Marble Hill Press Opinion Column Mixed with Industry Notes
A 19th century column from Marble Hill Press discusses social thoughts on selfishness and learning, then shifts to industry trends. It cites Louis A. Peltier, a London stock offer, and a Greek proverb. It recounts Philadelphia arch history and a 1896 railroad locomotive and export growth, with a critique of cheap goods and exploitation by retailers.
