Roosevelt Era Rooster Roars At Reserves In Democratic HQ
A clean shaven oversized rooster perched at a Democratic headquarters declares in his beak that he swallowed the reserve vote while a second rooster glows beside a light with portraits of Russell Corcoran Bena and Dale. The scene mocks Republican missteps over a mutilated speech and the McKinley bill claim. Citizens react with humor as Democrats claim victory while Republicans lounge in disarray.

Three youths convicted of arson attempt at Beverly mill
Arthur D. Foster aged 12 Leslie A. Bailey aged 10 and William R. Tuit aged 13 were tried before Judge Safford for attempting to burn Peter E. Clark's Beverly mill. They were convicted but placed on probation due to youth after State Agent Hull's representation. Arresting officer Nehemian S$. Heron may seek the $500 reward, though payment hinges on arson conviction rather than mere attempt.
Salute In Installments Honors Russell Victory
The Democrats attempted a forty four gun salute for Governor Russell but a firing pin accident halted after the seventh shot. The salute resumed in the evening and the full salute was fired to celebrate the victory. An international Jewish congress is planned in London for 1892 to address Jewish colonization problems.
