Hall a practical, solid congressman in Iowa
The piece lauds Congressman Hall as a practical, useful figure in Iowa politics. It contrasts him with so called geniuses of the era, arguing he is one of the finest in the delegation and capable of steady service without grand pretensions. It suggests Webster and Clay loom large but Hall’s steadiness stands out.
