The Spanish American war

 This political cartoon supports the Spanish American and what it represents. The message is that "McKinley" will serve us the the American people (Uncle Sam) whatever we want. Another opinion is that the nation wants to expand and McKinley would help, this is pretty similar to the other one. The techniques used in this political cartoon is symbolism and analogy. The labeling comes from the towel held from the waitress that says McKinley. The reason to say symbolism is because the waitress symbolizes McKinley and Uncle Sam could symbolize the people. So overall, this does symbolize the Spanish American War. But it also does not be to specific to understand.
