The cut in the Repub- lic has a care, woe begone, haggard expression as if he had eaten nothing but office paste for three months and that had soured. While the Kansas City Times’ picture makes him round and well fed, but the expression im- presses one that he has just stolen a mule and is trying to look innocent and sactimonious. Neither of these pictures do justice to our genial, whole souled, funny Bob; and he should immediately bring suits for damages against those papers. They bear about as much resemblance to Bob Walters as a Hottentot does to a 19th century gentleman.
