Mark A Cooper Appeals for Road Reform and Fair Freight Prices

In a strong open letter, Mark A Cooper defends his twelve years of labor on the State road, citing over $150,000 in freight payments and vast personal investments. He argues freight charges deter investment and population growth, urges the state to reduce costs, and seeks justice for Governor Johnson and the public interest.

Louisville Riot at the Polls and Know Nothing Impasse

The piece denounces a Louisville election riot as hundreds were deterred from voting by intimidation and mob action. It cites armed factions, Know Nothing leadership, and alleged ballots manipulated in Seventh and Sixth Wards, including assaults on foreigners and Congressman Wm. Thomasson, with broad condemnation of the day’s events in Kentucky.

Turbulent Louisville riot leaves several dead

A violent disturbance on Shelby and Main streets escalated as Irish and German factions attacked, looted German coffee houses, and fires burned houses. Police, including Mayor Barbee, intervened, but waves of fighting continued through the night. Dozens were shot, some killed, with five reportedly roasted, as mobs targeted the Times and Democrat offices and the city faced an apparent breakdown of law and order.
