Non-Partisan Politics and Fusion Critique
Edward Lauterbach argues that parties must bear responsibility for governance from national to local levels. Fusion politics, he says, shields corrupt practices, weakens party accountability, and undermines reform by mixing factions and diluting credit for improvements in cities like New York and Brooklyn.

Questioning State Accountant Challinor and GOP bookkeeping
A reader challenges the accuracy of state books kept under Republican oversight, asking if Challinor is a fool or if others are mistaken. The letter references past administrations, a fable about Ex-Gov Crawtonp, and disputes a claim about a gold reserve tied to the 1575 redemption law. It argues the resumption act did not mandate a $100 million gold or silver reserve.
