This article focuses on political developments in the United States as of February 25, 1875. The Boston exposure of the construction contracts of the Chicago, Dubuque and Minnesota, and the Chicago, Burlington and Dubuque Railroads, will probably do something, for the time at least., to fix public attention upon a branch of the railroad question which much needs it. U.S. Governor Samuel Jones Tilden said in his recent message to the legislature, that the problem of municipal government was agitating the intellect of all civilized peoples.
