Abstract

The Week
September 4, 1879 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on various political issues from different parts of the U.S. The "National Greenback-Labor Party of the State of New York" assembled with great difficulty at Utica. The American Association for the Advancement of Science held its twenty-eighth annual meeting at Saratoga during the past week. Possibly a less formal system of organization, such as that of the German Association of Naturalists, would be found beneficial. A strong case has been made for the Irish "Home-Rulers," and notably in an article of the author Thomas Power O'Connor Power in a late number of the "Fortnightly Review," where he shows that their plans, however objectionable, are not irrational.
