A condensed review cites the Osage Herald stance on hobby riding, satire on an English writer, and political opinions on Governor Suizer and Cummins currency bill. The piece discusses banking control, government roles, and the need for reform, plus a partition suit notice in Knox County with heirs of Tryntje Buwalda Roorda and a September 1913 court term in Knoxville Iowa.
The Chronicle recalls last week's Booster claim about the White Way picnic and pastors. It notes a couple seen buggy riding with a man flashing a flashlight to obscure identity. It discusses Governor Sulzer's campaign funds probe, alleging false sworn statements and possible gambling with funds. It warns impeachment may follow as Tammany faces a reform setback.
Senator Cummins declares he is unalterably opposed to the administration's banking and currency bill. He cites two errors the plan imposes on federal banks and the vast power it confers on the federal reserve board. He questions readiness for government banking but sees no serious obstacle to it.
In Marion County District Court Gerrit Roorda sues as heir by bequest from Tryntje Buwalda Roorda.
