Pawnshop Politics

Overview

After several amusing gags, including one in which a tough character seems to be holding up the pawnshop but is only selling his gun, Abie sees Kitty Dolan, whose father is running for alderman, and it is love at first sight. A rival candidate makes trouble and plants a bomb in the shop but Abie turns the tables on him. Election day finds Dolan's followers too lazy to vote. Abie stirs them up by offering to lick them and then running to the polling place with the mob at his heels. Dolan wins and so does Abie.
