Steele's Rudimentary Economics Tales from 1885-86, Part II Posted August, 2001

Cleverly disguised under the cover of RUDIMENTARY ECONOMICS is hidden a scrapbook of newspaper clippings from the late 1800s. 1885 to be exact. The first clipping apparently is from April, the last from January 26, 1886. A few are out of chronological order.

In June 2001, I began "re-clipping" some of the items that had been clipped 116 years earlier. Seventy-three stories appear on my first page of clips from June and July.

Here are some additional selections, re-clipped in August:
