Unknown Heroes and the Silent Laborers Through Time
A reflective poem honors unknown workers whose patient deeds and humble lives advance virtue unseen by the world. It elevates self denying labor as worthy before God and history, ending with a note on oblivion and eventual remembrance. The second passage accuses Democratic Senators of seeking to seat Kellogg of Louisiana via a bogus postwar legislature.

Lowe and Logan duel taunts and public reproof
The piece mocks Lowe a Southern politician for challenging Gen. Logan to a duel over alleged lies. It praises Logan for refusing the challenge and elevating public esteem. Rev. Dr. Westwood applauds Logan for anti dueling courage. John Deere donates $100 to aid freedmen fleeing Southern oppression. The Inter Ocean criticizes Democrats for wasteful spending and boosts Republican gains.
