Controversial Amendments and Political Turmoil Highlight 1879 News
A December 20 1979 retrospective reprints a fragmented mosaic of political debate and social topics. The piece discusses a proposed constitutional amendment banning polygamy, critiques Mormon practices versus Gentile misconduct, and questions moral degradation. It notes political shifts with Kellogg, Spofford, and Bpford in Senate seats, Ute prisoners bound for Washington, and Democratic gains in Louisiana. Also covered are railroad ventures in Nevada, vilified publicity by the Carson Appeal, and voodoo beliefs observed in New Orleans. The report touches on Grant and Babcock rumors, local frontier disputes near Modesto, and wheat prospects in the Branislaus region.
Irregularities Scrutinized in Post Office Contract Affairs
A long, terse report describes contracts and alleged irregularities in a large postal service. It notes the absence of the Postmaster General on a California trip during key awards and references acting officials and inquiries. The piece contrasts claims of accountability with calls for Congressional investigation and debates over funding and route expansions.
