Statesmen Endure Defeat The Disappointed Presidential Aspirants
A Globe Democrat look at defeated presidential candidates shows how quickly fame fades. Burr, Clay, Calhoun, Van Buren, Cass and others faded from memory yet carried on with public service or private life. The piece traces post defeat paths from Burr’s exile to Clay’s late senate work, and Lincoln era reversals, noting the enduring dignity of many figures despite lost races.

The Mistake of Kaiser Wilhelm and German Unity
The article argues that Kaiser Wilhelm II's overbearing rule and autocratic ambitions threaten the German Empire. It notes growing unrest among non-Prussian states, rising independent diplomacy in Bavaria and other realms, and friction with allies over military and domestic policies. It also references past imperial missteps and calls for caution amid spreading disunity.
