In this page from the Review of reviews, three political cartoons are featured. The largest features the Syndicate showing a portrait of Abraham Lincoln to Labor with the words "You can fool some of the people all of the time; you can fool all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time" The caption reads: "Hanna: 'He didn't know his business'"
