THE OVERSHADOWING ISSUE! THE TRUE "INWARDNESS" OF THE "SOLID SOUTH!" AN OPEN LETTER FROM HON. JAY A. HUBBELL, CHAIRMAN REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE, TO THE ELECTORS OF THE NINTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN.
[Washington: 1880]. 16pp. Caption title as issued. Folded. Margins lightly toned, Very Good.
Dated in type at the end, October 2, 1880, from Washington. Republican candidate for Congress from the Ninth Michigan district Hubbell acknowledges the courage and personal character of Winfield Scott Hancock, Democratic presidential candidate and a hero of the Battle of Gettysburg.
However, the Northern Democratic Party is the captive of the "Solid South," and "is obliged to bend its neck to the yoke of Southern dictation. That is not a healthy state of things, and this is the very kernel of the nut which the people at this election are called upon to crack!" Hubbell warns of the evil consequences that will follow Hancock's election.
