Sherman’s Cure. Ohio Senator Promotes Financial Remedy
Senator Sherman cited two recent presidential messages on the Monroe doctrine and national finances. He urged restoring ample revenue through taxation and borrowing from Americans, rejected notes at par with coin, and favored bonds to fund the deficit. Senator Mills countered that the 51st Congress bears blame for past fiscal policies and questioned revenue claims from the McKinley act.

Earliest Onions and Salzer Seeds in Minnesota Market
A sketchy note describes a Minnesota gardener thriving by growing early onions and other vegetables, sourcing seeds from John A Salzer. He reportedly yields about 100 bushels per acre and sells Salzer's King of the Earliest onion by July while promoting Salzer's catalog, offering free seeds for 12 cents postage. The clippings also mention Salzer’s catalog pricing, plus assorted ads and notices from various period sources in a newspaper page.
