Pro-Bryan rhetoric and satirical jabs in a late 19th century column
A fragmented column satire targets Bryan and Populists with quips about free trade, perjury, and elections. It mentions Carl Schurzs support for Bryan, Italian war talk, and quotes about Jesus guiding newspapers. The piece riffs on political figures, journalism, and wartime sentiment with humorous invective.

The Bloemfontein conference between Sir Alfred Milner and President Kruger is examined, detailing Milner’s proposals for naturalization and oath conditions that would grant full franchise after residence and compliance.
