Abstract

The Week

November 8, 1894 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents an overview of several political and social issues. An uncommonly large proportion of the States voted upon constitutional questions of the first importance on Tuesday. The people of New Hampshire, Delaware, and South Carolina decided whether to call conventions to frame new constitutions. That the Republicans would carry the Northern elections this year was generally expected, but the extent of the victory was not anticipated. The great Howard ease has been disgraceful to everybody concerned from the beginning, and has ended ludiciously. There never was, from the beginning, any doubt that Howard was a domestic servant, and therefore not within the contract-labor act.
