| Description | Illustration shows Whitelaw Reid, in the dark shadows of a street, pouring alcohol from a large jug labeled "Tribune Tonic Crooked Campaign Brand" into the open mouth of an Irish man wearing a plumed hat, a cape labeled "Plumed Dynamiters' League", and holding a large knife labeled "Blind Animosity" and a stick with a bomb attached to the end. Stephen B. Elkins, crouched behind Reid, is keeping a lookout; both are wearing plumed hats. On the wall behind them is a notice that states "Grand Mass-Meeting! Mr. W. Reid will speak on 'The spread of American Ideas among the Irish'". Puck's "Independent" Party figure is walking down the street with Grover Cleveland. |
