Democratic Convention of Indiana Presses Currency Reform and Policy

The Indiana State Democratic Convention endorses retirement of National Bank notes in favor of Treasury notes, legal tender for all debts, and universal paper money under government control. They demand restoration of the silver dollar, repeal of the resumption act, wage protections, coal mine ventilation laws, and opposition to federal subsidies, with leaders named including Hendricks and Tilden. The speech criticizes President Hayes and Sherman over the Louisiana trial and calls for stronger state independence from federal influence.

Indemnity Terms Reveal Turkey's Financial Collapse

The article argues Russia favors a territorial indemnity to Turkey rather than money, citing Turkey’s bankrupt finances after decades of debt. It notes foreign loans, high interest, and annual deficits reaching up to 90 million, with total indebtedness nearing 1.5 billion dollars. England holds many Turkish bonds, complicating creditors' positions.

Literary Women as Housekeepers Reflecting Prejudice

Scribner argues that literary women face unjust judgment for household neglect. The piece defends intellectual women, noting the double standard where male genius avoids blame while women lose respect for similar flaws. It urges mothers to prioritize family and supportive partnership, valuing culture as nourishment for children, and laments the era’s search for paid work.

Substituting Treasury Notes for National Bank Notes

A House Committee bill proposes replacing national bank notes with Treasury notes equal to the 1878 circulation of 320,647,690 dollars. Notes would be issued by the Treasury, circulated via assistant treasurers, and national bank notes retired as Treasury notes replace them. Banks may exchange bonds for notes, with safeguards on redemptions, taxes, and liquidation of bank bonds.
