Printed 108 years ago today in the Chicago Day Book. I modified the image Brightness and Contrast.
Found on the Library of Congress site.
How is it rich assholes looked EXACTLY like that 100 years ago, and STILL look exactly like that today???
Kind of freaky that one looks like Wilford Brimley…
@Rolando Everett in full “Man of the People” mode. There was another one along the same line where a pastor recognized a rich deacon for donating for foreign missions and Everett yelled that the money would be better spent fixing up the tenements he owned which were in such bad shape they were a danger to the inhabitants
A couple questions:
- I’m not sure what a “labor grinder” is. Someone who grinds down laborers?
- Not sure what “discount everybody’s bills” means. It doesn’t sound like a good thing.

I think you’re right about “labor grinder.”

I think they follow the Trump method of not paying people who bill them for goods or services rendered, or claiming a “discount” and only paying part. Like him, they know the creditors usually can’t afford to take it through court.
