Radical drift in senate boosts Republican numbers across states
The senatorial elections show stronger Republican influence with new members leaning radical. Indiana faces a personal clash over Cumback and Baker, while figures like Henderson and Doolittle depart. Wyoming delays in civil appointments loom as political pressure grows, and agitation spreads from Missouri to Wisconsin amid unusual national trends. A Fremont county mob incident and a dramatic hotel dispute in St Joseph also appear in a broad update from the frontier to Washington.
