Bill on Arct ic exploration and school funding debated
March reports from Washington describe Hawley and others proposing a $25,000 reward to locate the Greely Arctic expedition. A ten year common schools funding plan is debated, with annual appropriations starting at 15 million, then 14, 13 million, declining each year. The Senate discussed military academies, meat inspection, and federal judge salaries while the House confronts post office and whisky bills amid partisan clashes.
