A home remedy claims to cure both diseases within twelve hours using a ging and fox garnish mix with water and sugar given hourly. The note adds dosing guidance for children and suggests rapid disappearance of symptoms. The piece then shifts to political commentary about David B. Hill and the Democratic Convention.
A political note urging Democratic Senators to back Senator Davis on his amendment. It argues the issue is life and death for Porto Ricans and that one Democrat should imitate Republican expediency over honesty and duty.
The injunction bill of the Federation of Labor is eminently just. It argues that no act by two or more men is criminal if not criminal when done by a single person. It links conspiracy law to old English common law from eras when workers had little protection.
Cheap publishers flood the nation with circular letters urging opposition to the Loud Bill. The measure aims to curb second class mail by excluding dime novels and worthless sample publications, a move publishers deem unnecessary and unhelpful for youth.
A preacher claims editors cannot tell the truth or the paper would fail. The editor counters that a minister who always reveals members' bare truths would flee town after a brief stint. They argue the press and pulpit whitewash virtues, while the gravestones form a saint making trio. The minister leaves while the editor resumes praising a bride’s beauty, though she is ugly as a mud fence.
In a call to action Vienna debates tearing down and rebuilding its public school, urging bonds of ten thousand dollars to finance a new, modern facility with updated conveniences. The plan includes selling the old property and funding waterworks as well, urging voters to support an upcoming election.
