This is a political cartoon from 1898, likely related to the Spanish-American War. It depicts two men standing on either side of a large letter 'A'. The man on the left is labeled 'Pulitzer' and the man on the right is labeled 'Hearst'. Both men are pushing on the letter 'A' as if trying to move it. The man labeled 'Pulitzer' is depicted with a large mustache and is wearing a suit. He is saying, "Say young feller watch de tome. I'm de tome - you gant buy id. I'm a goot ting put don't push me. See!" The man labeled 'Hearst' is also wearing a suit and has a similar appearance. He is saying, "Say this is my war I bought it and paid for it. And if you don't stop bothering me about it I'll have you put off the earth - see! P.S. Me name is Hearst." The letter 'A' has an American flag on both sides. The background shows a room with a floor and some indistinct furniture. The cartoon is signed 'Louis Dalrymple'. The overall tone of the cartoon is satirical, suggesting a rivalry between Pulitzer and Hearst over the coverage of the Spanish-American War. The cartoon implies that both men are trying to manipulate public opinion and profit from the war.
