President Grant standing before the Chief of the Oglala Sioux
Caption
End of the big talk at Washington' Editorial cartoon shows President Ulysses S. Grant, with his arms behind his back and with Interior Secretary Columbus Delano hiding behind him, standing before Red Cloud, Chief of the Oglala Sioux. Delano, extending his arms, pretending to be Grant, offers a handful of cooking utensils and presents a receipt, "Recd. for Black Hills $25,000 in 'Goods'" to Red Cloud, asking him to make his mark. Red Cloud, seeing Delano behind the president, replies, "Never--except for cash!"
