Description
A man attends a speech fest at North Side Hall featuring popular Republican reformist Graeme Stewart. Each panel illustrates the man's frustration as the event goes later into the night and Stewart does not appear. The final panel shows the man the following morning reading the newspaper headline "Stewart spoke last night at 12 meetings ending up at midnight in North Side Hall."
Captions: "Under one: I want to hear Grimy Stewart because he's a Chicago Product, so I'll get around there only early tonight and get a good seat. Under two: Well, I got a good seat and not to hear Mr. Stewart! I wonder why he doesn't come. Under three: Great Scott, that man up there has talked an hour, I wonder when Stewart speaks. Under four: Well, I can't wait all night. I guess comething happened to him. Under five: Well, well, it seems that he spoke at other places last night and I didn't wait long enough.
