October 9, 1874: Train Centralization, Liquor on Trail, and Election Call to Action

  • Summary

  • I’m Spencer Barton, and these are your headlines for: October 9th , 1874


    Election Day is next week. This week I wanted to take the opportunity to refresh you on two of the most important issues of our day that will be impacted by your vote next Tuesday. The first is a summary of the Rail road centralization bill before Congress, which was drafted by our own Rep. McCrary. The second is a recap of the ways in which temperance legislation has been played out in the courts following the end of the last session of the Iowa Supreme Court.


    And later, I will hope to rouse all voters to turn out next week and ensure that their neighbors do the same, as I fear for the stability of our nation under the current and unceasing threat coming from southern terrorist leagues and the mockery they deliver to our fought for democracy.
