'Barking dogs never bite'' President McKinley walking onto the White House grounds with a woman labelled 'Prosperity', passing a group of barking dogs labelled 'Anti-prosperity,' 'Silverites,' 'Anti-trust,' 'Anti-expansion,' and 'Socialist.' The woman, dressed in a red, white, and blue outfit, may represent Columbia or possibly Mrs. McKinley; she is wearing a winged hat like that of the Roman god Mercury, though may also represent Minerva, the Roman goddess and patroness of commerce and trade.
