May 18 1897 Wooster newspaper notes and political aside
The Wooster Republican printing list comments on international events and domestic politics. It references Americans starving in Cuba, McKinley's aid to Cuba, tariff delays, party divisions in Ohio, and calls for enforcing laws on President Robison. It also mentions plans to invite William Jennings Bryan and Governor Bushnell to Wooster and remarks on Turkey Greece tensions and Cuba reports. The piece blends editorials with partisan notes and international concerns.
McKinley Gained Senate Confidence on Cuban Question
Curtis of the Chicago Record notes a shift in White House and Senate relations under President McKinley. He cites early 12 year past tensions over arming the Cuban policy, and says McKinley’s candor has won Senate trust, delaying final action until informal information is authenticated.
