Receipt stamp ruling and political notes from 1898 Lowell paper
The Lowell Daily Courier discusses a new attorney general ruling that bank withdrawals need not be stamped, noting it as a taxation evasion yet unpreventable. It covers Worcester District politics, Walker versus Thayer, and Democratic prospects, plus reflections on the presidents Chicago speech, Spain’s peace delays, and hazing reforms at Tufts and Bowdoin. It ends with a transit controversy on Tremont street and potential long term effects.

It asserts France could not mount a strong defense, predicts Britain would quickly defeat France, and notes Germany and Russia would escalate Europe into a hot time.
