The Anaconda Standard lists foreign postage rate inquiries and multiple office and telephone numbers across Montana. It notes branch offices in Great Falls and mentions post building contacts, city locations, and various newsstand and address references for regional services.
The president will not act as arbitrator in the Venezuelan dispute. The Hague tribunal now handles the matter as all parties prefer. It is a prudent move that avoids US policy commitments and keeps the nation ready to take proper stances in future disputes.
Madrid authorities assure Parisian officials of safe delivery of the Humberts while denying suicide rumors. The Humberts face possible charges of fraudulent bankruptcy breach of trust or swindling as hundreds of victims nationwide suffer. A Portland jury convicts a man impersonating a pensioner, underscoring a broad pattern of fraud tied to a major money scheme.
An Indiana discovery of a life sized stone man stirs a dispute over ownership between Mrs Taylor and neighboring property owner. The stone, claimed to resemble Mr Taylor who died drowned years ago, raises questions of identity, inheritance, and possible sale for profit as a court weighs who rightfully holds the artifact. The finder asserts ownership while Mrs Taylor seeks her claim, with potential for a Solomonic division or alternate use.
A lengthy piece surveys land title origin from Puritan times to present, arguing state rights and crown claims in land, with opinions on Puritans, right of discovery, and the burden of original title. It notes jurists like M. Carney and Bennett on state control and private property, and references public figures and readers weighing property laws and reform.
A fragmentary report notes a Toronto miser named Tyman who died leaving $100,000, with his money reverting to the state and no known relatives. It mentions Congressman Dick and his chances for governor, and introduces a young evangelist Harry Harris, nine years old, who has chosen St Louis as his field.
A garbled humor and political poem fragment references Puck and cartoons, interwoven with lines about labor, capitalists, and toil. It mentions Mrs McCall and Mr Gadaway, a minister, and a manager glancing hurriedly, all hard to parse but evoking a satirical mood from a Philadelphia Press page.
A fragmentary OCR style line seems to cite a dateless verse. It references a king, his fire, servants, and a critic named Coleth. The readable bits suggest a medieval or Shakespearean tone, with mystic phrases about time and fate.
