by [Maine] [Civil War]
[NP, 1863. Broadsheet, 7" x 6-1/2". Caption title as issued. Printed in two columns per page. Small piece torn from center of top blank margin where originally posted. Otherwise Very Good.
This Republican Party broadsheet opposes the Democrat Bradbury's 1863 candidacy for Governor of Maine. His speeches-- as a Congressman and as a previous candidate for Governor-- show him as a spineless flip-flopper. In 1862 he defended the war effort. In less than a year he became "a malignant Copperhead." A supporter quotes him that, "with or without qualification he is opposed to the war," and that, if elected Governor, he would, in concert with Governor Seymour of New York, "withdraw the troops of Maine."
