Missouri political notes amid Oklahoma opening and inked memoirs
Four hundred office seekers called on the President on his first day back in Washington. Missouri political chatter covers Mills's likely speakership walkover, tariff disputes with hat trimmings, and tin plate ventures led by Neidringhans and a Welshman. Oklahoma opens to fifteen thousand settlers as Kate Fields questions rival intellects while local judges and candidates field races in Perry, St Francois, and Farmington regions. Ex governor Moreliante dies by suicide after typhoid and sunstroke.
