A petty annoyance' Illustration shows President Cleveland (1837-1908) walking down a path toward a building flying a banner labelled 'Non-Partisan Government'; a diminutive Thomas A. Hendricks, Vice President, is tugging on Cleveland's coattails, trying to steer him down a path labelled 'Spoils System'. There is a small dog labelled 'Aquilla Jones' on a leash that goes around Cleveland's right leg and is connected to Hendricks. Jones was appointed Postmaster in Indianapolis by Hendricks.
