Description

Editorial cartoon depicting tiny men in suits around a seated figure labeled "Aldrich." Some of the small figures say that they agree with Senator Aldrich. On the wall behind all of the figures, there is a map of the United States with states in the North-Eastern area enlarged. Nelson W. Aldrich was one of the major decision-making Republicans in the United States Senate by the 1890s.
