Print shows William Jennings Bryan as a goose flapping his wings and squawking, perched on a nest with a large egg labeled “Free Silver 16 to 1.” At his feet is a bowl of food labeled “Republican Non-Interference with the Money Question.” In the background, Mark Hanna and William McKinley are standing behind a gate that leads to the White House.
Caption: Chairman Hanna–We must be careful not to take that food away from him. We wouldn’t be nearly so sure of our jobs without those eggs.
