Republican currency plank urged to favor bimetallism
The piece argues against absolute silver coinage and urges the St Louis convention to adopt a platform praising safe Republican policy. It notes strong opinions on vice presidency duties and salaries, Clarence Reed and McKinley nominating dynamics, and praises protectionism while downplaying currency debates. It casts doubt on Harman-esque reform and lauds a fiscally prudent path.

Bloren & Co Proposes Local Bank Note Circulation Plan
A Philadelphia firm argues for immediate legislation to permit a local bank note system under national supervision, backed by gold or its equivalent, to restore stable value and strengthen credit. The circular cites silver coinage limits and notes per capita money declines from 24.44 in 1892 to 21.35 in 1896, linking it to currency dissatisfaction.

Perfect accord on sacred concerts for Sundays and weekdays
The Pittston Tien agrees with Dr. Mc Leod and the Scranton Tribune that sacred concerts are acceptable on Sunday or any day if they provide better music and less bickering than the average church choir. Music whether vocal or instrumental secular or sacred is timely and welcome if harmonious in origin, execution, and effect.
