Complete HarpWeek Explanation:
The Republican notion that Governor Samuel Tilden, the Democratic presidential
nominee, was a sham reformer is manifested in this simple but bold drawing. The
candidate winks at viewers as he reveals that his "reform" is part of
a larger plan of selfish plunder-"The lion's share for me." |
