A column of assorted opinions and notes surveys Gen Miles in command talk, free silver, Dewey celebrations, southern industry, cotton mills, and political aims. It praises local papers, editorials conflicts, and the push for southern manufacturing, wheat growth, and railroad revenue reforms while lampooning politicians and national figures.
A broad, fragmented narrative discusses military glory and public office respect, then shifts to prominent African American figures like Booker Washington and Bishop Henry M Turner. Turner advocates emigration as a race solution, while Southern reaction targets Miss Lillian Clayton Jewett and Northern media. The piece includes a testimonial about Chamberlain's remedy saving a child's life and a note on Savannah gossip about George Fred Williams.
