Descent to Demagogy in Democratic Platform Critique
The Democratic platform is accused of demagogy as it seeks to rally farmers against Governor Herrick over vetoed appropriations for an agricultural building and the governor’s mansion at the State University. The piece argues the veto reflected prudent retrenchment with university trustees and other interests, and hints at heightened political theater with humor about Humidity and Senator Depew.

Fragmentary carnival of quips and sales pitches from a vintage advert page. It features a humorous aside about a dog, an odd coupon prompt from a newsboy, and assorted low price offers from The Biggs & Everard Co for dinner sets, skirts, hose, and wraps.
Truth and lies in a horse trader tale from Santa Barbara
A rambling 19th century group of men banters about honesty in business on a sleeper car tale. A horse dealer from the Pacific coast jokes that he sometimes lies to describe horses, while a New York lawyer admits truthfulness would hurt his bottom line. The circle muses on Jim Murphy the liar, then shifts to a wedding and a coffin joke, ending with a line about growing a mustache.

Also jokes and witty exchanges about college graduates, czar gifts, and social quips from various papers.
