Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: "The Balky Team"
Caption: Uncle Sam. "Say Mr. Wasp, you'll never get that wagon out of the mud unless your team pulls together. Can't you see the rocks? Description: As described in the Morning Call: The Wasp of this week has an excellent cartoon on the Chinese situation. Wasp is driving a six-horse team, which is trying to haul the entire Chinese population out of the country. Two of the horses are labelled, respectively, "California Press" and "Eastern Press." The former is pulling steadily, with all his might, to draw the vehicle along, while the other is fractious, balky, and refuses to pull. So of the others–"Missionary" and "Capital" are kicking, while "Industry" and "Workingmen" pull their best. The Burlingame Treaty, represented as a rock, blocks the near fore wheel, and Puritanical Notions the near hind wheel. The load is heavy enough to sink the wheels into the mud, and Uncle Sam, leaning over a fence, remarks, "Say, MR. WASP, you will never get that wagon out of the mud unless your teams pull together. Can't you see those rocks?" |
