This cartoon maintains that the national Democratic campaign of Grover Cleveland was having trouble tapping financial contributions from the party’s major donors. In the center foreground, William Harrity, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, sits in despair because the money trees have produced no “campaign sugar” to fill the empty barrels. Behind him is a perplexed trio of Democrats (left-right): publisher Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World (seated), Cleveland campaign manager William Whitney, and vice-presidential nominee Adlai Stevenson (hands in pockets).
