| Description | Print shows a vignette cartoon with, at center, a place for Republican's to go to commiserate while awaiting the next election with such stalwart Republicans as George F. Edmunds, John Sherman, William M. Evarts, George F. Hoar, and Thomas B. Reed waiting it out; surrounding vignettes show a prominent citizen being escorted by two "Bureau of Public Comfort" guards, who keep the press at bay, a sewing station for women's clothing after a round of bargin shopping, a room where anarchists can blow off some steam "without disturbing anybody", an educational facility to help orient new-comers to the ways of the city, and a hypnotist who attempts to convince servants to work in the country. |
