Hayes era brings order curb to politics despite party doubt
The New York Herald notes the President Hayes order barring officeholders from political participation. Washington officials react with concern as the move signals a bold political shift.

The Republican county convention in Roscoe Hall names Barnes as Treasurer nominee amid broader party tension and forecasts difficult races ahead.
