Spinner's Ideas on Finance and Currency Reform
Former U. S. Treasurer Mr Spinner criticizes Civil Service terms and millennial politics. He endorses paper money, favors legal tender notes convertible to U S. bonds at 3.65 percent, and argues for elastic currency to aid crops and transportation while keeping gold parity. He notes Democratic and Republican tensions and calls for practical finance over party machinery.

Cooperative mill saves costs with equal wages in Vermont
In Springfield Vermont a twenty man ten woman cooperative reports six months profits from cutting wages pro rata to maintain production. They earned $203 in wages, spent $2366 on board, $2564 on clothing and incidentals, adding $1368 to capital. Home profits from boarding added $250, totaling $1715 saved. Manufactured goods valued at $12,160. potential idle losses would have reached $7,178 for thirty workers. The group applauds the outcome. A California artist depicts a novel crucifixion variant, omitting blood and typical biblical figures, with a short statue and illegible cross inscription, sparking debate. Simple funerals are now fashionable.

Humors of Smuggling at the Custom House Museum
A Chamber's Journal writer surveys contraband in the Custom House Museum, detailing ingenious hiding places. Items include hollow fenders with tobacco, solid tobacco blocks, cigars in a loaf, cigars on a string, egg box cavities, a rope core in a broomstick, boot soles stuffed with tobacco, snuff slabs, a stewardess disguising tobacco in a petticoat, brandy in fish bladders, cognac in keel cavities, corked lobster pots, Cavendish in pigeon boxes, a glass book of eau de vie, and watches in a book with punched holes. Anxious delinquents confess, echoing Hamlet on conscience.
