[notice], Boston Investigator, 19, 21 (September 25, 1849), 3. The letter of friend Warren, in another column, should not be passed over on account of its length. It is the first of a series of familiar correspondence on one of the most important questions of the day, and will be found very interesting.

[notice], Boston Investigator, 19, 2 (May 16, 1849), 2. Josiah Warren, the indefatigable pioneer of Reform, accompanied by Amos E. Senter, and his accomplished wife, passed through here last week to join the brotherhood who give “Labor for Labor,” in Utopia. A few friends called upon them, and had a graphic sketch of the cheering reception given to friend Warren’s views, in Boston; where, during their exposition in public, the closest scrutiny of questioning brough only satisfactory responses, and faully satisfied the most skeptical opponents of progress, that “Equitable Commerce,” which makes “cost the limit of price,” is the true […]

“Equitable Commerce,” Boston Investigator, 19, 2 (May 16, 1849), 2. Equitable Commerce.

“Equitable Commerce,” Boston Investigator, 18, 49 (April 11, 1849), 3. Equitable Commerce. The following article on this subject by Josiah Warren, its discoverer, will be read with interest by his friends in this city and throughout the country :— To the Editor of the Investigator: Dear Sir:—In accordance with your request, I would gladly make use of your columns as a medium through which the public might get some idea of “Equitable Commerce,” but I do not know that I could re-state the subject in any better form than that in the pamphlet entitled “Equitable Commerce,” from which you are […]

“People’s Sunday Meeting,” Boston Investigator, 18, 46 (March 21, 1849), 3. People’s Sunday Meeting:—Next Sunday afternoon, the question of Equitable Commerce, or Mr. Warren’s new plan of Social Reform, will be discussed.

“People’s Sunday Meeting,” Boston Investigator, 18, 45 (March 14, 1849), 3. People’s Sunday Meeting:—Mr. Warren’s lecture last Sunday afternoon on Music was well attended, and listened to with much interest. He commenced by going into a long and critical examination of the present system of teaching the art, and after showing the difficulties of acquiring it in consequence of the vague and ambiguous mode in which it is written, he presented his new system of writing music, which he maintained was so simplified and easy to understand as to be reality acquired by the masses. He has paid much attention […]
