Description: "Uncle Sam's lodging-house". Uncle Sam: "Look here, you, everybody else is quiet and peaceable, and you're all the time a-kicking up a row!" Illus. in: Puck, v. 11, no. 274 (1882 June 7), centerfold. Print shows an Irishman confronting Uncle Sam in a boarding house filled with laborers, immigrants from several countries who are attempting to sleep; the "Frenchman, Japanese, Negro, Russian, Italian," and "German" sleep peacefully. The "Irishman" kicks up a row. He has a bottle of rye whiskey at his side. Bricks are on the floor labeled "The Chinese must go," "Recall Lowell," "Agitation", "An Irish Minister to England", and "Irish independence". Uncle Sam and Columbia hold their hands over their ears in reaction to the "Irishman"'s loud tirade. He disturbs a "Chinese" man and an "Englishman," who are in the berths next to him.
