The August 25 1921 article argues the apex law and proposed repeal face strong opposition as Congress weighs a revision bill. It contrasts prospector rights with large operators, quoting John F Davis and pressing that lawmakers should act, not merely discuss.
Citizens expect the new Republican administration to clear debris from eight years of Democratic rule and rebuild the republic, signaling decisive action beyond rhetoric as Congress moves to address the nation’s recovery.
Theodore Roosevelt expressed a creed on churchgoing noting that many Wal lace residents attend less due to modern life’s lure. He argued the simple church service offers real benefit when attended with proper mindset, contrasting mobile cinema and cars as distractions with enduring faith.
The speaker notes that while worship can occur outside churches in groves or by streams, most people attend church. He cites sermons by good pastors and their wives, Bible readings, hymns, neighborly kindness, and a sense of charitable feeling toward all, including foolish youths who think churchgoing is merely performative.
The Salt Lake City chronicle notes a three week upturn in Utah mining with signs of bottoming out and an incipient revival. It cites ultra conservative banking as a brake on prosperity, urges brighter mood and looser credit, and emphasizes mining as Utahs pillar supporting the economy now and ahead.
The Indianapolis News argues for a 3-cent postage rate to raise 4 billion dollars for next year. It contends the improved first class letter service justifies the tax as self-collected and low cost. Every stamp used would add a cent to government revenue without extra administration.
The piece notes persistent buyer hesitation among manufacturers and retailers, forcing wholesalers to act frugally. It recalls a four year stretch of shortages, where producers, wholesalers, and retailers bought high and sold slowly, fueling speculative surpluses. When prices dropped, the market rapidly shifted to sell-off as inventories released.
The passage notes restricted markets reduced production, causing unemployment and low mood. It explains consumption has exceeded production, drawing on speculative postwar surpluses that are now exhausted. Soon consumption must be met by current output, implying a forthcoming business revival.

The article examines the Pittman act amid shifting silver supply and demand. It notes foreign production trends, European currency pressures, and Germany’s silver shipments as collateral for loans.

Kansas labor court hits two major marks as it turns 16 months. The Kansas Supreme Court upheld the Industrial Court law in the Howat appeal, and 1920 coal production rose about 12 percent with mine working days up 60.7 over 1919. Gov. Henry J. Allen and Kansans see law as safeguarding industry and public interests without eroding worker or employer rights.
