A poetic riff satirizes the rise of many self styled rulers in a new republic. Images of kingship multiply from sea to shore while agricultural symbols—cows, beets, hens, pumpkins, onions—are depicted as a bountiful but unwieldy treasury of national abundance.
A humorous notice dated December 15 1898 invites all Wadsworth residents and "inmates of the Inferno" to a dance at Vaughn's Hall on December 26 starting at 7 pm and running to January 2 1899. It promises no grievances for past wrangling and mentions meeting candidates in Stillwater. Also advertises Syrup of Figs as a laxative remedy for children.
The Wapsworth Distatch offers a one year mail combo with the San Francisco Bulletin for $6.50 paid in advance. Six months costs $3.25, three months $1.75, or 75 cents monthly by mail or carrier. The Bulletin delivers AP and leased wire news sixteen hours ahead of San Francisco papers. Subscriptions must be paid in advance with no deviation. Try three months and renew if satisfied. Address with cash.
An advertisement urges readers to leave money in town and place orders through traveling agents for the Weekly Examiner. It promises the same prices and premiums and directs orders at the District Office or the Post Office.
