Business and the House from the Cleveland Plain Dealer
The piece argues that a Democratic House in the next Congress would threaten business interests, warning that either a large party majority or a Republican Senate could curb or coerce administration policy. It contends Roosevelt’s election could invite a check by a hostile House, while a strong majority may prompt dangerous arrogance in Congress and risky policy outcomes.

Dooley on the automobile and social yaw in 1904
Mr Dooley argues the automobile is a grand but dangerous fad. He notes the rich chase excitement, with cops, courthouses, and clashing class visions, while praising restraint and public-spirited use over vanity and danger.
