The Week

July 11, 1895 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents economic and social updates of the U.S., as of July 11, 1895. Now that a general rise in prices is actually taking place, the bimetallists have to abandon their great argument from declining prices, and betake themselves to other expedients. The most available of these is that of stability of prices under bimetallism. Another update says that though prohibition makes no progress, there is in all parts of the country a growing sentiment in favor of such restrictions upon the liquor traffic, as public sentiment will enforce. A notable evidence of this tendency is found in the new liquor law passed by the Indiana Legislature, which has just gone into effect.
