Bell-Everett newspaper in Augusta, Georgia calls the Breckinridge-Lane candidacy the "Suicide Ticket"

The Augusta, Georgia newspaper, Daily Chronicle and Sentinel, supporting the Bell-Everett ticket, dubbed the Breckinridge and Lane candidacy the "Suicide Ticket."  Taking political advantage of Lane's support for the detested Homestead Bill that many southerners considered an "abolitionist" measure, the editorial went on to describe the pair as "Squatter" Breckinridge and "Homestead" Lane.  (By John Osborne)
