EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous and satirical print captures President Cleveland as a railroad conductor in 1893, showcasing the political climate of the time. In the image, we see Cleveland collecting fares from William McKinley, who is holding a ticket labeled "War Tariff Pass," symbolizing the controversial policies surrounding tariffs during that era.
Sitting on McKinley's lap is an elderly man dressed as an infant labeled "Infant Industries," highlighting the protectionist economic policies that were prevalent at the time. The infant holds a pacifier connected to a bottle labeled "Protection Pap," further emphasizing the theme of government intervention in industry.
The composition of this image cleverly portrays complex political ideas in a lighthearted and accessible way. It serves as both a historical document and a piece of political satire, offering insight into the attitudes and debates surrounding issues such as tariffs and industrial policy during President Cleveland's administration.
Overall, this print provides a unique glimpse into American politics in the late 19th century, using humor and symbolism to convey important themes and ideas. It is a fascinating artifact that sheds light on the challenges faced by leaders like Grover Cleveland during this pivotal period in history.
