This cartoon takes its theme from Carl Schurz’s commentary from the previous issue, in which the editor praised gold standard Democrats for rejecting the results of the Democratic National Convention. Here, Senator James K. Jones of Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, offers campaign uniforms to “Life-Long Democrat[s],” a group including the stereotypical laboring man (right, in white cap). All of them sternly refuse the uniforms with outstretched arms. In this August 8 issue, Schurz asserts that it is the duty of “patriotic sound-money Democrats” to work for the election of Republican William McKinley. The editor stresses that far more is at stake than monetary policy since the Democratic platform and new leadership are turning the party toward socialism. |
