The Boston Post issue from September 15 1910 presents a daily publication with notices and local items. The fragment includes French language text and remnants indicating page notes or centralized content from the Boston Post Publishing Co. at 259 Washington Street.
Observers note Delaware’s total popular vote under 50 000 with the Republican majority near 3 000. The claim that inviting Black voters to cast ballots under a Jim Crow car law would swing the result is doubted.
Rates are shown for six months and one year with varied monthly prices. Canadian copies cost 9c per issue. The publication is entered as Second Class Matter in Boston. Payments should be made payable to POST PUBLISHING COMPANY.
The Post informs readers subscriptions must be paid in advance and will be discontinued on expiration without further notice. Readers who cannot obtain the Post regularly from their newsdealer should notify the office by mail or by personal contact.
The Maine election casts Governor Bert M. Fernald and his Republican allies as out of touch with rising public sentiment. Voters swept away the old guard, signaling a political shift that critics say stems from misunderstanding of the times and contempt for dissent. The piece predicts a broader reckoning in November.
The article defends little sympathy for women smugglers labeled modistes who profit by evading duties. It argues smuggling for private adornment is a lesser crime, while large scale commercial smuggling harms the public and should have no apology.
The editor expects acting president Mellen to push immediate reforms including rolling back milk rates and advancing electrification of the Hoosac Tunnel. The line’s poor condition demands new cars engines and stations, with faster trains and stricter timetables as likely outcomes under his control.
The Delaware Democratic platform proposes state law to require separate railroad accommodations for white and negro passengers. The piece argues this local racial policy is unnecessary given Delaware’s population mix and cautions against excluding people of color from white cars.
An editorial argues Boston’s population and influence are limited by strict boundaries. It urges immediate steps toward union with surrounding towns, possible nomenclature changes, and a Greater Boston committee to prepare a plan for the next Legislature.
The piece argues the House would shift to Democrats only if voters mandate change. It links reform to relief from high living costs and opposition to the Payne Aldrich tariff, urging nominations that reflect the popular will and favor economy over party.
The Albany Journal criticizes direct nominations as discredited by results but argues the governor candidate won a majority of voters who participated. It contends the primary displaced corrupt governor-makers and legislature bosses, praising the outcome and urging more of the same.
A playful line asserts a girl’s beauty by reverse thinking that she knows she is pretty. It then compares an angler’s lack of complaint to fish biting as persistently as mosquitoes, creating a sharp humorous contrast.
A whimsical verse describes the Mayor of Boston riding an auto to Squantum and then aloft in an airship as English and Emerald Yank operators command the craft. The piece celebrates civic leadership and city life with playful nautical and aviation imagery.
A humorous exchange about a joke captioned Be a heavier than air machine and the witty back and forth between Grahame White and Riley. The letters depict light banter about jokes, wireless calls, and a comic sense of danger from laughter. Boston dialogue reflects playful joshing among correspondents.
In Squantum Mags dated September 14 the note reports a formation of six biplanes two monoplanes two helicopters and one dirigible observed under Grahame-White. The piece uses a playful phrase meeting the enemy and he is ourn.
The Observant Citizen notes Boston welcomes the English aviator who is enjoying the city and may stay longer. It mentions a drop in winter squirrel food on the Common due to water pipe excavations for irrigation, with a hungry animal seen accepting a nut but not burying it.
In Maine a scene echoes Dick Whittington as McGillicuddy returned to Lewiston to become mayor. In Sullivan Square two sparrows chased bread then dodged a car, one perched on a girder, the other later retrieved the snack.
