Rev. N. S. Bradley has given the free silver issue much thought and study. He addressed a good audience at the court house Monday evening, expressing his ideas with clarity and conviction.
The second meeting of the Davison County Free Silver Club at the courthouse drew a large audience as Rev Mr Gradley outlined free silver principles. He explained money’s two roles as medium of exchange and measure of value, traced the dollar unit to 1792, and argued demonetization harmed the economy by shifting redemption money toward credit money, weakening the monetary system and increasing gold demand.
Mr G W McKinsey, postmaster of Kokomo Indiana and former soldier, describes long battles with heart disease after the war. He suffered palpitations, breathlessness, insomnia when lying on his left side, and chest pain before his attention was drawn to a remedy or treatment that changed his condition.
A humorously told rise story follows a clerk who is noticed by a factory head and released to take a better office position. He advances rapidly to near the manager role, eventually matching the president’s salary after succession in the import house. Also snippets on a social comedy and Polish parish customs appear.
The excerpt discusses women concealing valuables with beads and pearls, Orthodox Jewish customs with silken wigs after weddings, and a catechism anecdote about the chief end of man. It references Poland, Poland’s Jewish practices, and a quote about life purpose from Cuyler’s “Riam's Horn.”
