A Pictorial Appeal That Did Not Save
Mr.. Hall From the Democratic Flood.
There were all sorts Of documents turned
loose in this campaign, some of them very

elected, so he had Q sheet of lithographio
sketches prepared from ideas Of his own and
copies Of it were circulated quite freely. In the
center Of the sheet was q picture OF Mr.. Hail.
In the upper right-hand.corner three men are
represented AS being on lumber raft. Their
pants-trousers we're not fashionable on the
frontier at the period representative unani-
mously tucked in their red-topped high-heeled
boots One of them, presumably Mr. Hall, has
patches on his clothes just where they are
most conspicuous and where they would do
the most good. Another picture Is that Of

corns on his hands with the aid of . breaking

yoke of bulls hitched abreast that are pulling
the breaker through the tough prairie sod. A
third sketch presents dress parade Of Union
soldiers with o river and the rebel ram Msrri-
mac in the background. Mr.. Hall il on sentry
duty in the foreground. The last picture shows
Mr.. Hall at work in field Of grain. He is not
working as hard as the horses are, for he is sit

preston on Mr.. Halls features would indicate
that Mr.. Hall WAS mad because there 10 a duty
