| | HarpWeek Elections 1872 Overview |
 | | On January 24, 1872, U.S. Senator Carl Schurz of Missouri, judging the Grant administration to be irredeemable, issued a call for a national convention of liberals to nominate a candidate for president. | | | The movement, with somewhat shifting membership, can be traced from their temporary break with the Republican party in 1872 to their support of Benjamin Bristow for the Republican nomination in 1876 (with a few eventually supporting the Democrat Samuel Tilden) to their bolt from the Republican party in 1884 to support Democrat Grover Cleveland. | | | Grant assumed the presidency in March 1869 as America was undergoing the sweeping, unresolved changes of Reconstruction; thus the important and difficult responsibilities of implementing Congress’s Reconstruction Acts fell upon his shoulders. |

| | The General Mining Act of 1872 has left a legacy of riches and ruin |
| | Nearly two decades later, Congress adopted the Lode Law of 1866 -- a troubled bill that won passage because it was attached to unrelated legislation. | | | Facing stiff opposition from a Republican-controlled Congress, Democrat Babbitt switched gears in early 1997, pushing for more modest reforms through a rewrite of his agency's own rules for administering the law. | | | It's pretty much the same deal miners have had for 129 years, ever since Congress approved the General Mining Law in 1872. |
