The Daily Journal reports Senator McDonald's bill to allow states to tax legal tender Treasury notes as personal property, with taxes not exceeding those on gold or silver. The piece also covers satirical Colorado humor and the Hazen court martial controversy with details on charges, acquittals, and Hazen's later actions.

It notes Hazen's persistence in seeking posts and his eventual reputational soft life at the Austrian court, while Greene gained firsthand field honors. A weather query to Senator Hill quotes mixed views on the South's political alignment under Garfield.
The court ended a penalty action against Sharpless & Sons for using a photograph of a baby elephant copied from Schreiber & Sons.
