What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **medical advertisements** (Scott's Emulsion, Damiana Bitters, etc.) with one small political cartoon titled "What They'll Do." The cartoon depicts two men in conversation. The caption identifies them as **Deacon Fitch** and **General King**. Their dialogue concerns California's "Industrial Army"—likely referring to Coxey's Army or similar labor movements of the 1890s—and speculation about whether it will reach Washington. The humor appears satirical commentary on contemporary labor unrest and political anxieties about organized workers marching on the capital. Without clearer historical context visible on the page, the specific identity of these figures and the precise reference remain somewhat unclear, though the cartoon's concern with labor movements and federal politics is evident.
