EDITORS COMMENTS
Our Home Defenders: A Symbol of Protectionism and Prosperity - A captivating Republican Party campaign poster from 1896, featuring a head-and-shoulder portrait of President William McKinley standing proudly atop a gold coin inscribed with the phrase "sound money." Surrounding McKinley are a group of determined men, each holding aloft symbols of American industry and commerce - a ship and a factories smokestacks. McKinley's strong stance and the men's unwavering gaze convey a sense of unified resolve and commitment to safeguarding American interests. The gold coin, a symbol of economic stability, underscores the Republican Party's commitment to protectionist policies, which aimed to shield American industries from foreign competition through tariffs. In contrast, the Democratic Party advocated for free trade, which was perceived as detrimental to American industries and workers. The poster's title, "Our Home Defenders," emphasizes the idea that McKinley and the Republican Party were champions of the American people, dedicated to preserving their livelihoods and economic security. This powerful image, created around the time of the Spanish-American War, resonated with many Americans and helped solidify the Republican Party's reputation as a defender of American industry and values.
