Galvani (which begins, "Among the blessings of the United States government is its instrumentality in making it possible to rapidly develop the 'magnificent' resources within ITS domain. So claim its prominent representatives, the army of office holders. They point with pride to the 'grand' results achieved by the encouragement THEY gave to regularly incorporated companies, whose 'public spirited' enterprise has supplied 'this great land of ours' with the modern transportation lines - railways. Let us see how much of a blessing this encouragement has been to the American sovereigns"); a collection of "Musings" by atheist and freethinker Otto Wettstein (i.e., "Agnosticism is cowardly, unreasonable, and debasing. It places a reasonable, logical, necessary, honest unbelief on a par with a superstitious faith which it itself pronounces false and unreasonable"); "Another Letter From the Rev. Sidney G. Law"; musings entitled "Diversions of Opinion" by Hudor Genone (William James Roe); article "Of What Does Patriotism Consist?" by Edward P. Faxon; short "The Colossus" by Bart Kennedy; Correspondence (including letters from Eleanor F. Baldwin and Eliza B. Burnz); Our Weekly News-Letter (news from various publications). A complete issue; former owner's name in pencil to upper right corner of front cover; covers light to moderately soiled, particularly along edge areas; small corner chip to rear cover; interior pages age-toned.
