Senatorship chatter and local trade ties in Tennessee notes
The Memphis Commercial Appeal column mixes medical quackery ads with civic chatter. It covers Senator McMillin's possible primary run, Bird Robinson and Schwab vibes, a self propelling baby carriage invention, a fraud suit against building and loan stock holders, record trots and sobriety, and a special Board of Trade meeting in Johnson City. It details freight-rate talks for a through line via Half City and actions to honor Brownlow with a memorial, plus notes on local politics, newspapers, and humor.
