A false alarm on the fourth
A false alarm on the fourth. Illustration shows Uncle Sam, holding a firecracker, trying to reassure a concerned-looking female figure with wings labeled Peace that all the noise she hears is for the celebration of the Fourth of July. Celebrating with Uncle Sam are several figures labeled Alaska, New York, Texas, Mass. Hawaii, Porto Rico, North, South; one disgruntled figure labeled Philippine is climbing over a wall, also an African American is sitting near Uncle Sam. Some are lighting strings of firecrackers, Texas is shooting guns, and Mass. is firing a cannon in the direction of the wall Philippine is climbing over. The US Capitol building is in the background and a dove with olive branch hovers over the figure of Peace. Date 1902 July 2. A false alarm on the fourth.
