An Inter Ocean report from Chicago notes Indiana’s marshal for the Eighth district failed to return votes by the third Monday, reducing General Garfield’s plurality to 3771. The piece suggests a law amendment and questions notification of the governor’s appointee.

The text argues that true honesty in money exists only if gold coins are valued equally to silver coins.
