Jamestown Proposes Free Gas for Manufactories
Jamestown views with alarm the Ohio towns proposing free fuel for manufactories. It plans to fund a $500,000 gas venture, secure gas territory in Pennsylvania, and deliver affordable gas to Jamestown households while making manufactories pay nothing. The plan aims to attract 50,000 to 100,000 new residents and boost Chautauqua County wealth. Fredonia Censor notes possible countywide benefits if Fredonia secures a local gas well.

Her Teachers and the Singer’s Deepest Note
The poem questions who taught the singer the high note and fuller tone of sorrow. It contrasts a light touch and whispered joy from her beloved with a deeper, richer chord drawn from love’s depths, attributing growth to the two men who influenced her: the whispering lover and the man she loved.

The Brewer’s Wealth and Warning for Youths
The Providence Journal recalls New York brewers sold about 4,000,000 barrels in 1886 earning roughly 4,000,000 dollars. It notes some owners live grandly, with mansions near the park, while many rely on others’ labor and drink freely to secure customers. A college offers free brewing education to four boys yearly, yet the writer urges youths not to enter the trade, citing hard lives, social pressures, and dismal temptations despite high profits.
