Description: "Promise and Performance". Political cartoon of Andrew Carnegie sitting on bags of money during the Homestead Strike 1892. The caption reads:
Chorus of Workingmen -- Mr. Carnegie, you are worth several millions. Can't you give us wages enough to clothe and feed our families, and send our children to school?
Mr. Carnegie -- I have ordered wages reduced from 23 to 60 percent, and that goes. See?
Chorus of Workingmen -- But you told us when we voted the Republican ticket in 1888 that we would get high tariff and high wages with Harrison.
Mr. Carnegie -- Bah! Fools!
(Aside to Frick -- Close the works and crush those people.)
