Sharp Practice - Editorial response to a Mr. Cox from the Ohio Statesman who had raised a point about Charles Upton claiming a seat in Congress.
According to Cox - "This Upton was, until recently, an editor and part owner of the Zanesville Courier. ....We suppose the truth about the matter is, that Upton was about Washington looking for an office, failing, went down to Alexandria and fixed up a poll book."
Article goes on to defend Upton and how has suffered at the hands of the Confederates.
