A Practical View of Free Silver and Money
The author argues against free silver, contending silver dollars would be useless without trade goods or labor to exchange for them. He questions the value of silver at 16 to 1, asserts most people cannot obtain silver dollars, and urges voting against repudiation by supporting the current money and prosperity through trade.

Horseless steam fire engines proposed for Boston fire dept
Boston considers adding two steam driven fire engines after earlier trials in New York failed. The Transcript notes horses resist the steam roller, fearing its loud roar and smoke as it clatters through congested streets. Hartford’s Jumbo is cited as a heavier, costlier example, while its water throw rate isn’t proportionate to weight.
