Notable 1880 US and Ireland political notes and press
A late 1880 article reviews a US House bill fixing the president salary at 25000 yearly, another bill for a Lafayette monument at Brandywine, amid editor battles over the Morey letter. It notes Allen loitering in Washington, Marshall Hall appointments, and a new Greenbackish Pennsylvanian paper. It comments on Gladstone's denial of 200000 for the Prince of Wales debt, Irish Land League unrest, and Princess Louise’s Canadian tour, with Parliament adjournment looming and tension rising toward potential violence.

Monopolies Grow in Agriculture and The Call for Cooperation
The write up warns that capital driven farms using steam power threaten individual farmers as bonanza enterprises expand across vast tracts. It argues monopolies will widen the gap unless farmers form cooperatives to share tools, stock, and labor, ensuring access to modern implements and collective bargaining.
Farmers Warned of Bonanza Monopolies Rising Power
A Wisconsin era column argues bonanza farms will monopolize markets as railroads and legislatures tilt for them. Farmers and clubs urged to act now before enemies strike, while praising combined farmers over capitalists. The piece also touches race and prosperity, a Solomon’s Temple anecdote on tools, and an ad for Edson Brothers patent services.
