History Mosaic, Mantel House Reading Room, Library of Congress Page 83 Mr. Elihu Vedder has adorned the five tympanums in theentrance to the reading-room. Corrupt legislation exhibitsa woman of careless and corrupt mien, sitting upon a thronewhose arms are cornucopias of money. She rejects the appealof her poverty-stricken subjects for help, and in place of theeven balance of justice holds a sliding scale that will easilylend itself to bribery—indicated by the bag of gold a rich manis placing in its pan. The voting urn is overturned, spillingits neglected ballots, and wealth is piled at the foot of thethrone. In the background the factories of the rich are activeand prosperous, while opposite the industries of the poor areidle. Anarchy is the result of such government, and is repre-sented raving with torch and wine cups upon the ruins of theState. 92 RAND McNALLY WASHINGTON GUIDE
