Title

The Stage of the Campaign When the Working Man Feels His Importance

Description

This cartoon shows politicians, including New York gubernatorial candidate Theodore Roosevelt, cozying up to the "working man," as the 1898 congressional and state elections entered the final week. Berryman points out the attention lavished on the labor vote, a potentially powerful voting bloc in the era of industrialization.
