Creator(s): Gillam, Bernhard, 1856-1896, artist
Date Created/Published: N.Y. : Published by Keppler & Schwarzmann, 1883 October 17.
Summary: Print shows Benjamin F. Butler as a military officer sitting on a horse, gesturing with his 'Programme' to a snickering man labeled 'Solid South' to get him to fall into line with Butler's support for his presidential bid in 1884. On the left, already in line, are 'Old Soldiers, Discontented Republicans, Oldtime Democrats', and 'Womens Rights' advocates, also two old men labeled 'Greenbacker', paupers, and prisoners, as well as a group of infants labeled 'The Babies Cry for Him'. The horse, who also looks a little like Butler, leans over a pile of hay on which are papers labeled 'Notoriety, Sensationalism, [and] Controversies'.
