[Turnverein Riducules Police Tyrant]

Illinois Staats-Zeitung, Feb. 4, 1873

The masquerade at the Vorwarts Turnverein was a great success. The decorations represented the tragi-comic end of the police tyrant, Washburn, and of his protector, Medill. There was much dancing, refreshments and drinks were plentiful.
