Grant era political turmoil and Louisiana invasion debate
In a critique of Kellogg's Louisiana regime, the piece argues the 1860s style invasion by troops was partisan. It questions quorum legitimacy and laments the militia's role. It notes congressional investigations, calls for ending military despotism, and comments on Republican defections and Senator-elect Andrew Johnson's election.

James Boys Bandits Targeted Clay County Home
Mrs Bawnels living near Kearney, Missouri, became the target of a bomb attack blamed on pursuit of the James brothers. A jailbreak of violence followed when a gun or bomb exploded in the Samuel family home, injuring Mrs Samuel, her stepfather, a servant, and two children, with one boy fatally wounded hours later. Detectives linked to Pinkerton’s Chicago agency were said to have disembarked from trains nearby during the night, prompting debate over vigilante action and the ethics of using grenades to capture outlaws. The incident drew statewide condemnation and prompted a legislative inquiry request to Governor Shiels.
