Printed 109 years ago today in The Tacoma Times. Image cleaned up, see the original. (Lamentably, that page also has a racist caricature on it.)

Found on the Library of Congress site. Feel free to pick a cartoon and post it yourself!

Oh boy did they ever. Tearing up fences and burning them, stealing produce out of fields and throwing it at houses, barricading all the adults inside their houses so they couldn’t ruin the fun…

Tasting History did a pretty interesting video on it, actually.
