The President and His Friends in Missouri’s Leader
The Weekly Leader notes Grant's early presidency stirs party rifts. It argues the Republican ranks split between administration and anti administration wings, cites Senators Morton and Conkling as pro reelection backers, and claims civil service reform and patronage battles shape the 1872 scene. Also reports Liberal Republicans meet in Missouri, demand equal suffrage, amnesty, tariff reform, and public service reform, and urges Cincinnati convention participation. The column comments on Missouri politics, railroads, and local notices including Brown, Schurz, and Missouri policy support.

Grant and Defaniier Mexican War Credit Dispute
A long retrospective notes how Grant as a former commissary and quartermaster in the Mexican War faced unsettled accounts and repeated Treasury notices. Congress in 1862 granted $1,000 to compensate alleged losses, but auditors kept crediting this amount, leaving a large unresolved balance. A 1870 inquiry shows efforts to settle under a wartime equity act, amid ongoing delays and political maneuvering.
