Notices cover promotions in the Green party, prep for Greeley remains, harvests on Bell farm, and other national incidents from New York wrecks to Ischl arrivals, rail strikes, and a New Jersey fire recovery.

Oklahoma Payne and five followers are arrested and taken to Fort Smith after General Hatch's troop action forces the camp at Rock Falls to evacuate. The printing office is seized, the plant is moved, and the settlement is burned to remove intruders from Indian lands. About 260 people are ejected, with varied reactions from locals attending the scene.
