A poetic fragment from Harper's Young People describes a swing in autumn light. The speaker notes leaves, breeze, and regretful longing as shadows glow and birds sing, hinting at cycles of nature and returning springs.
A pastor recalls a near fatal railway crash witnessed during a long run on the Sagamore line. The crash left the general manager injured, a proverbial miracle, and a man’s wedding postponed by weeks due to head injuries. The tale blends fear, fate, and a final watchful return home.
A dense critique of President Harrison's congressional message, labeling it Bourbon and partisan. It argues for McKinley tariff support, subsidies, and the force bill, condemning the president as out of touch with voters and likening the Republican line to 19th century carpetbag rule.
A jokey travel sketch on the American grape facing London and Paris, then tariff debate across six states with figures for 1888 and 1890. It blends humorous foreign observation with political results, highlighting farmer votes against McKinley tariff and shifting House seats.
