AHA Statements Responding to Federal Activities
Print shows, on the left, Grover Cleveland tipping his hat as he leaves office in 1889, after passing the key to a large safe labeled “U.S. Treasury” with a “Surplus $100,000,000 Dollars” to incoming president Benjamin Harrison; and on the right, President Cleveland, returning to the presidency in 1893, gestures toward the safe as Benjamin Harrison departs. The door to the safe is broken off its hinges and labeled “Looted” and the safe is now empty; Harrison tips his hat on his way out. At bottom of image, it reads “‘The people wanted a change, and they got it’—Benj. Harrison. But the change was made in 1889, and we are still suffering from it—Puck.”
