Hayes Unpopular for Presidency Amid South Support Doubt
A Baton Rouge dispatch to the Picayune reports strong South-sympathy doubts about Governor Hayes. It notes his lack of notable legislative acts, weak public appeal, and alignment with Grant-era corruption. The piece also recounts violent Port Hickey disturbances with a Democrat allegedly targeted, a posse clash, and a chase into swamps as eleven Black combatants were captured.

Mrs Lincoln Estate Report Shows Bond Growth
Mrs Lincoln widow of Abraham Lincoln has been declared capable of managing her estate after a jury freed her from guardianship. Her son Robert Lincoln, as conservator, reports estate at 81560 35 with annual additions from government bonds funded by income surplus. This year bonds worth over 4000 were added and Mrs Lincoln confirms the account as correct. A ludicrous Centennial incident occurs at the fair gates involving a 14 year old from Illinois passing the stile. Admission was granted through the wagon gate after gatekeepers failed to assist. Mrs Ann Extra Youne has earned 50000 from lectures on Brigham and Mormonism and will share more next September.
