Print shows John Kelly carrying a basket labeled “27,000 Votes For Sale,” accosting passengers on a “New York Train,” seeking buyers. Around the car, men are seated beneath windows labeled “Democratic Nomination Hewitt for Gov.,” “Cornell for Gov.,” “Folger for Gov.,” and “Wadsworth for Gov.” They are reading newspapers labeled “Half Breed,” “Greenback,” “Independent Puck,” “Stalwart,” and “Machine Paper.” Caption: John Kelly Here you are! I’ll sell to anybody else, except “blind pool men.” How much for the lot?
