The Kansas legislature moves against the Standard Oil influence while The Kansas City Star notes Sherlock Holmes stories printed in collaboration with Collier's Weekly. The piece also covers the electoral college canvass on February 8, opinions on patent medicines in Texas, and editorials on consumer disclosure.
The Eagle backs a reader’s protest against street lighting cuts. It cites citizens’ ability to finance lighting, criticizes local neglect, and notes the council has only one local electric company to contract with while urging an organized effort to build a proper light plant with substantial backing from city banks.
The writer argues Bryan should fund a modern light plant with up-to-date machinery and enterprise. The city council cannot create light by resolution and must wait for adequate resources to illuminate dark streets.
J F Marceneuy responds to a Bryan Eagle issue criticizing the city council for discontinuing street lights. He argues the council should promote progress and modern utilities, noting Navasota’s brighter system and urging Bryan to maintain lighting to avoid becoming a dead town.
