EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "FARMER AND TRUST CARTOON. Nothing but Feed and Fight" captures the essence of American politics in 1887. Illustrated by W. A. Rogers, this cartoon depicts Farmer Jonathan, symbolizing Uncle Sam, preparing to defend his fields against invading trusts. The image serves as a powerful commentary on the growing influence of monopolies and their detrimental impact on the agricultural industry. In this thought-provoking artwork, Farmer Jonathan wields a hoe as his weapon against the menacing monster representing various industries such as coal, oil, steel, and sugar cane. These trust monsters embody greed and power that threaten to consume the hard work of honest farmers like Jonathan. Rogers' artistic genius lies in portraying complex political issues through vivid imagery. By incorporating symbols like thistles to represent anarchist sentiments and Uncle Sam personifying America itself, he highlights the urgency for action against these trusts. This cartoon resonates even today as it reminds us of the importance of preserving fair competition within our economy while protecting small-scale farmers from corporate exploitation. It stands as a testament to how art can serve as a catalyst for social change by shedding light on pertinent issues that affect everyday citizens.
