Title
The spirits of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln looking at a throne
Caption
The honour of the country in danger' The spirits of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln looking at a throne draped with an American flag beneath a sign that states 'This coming term will end the first hundred years of the American presidency. Shall the century begun with Washington at the head of government end in disgrace with James G. Blaine in that sacred chair?' Below is Blaine, tattooed with scandals and frightened by the shades of past presidents, his hat labelled 'Corruption' falling off, with his foot on the first step toward the presidency.
