The nation applauds Admiral Schley as the investigation exposes his ship’s lone fight against four Spanish war vessels. Born 1840s era naval legend, Schley’s record spans Civil War actions at Port Hudson, Korea, Cape Sabine relief, and 1889 Chilean conflict, portraying unwavering valor.
The piece decries German Austrian economic distress and bank failures while arguing for expanding American markets to Germany and proposing a global minting system to restore prosperity. It contrasts silver advocates’ empathy with gold press indifference and calls for a universal metallic money policy to revive industry.
A nostalgic column urges residents to take morning walks along the railway and river valleys to appreciate Weiser’s autumn beauty and imagine growth. It extols trees and skies, praises business vitality, and argues for a bridge to Oregon trade, urging unity among merchants and noting a rumored Board of Trade death.
Huntington Herald notes Weiser merchants push a Snake River bridge to capture Harney County trade. It cites freight-rate advantages for Huntington on first class goods and argues Weiser must act to preserve regional commercial supremacy despite higher costs.
