The 1900 issue notes Congress members struggle to explain votes on the Porto Rican bill. A local ad promotes Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as a maternal aid for night coughing and colds, with J. P. Spalding as retailer.
Question about attribution asks whether Tallyrand or McKinley spoke a line about language concealing thoughts. No definitive source confirms either as the origin of that phrasing. The claim seems apocryphal or misattributed to these figures.
Citizens praise the medicine's role in curing bad colds, averting pneumonia, and saving children from croup and whooping cough. The text notes wide approval and mentions sales by J. P. Spalding.
The Senate has practically agreed to kill the French recignacity treaty if France refuses to postpone until after the election. Thus vanishes another republican platform promise.
An advertisement offers Chamberlain Pain-Balm as a remedy for rheumatism, sprains, bruises, cuts, burns, frostbites, quinsy and chest pains. It guarantees relief after one application and claims faster healing than other treatments. Sold by J. P. Spalding at 25 and 50 cents per bottle.
The piece argues Democratic prospects improve as Republican rifts widen daily. It claims Republicans reveal their imperialist stance on Porto Rico, dispelling their expansionist mask and presenting a clear choice to voters.
The Chicago grave diggers have formed a union to pressure the city council. They demand that burial be denied unless the body is placed in a union coffin, aiming to influence official burial practices.

A speaker argues against imperial conquest of the Philippines. He warns expansion would breed enmity, risk trade with Asiatic rivals, and stain American honor. He urges independence with equal rights, warns of Manila’s retention, and cautions that destiny cries mask moral cowardice. He calls for sober reasoning over jingoistic zeal.
The infamous Loud bill has been blocked again in a third attempt. Lawmakers failed to advance the measure, renewing debate on its fate while opponents celebrate the setback.
