Susan B. Anthony Chasing Grover Cleveland with an Umbrella of Women Suffrage

Summary edit

Description This cartoon shows President Grover Cleveland, carrying a book titled "What I know about women's clubs," being chased with a "Women's Suffrage" umbrella by Susan B. Anthony, as Uncle Sam chuckles in background. The cartoon was created by Charles Lewis Bartholomew and published in the Minneapolis Journal on April 26, 1905. It was occasioned by an article that Cleveland wrote in the Ladies' Home Journal (in the cartoon Anthony has a copy of a magazine called the Ladies' Home Trouble tucked under her arm) warning that women's clubs were harmful to marriage and declaring that women should honor and care for their husbands. Anthony wrote a sharp response that was widely reprinted. In an interview she also reminded people of Cleveland's marriage infidelity and illegitimate child, saying "I think that Mr. Cleveland is a very poor one to attempt to point out the proper conduct of the women." By then, Anthony and her campaign for women's rights were widely recognized.[1]
