Congress Passes Army Retirement Bill and Grant Nomination
In the final hours of Congress the bill to place one person on the army retirement list passed. President Arthur nominated General Grant and the Senate endorsed the nomination unanimously. Washington witnessed a grand inauguration crowd of about 150 000, a peak civic display. The Illinois Legislature continues stalemated over the US Senator election. Speaker Haines supports Morrison while Free Traders and Democrats face internal divisions. Missouri Pacific in Texas faces a potential strike as shop workers reject a 12 percent wage cut, threatening train operations.

Galveston loses bid for deep water harbor amid aid shifts
The piece argues Galveston would have been better with last year’s quarter million dollar offer for deep water harbor work rather than the meager one hundred thousand dollars given recently. It notes Aransas Pass as a viable alternative and highlights skeptical views on federal port projects and the broader Gulf Coast impact. It also covers social topics from Chinese New Year reflections to political commentary on Congress and Grover Cleveland’s inauguration with endorsements of economy and civil service reform.
