Promotion of American Banking in South America
The piece argues for expanding American banking presence in South America to support credit and trade, noting current limits faced by American merchants versus British and German rivals. It links this to broader U.S. foreign policy and seeks a "square deal" in both China and South America, stressing credit terms of three to six months as key to winning market share. It also discusses tariff policy shifts among Southern leaders and references The Charlotte Observer’s stance on protectionism, Calhoun’s tariff doctrine, and evolving economic views in the South.

It argues such elementary business sense would give American commerce a first place in South American markets rather than second or lower.

The
Graft Prosecutions Fail to Bind Principal in San Francisco Case
The San Francisco graft case ends with an acquittal or hung jury as the chain of proof proves insufficient to link Calhoun, the street railway official, to bribe money. Prosecutors showed a path from Calhoun to Ford to Ruef, but the crucial link to the principal remained legally weak. Still, the case is expected to influence public sentiment and expose systemic corruption.
