The free silver highwayman at it again
A highwayman identified as a “Silverite” holds two handguns labeled “Free Coinage” and “McKinleyism.” Papers extend from a pocket labeled “Paternalism” and “Wild Cat Schemes.” He is holding up a stagecoach labeled “National Prosperity” with passengers labeled “Lawmaker, Banker, Farmer, Workingman, Manufacturer, [and] Merchant.” The “Lawmaker” and the “Merchant” have both hands raised, while the “Banker, Farmer, Workingman, [and] Manufacturer” are reaching into their pockets.
