harrison Blaine for stoking anti British sentiment over Behring Sea sealing tensions with Britain. It notes a possible war risk, discusses the Force bill fight, and mocks Democratic resistance and Republican tactics in Congress. It also reviews minutes of a Baptist association and a humorous anecdote about a bank joke.
