Tax Burden and Civil Unrest Across War and Peace

The piece contrasts heavy taxes totaling 3.9 billion dollars over a decade with lighter wartime levies, noting widespread poverty among industrial workers. It cites figures from 1861 to 1865 showing lower wartime taxes and higher postwar taxation, and reports a violent incident involving a white man Peter Daw and a Black man, with several wounded and one fatality. It also covers Kentucky and Louisville political shifts with white Democrats sweeping and Black voters backing the Liberal Radical ticket, plus a conundrum about Andrew Johnson’s hypothetical nomination and Congress reaction.
