Pershing Future and the American Political Landscape
A fragmentary analysis argues Pershing’s future is uncertain as Americans weigh lifting him to office. It contrasts American wealth concentration with Britain's aristocratic system, noting Pershing’s detachment from army life and limited public drive for a presidency. The piece suggests his return would spark fanfare but may not galvanize a national movement.

The Brattleboro Reformer cites the Heston Transcript and US census data to dispute claims Vermont farm values are falling. It notes all farm property values rose from 1800 to 1880 and again through 1910, with substantial increases in good farms despite some declines in marginal lands. It highlights a Vermont example where a farm sold for much more decades later after improvements.
