Download

Print shows New York politician John ("Honest John") Kelly trying to bring Tammany Hall back to life by turning an electrical apparatus labeled "Deal with the Republicans" connected to an "Anti-Monopoly" device, then with wires spelling "Patronage" to a rod held by a man dressed as a Native American lying in a coffin labeled "Tammany Died 1880"; the jolt of electricity knocks the moccasins off his feet.
