With eight pages of vintage advertisements, contents of this issue include: Editorial by Joseph Fitzgerald (on various subjects, including "Lynching of Negroes at the South" which begins, "Frederick Douglass makes in the 'North American Review' a strong but temperate protest against the reign of lynch law at the South; and if the acts of violence of which he complains had no other reasons than those mentioned by him, the people of the South would be left without excuse or palliation for the barbarous treatment to which the negroes are so often subjected in that part of the country"); column For Justice in the State: Notes and Points; poem "The Tramp's Knock" by Nan W. Healy; "The Liberal Superstition" by Frank Sullivan; response to Mr. Sullivan's article entitled "The Other (The Prosaic) Side" by J. W. Sullivan (which begins, "I have been charmed in reading this delightful rendering of the illusive old poem of Anarchism. Mr. F.S. [Frank Sullivan] has employed the privilege of Syrian incantation and clothed the lay with his own sweet spirit and noble diction, so skillfully, indeed, one hardly recognizes it until brought back to earth-life by the question, 'How would this thing work?'"); "Dog Talk" by J. W. Schrimpf ("Animals, especially dogs, can be taught to speak, and they have a very elaborate language. It is not necessary to use words"); Correspondence (including a letter from Isaac Broome); columns Fresh Thought on Today's Topics, Politics and Economics, Current Items for Radicals, and Our Weekly News-Letter; "Religion and Skepticism" by Samuel Laing (an excerpt from his book, "Problems of the Future").
