Fractured Politics and Tariff Talk Across Parties
A May frost and restless party activity color a slice of political chatter. Reports hint at tariff disputes, Republications facing corruption charges against Boss Quay, and Blaine's possible cabinet exit due to ill health. Illinois and Iowa voices challenge tariff support while Palwer eyes a Senate bid. Democratic plans in Atlanta seek gubernatorial timing, with editorial notes on foreign manufacturers and prohibition. A sermon on clerical pay contrasts divides clergy and preachers, followed by a promoter of Dr Kings New Discovery and other remedies.
Stones for Johnsons Island graves mark Confederate dead

Mills Opposes Sub-Treasury in Strong Texas Letter
Congressman Mills of Texas denounces the sub-treasury bill, warning it would recreate Reconstruction era conditions by placing Republican officials in charge of warehouses and usher in corruption and oppression. He prefers losing his seat to supporting the measure and advocates opening more markets to aid farmers. Georgia congressmen reportedly draft objections, while Col Ben Terrell warns Alliance action if Southern members oppose the bill. Ball’s worm destroyers are praised for three decades of tested efficacy and large sales.
