Poppycrat turmoil cites silver coinage facts and bias
The long screed denounces the Poppycrats for repeating false claims that no money was coined since the Sherman act and argues Secretary Carlisle confirms substantial coinage. It presents figures through Sept 20 1896, notes silver and gold coinage totals, and warns voters to seek full facts rather than one sided silver rhetoric. The piece also contrasts European demand, tariff changes, and U.S. revenue concerns, urging skeptical reading of party literature and urging support for sound money.

Free silver argument challenged in rhetoric analysis
The piece mocks two free silver arguments by arguing that coinage of silver would reduce incomes of high earners and fail to address lower wages. It questions if salaries from $10,000 to $5,000 and from $500 to $250 per year would be affected, then continues with a second free silver argument.

The item also mentions Kellady Post and Monroe’s W R C honoring R B Shankland on his 66th birthday with a surprise gathering and gifts.
