Defrauded Candidate Tilden Opposes Constitutional Act
In a Saratoga interview with Smith M. Weed and the writer, former president elect Samuel J. Tilden harshly denounces John Sherman as a rascal and condemns the electoral commission. He notes his disapproval of the act as unconstitutional, blamed Edmunds and Bayard, and argues civil war might have occurred if troops were used to enforce outcomes. He insists the wrong to the people, not to himself, is the gravest harm to popular government.

Care of Tools and Farm Machinery
Farmers lose value from dull weathered implements and poor storage. A tool house saves wear and repair costs while keeping items in order. Use grease, lard resin mix to prevent rust, apply castor oil on axles, and paint to protect wood. Petroleum preserves wood and enhances appearance. New York World.

California’s Famous Trotter and the St Julian Purchase
A Newburgh letter recalls St Julian, the California trotter tied to General Grant’s cheers after a 2 12 mile. The horse's origin traces to Goshen, New York, where farmer and owner Mr Galway bought him for 600 dollars after a track test. St Julian later won all circuit races from Cleveland to Poughkeepsie, earning around 20 000 dollars, then sold to Orin Hickox of California. In California he posted a 2 17 trot, with trainer William Sargent driving. St Julian is a half brother to Gloster.
