Campaign broadside that includes a map showing the expansion of Union military control in the South. Includes paragraphs headed "Who commenced the War?" and "Have we made any Progress in Crushing the Rebellion?" The text underneath the map attacks the Peace Democrats by demonstrating that the rebels started the war, and that the current administration has made considerable progress. It cites numerous figures to prove the progress. Asserts that, "To-day not a rebel foot-step profanes the soil of the Loyal States, except that of a prisoner of war." Published by the National Union Executive Committee, Astor House, New York.
