4th Mafeeti 786 - In the canton Beledam, yesterday, a memorial service was held for Merte Klamont, hero of the War of Technology of the 250th anniversary of his death. The man of words saved the city untold horror with his words, preventing the Tinkocracy from engaging Port Talp and allowing it to go mostly unharmed. His death, at the hands of tinker extremists had the opposite effect the killers wanted, convincing the leaders of the Tinkocracy that the city did not need to be attacked. Esteemed merchant and the founder of Rousal Cosmetics, Livianna Rosaul, gave a talk about the man. She is the only living person known to have talked to him.

6th Mafeeti 786 - The Tower of Time was destroyed by an unknown assailant. By the time the powers came to depend the tower, the destruction was complete, although the battle that ensued was monstrous in scope. Chaos magic on a scale not seen since the time of Bart reigned down. The Marshall herself arrived to deal with the problem and was able to drive off whoever it was that attacked the tower. Before her valiant effort, a dozen wizards were killed, including most of the Chronomancers. (note that the article is much longer, but I will only go into detail if any of the rogues has a particular interest).
This appeared in The World Beyond, and is listed as a story from Iott.

Any articles dealing with the decision to enter the war ?

Max wonders aloud: Wouldn't it be easier to just call it a clock? I mean its not actually made of time right? And can't the "time wizards" just fix this by going back in time and be better prepared? Whose in charge down there, these things are easy to fix. What's a chronomancer?

Two papers that you see (note that most aren't daily, some aren't distributed near you, and some don't report local news).
From the Ten Minutes: "City Leaders decide to enter Coastal War on side of Destroytian Republic. Measures to be taken yet to be announced. Look out for tricksters trying to take advantage of the war. No draft is in effect. No taxes have been levied."
From the Pom Daily: "Yesterday it was announced at various public forums that the leaders of our city have decided to take us to war with the Horarians. The decision was a laborious one that only came to a conclusion with the events of rogue Horarians who used slaves to bring ore into the city to sell. The emotion of that incident from last week has allowed the leaders to bring enough pressure to those that had held out against war to force their hand in voting for war. In the days and weeks ahead, expect to see taxes and regulations, which will fly in the face of the tenants of freedom that is the excuse for entry into this war."
