Text reads "Wage Earners' Patriotic League" depicting a pen, mallet, and spade. This group was organized by Col. J.E. Blum and its motto was "Honest Dollars For A Day's Honest Toil." We found a pair of New York Times articles reporting on two of the groups meetings. The first from September 9, 1896 has triple headlines reading "No Free Silver For Them/First Rally Of Wage-Earners' Patriotic League/Remarkable Gathering Of Laboring Men On The East Side-Of Various Political Parties, They Unite In Opposing Bryan And A Sliced Dollar 'Though We Are Laborers,' Said One, 'We Can't Be Bunkoed.'"
